30 The MICROPHONE plied for a berth in the Eastern Maine Class M Tournament. After the teams were com- pared we found ourselves in ninth place, as rated by the point system. Since the top eight teams were picked outright for the tournament, we found ourselves very dis- appointed, since we were only two points be- hind the eighth team. After failing to get into the Eastern Maine Tournament, we were determined to win the Central Maine League tournament. We made a good start toward this by beating a scrappy Corinna team the first night, 44 to 34. How- ever, on the second night, we were beaten by a good Newport team, 36 to 34. Although we received only one trophy and failed to get into the Eastern Maine Tourna- ment, we feel we had a very successful sea- son. The members of the basketball team would like to take this opportunity to thank all school oflicials and any of the townspeople who have helped us during the past year.
