Ashland opened the season with the starting five from last year but the odds were against the team which lacked height, speed and reserves. Speedy Mills was the leading scorer of the team and ranked with the leaders in the Suburban League. Every member of the team played creditable basketball but Ashland won only two games. Opposite page — Front row: John Jones, Hugh Campbell, Coach Pollock, Ben Hutche- son, Billy Babcock. Standing: Jack Stevenson, Ned Taylor, Linwood Attkisson, Paul Reid. The first junior varsity team ever formed at Henry Clay High School was organized in basketball this year. Every member of the team hustled and had real basketball spirit. Lack of practice dimmed their chances against their op- ponents who had a gymnasium in which to practice. In the middle of the sea- son, B. Reid and L. Attkisson became members of the varsity. Every game the team played was close but Ashland never came out on top. The team gave good account of itself in every game it played. 43

First row: Polly Ayers, Manager, Carlene Mitchell, Diana Curtis, Shirley Mallory, Janet Geis, Anne Merritt, Anne Turner, Carolyn Smith, Joan Tyson, Hilda Powers, Betty Lead- better, Corrie Gillespie, and Miss Hodgson. Second row: Lois Attkisson, Jean Mallory, Betty Lou Sykes, Pat Blair, Louise Teibel, and Marie LaFoon, Manager. Another season has passed and the Eaglettes of Henry Clay have completed another successful year with three wins and one tie. With only eighteen girls out for the squad, we take our hats off to them for keeping fine spirit and sportsmanship. Monogram winners who returned this year were Joan Tyson, Anne Turner, Hilda Powers, Anne Merritt, Ann Mallory, Janet Geis, Carolyn Smith, and Corrie Gillespie. We are very sorry we are going to lose some of our star players: Ann Mallory, who held down right fullback; Betty Leadbetter, our plunging right inner; Anne Merritt, our fast left wing; Janet Geis, who was always there to back up the forward line, and last but not least Carolyn Smith, our impassable goalie, who played a large part in keeping the opposing team’s score down. With most of our starting lineup leaving this year, we still have the rest of our players, good will and determination to keep our record un- defeated. 44
