EAST BRIDGEWATER The last game of Sumner’s basketball season was played in our own gym. This game, like the rest of the home games, was fairly well attended. This end-of-the-sea- son game was a credit to S. H. S. Al- though East Bridgewater won the game by a fairly large margin, there were several times when it looked very much as if the S. H. S. would jump into the lead, showing that they have been growing in basketball intelligence and adeptness. The S. H. S. boys played the best game of their 1929 season. The passing of the home team was very much in advance of any that they had previously done. Morey and Pillsley worked hard and well for East Bridgewater while the whole of S. H. S. worked their heads off playing a fine game. S. H. S. noted the absence of Waters who was con- valescing from a recent illness and was not allowed to play the entire game. Personnel and Points: Dalton, 12; Sears, 4; McKinley, 4. Referee — Roberts. Final Score — E. Bridgewater 44. SUMNER-NORWELL AT HOLBROOK The second game of the season was played in S. H. S. gym with Norwell. Af- ter a fast game the Norwell boys won out by a fairly safe margin, but nevertheless, they had to work hard for every point they got. Even though S. H. S. suffered a con- siderable setback from West Bridgewater, the game was well attended showing that school spirit was and is not entirely lack- ing. Filett and Brown starred for Nor- well, while Dalton and Sears put in their usual good work for S. H. S. Personnel and Points: Sears, 3; Dalton, 2; McKinley, 2; Waters, 2. Referee — Roberts. Final Score — Norwell 22, Sumner 9. SUMNER-WEST BRIDGEWATER AT HOLBROOK The first game of Sumner’s basketball season was played at home in our spick and span gym with West Bridgewater as op- ponents. A goodly sized crowd turned out to see whether Sumner had a good team or not. Those who had expectations of see- ing S. H. S. win were disappointed, but the game was enjoyed by everyone. Although S. H. S. acquired only two points, some real speedy playing was seen during the game. Sears and Dalton, forwards did well on the offense but did not have sufficient backing to get the ball through West Bridgewater’s defense. Crowley, six-foot- six center and captain of West Bridge- water, starred for his team Personnel and points: Sears, 2; Dalton, Tierney, Hutchinson, Sanger, McKinley, Hooker, Hancock, and Smith. Referee — Roberts. Final Score — West Bridgewater 27, Sum- ner 2. S. H. S. VS. CLASS OF ’28 Three basketball games were played be- tween the S. H. S. team and the class of ’28. All the games were played in the school gym. As they were hardly more than practice games, there were scanty au- diences, the games not being advertised. In the first game Sears, Dalton, Waters, Smith, White, and Tierney played against Callahan, Reckards, Jardine, R. White, Howard, and Therrien. Dalton starred for S. H. S. scoring twenty-four points. The final score was S. H. S. 58; Class ’28, 8. In the second and third games the lineups were practically the same as the first game. The scores were: second game, S. H. S. 41; ’28. 8; third game, S. H. S. 47; Class of ’28, 8. For the entire three games the services of McCarthy, referee, were given without charge.

The score was 13-8 in favor of Sumner High. This game was one that held every spectator in suspense. Sumner’s girls sure did prove themselves worth while, and each one of the team displayed wonderful passwork. Dorothy Sullivan, Sumner’s snappy forward, has come into the limelight by her great work as a basket shooter. P. Hutchinson also showed her skill at shooting baskets.

When Miss Burch called out the track squad, she found that the girls did not want track, but instead wanted base- Wilbur, E. Johnson, H. Tibbetts, A. ball. The girls have met on Tuesday and Thursday of each week and have played baseball under the instructions of Miss Burch. On these occasions they have played sides, but mostly “Scrub.”
