18 THE ECHO GIRL’S BASKETBALL TEAM Row 1, left to right: Anna McCarthy, Edith Shipley, Penelope Hutchinson (Captain), Lorine Regan, Helen Kelly. Row 2: Anne Johnston, Dorothy Brown, Marieta Regan, Alice Sullivan. Row 3: Eleanor Wood, Carlyn Jervey, Edith Johnson, Miss Louise Richardson (Coach). Sumner 10 — St. Mary’s 63 This game was a repetition of the first defeat suffered at the hands of St. Mary’s, except that it was worse, due to the game being played at the Taunton Boys’ Club, the home floor of the St. Mary’s High out- fit. The S. H. S. outfit struggled valiently but without reward. The final score, S. H. S. 10, St. Mary’s 63, taught Sumner not to again venture out of its class. Waters and Stodder shared scoring honors for S. H. S., and O’Donnoll for St. Mary’s. Sumner 12 — W. Bridgewater 30 The game played at W. Bridgewater showed that the coaching of Mr. Jack Walsh was very slowly taking effect. Seme semblance of team work was noticed in this. This game proved a case of over con- fidence as the S. H. S. team thought that W. Bridgewater would be an easy mark due to the fact that W. Bridgewater had won no games, but once again our team was forced to taste defeat rather bitterly. Final score S. H. S. 12, W. Bridgewater 30. Tierney was high scorer for S. H. S., F.anton for W. Bridgewater. Sumner 18 — W. Bridgewater 18 This game, played on our home floor, came the nearest of any game of the sea- son to being a win. This game was so closely played that it was necessary to play an overtime period to break a tie score. With the game over but a foul shot to be tried for, an S. H. S. player tossed the ball in for the point necessary to tie the game. Because of this deadlock a three minute overtime period was played. As the ref- eree’s whistle blew for the end of the per- iod. a W. Bridgewater player tossed the ball in for another defeat for the Blue and White. Final score, Sumner 18, W. Bridge- water 20. MacKinlay was high scorer for S. H. S., Bisbee for W. Bridgewater. Sumner 13 — Stetson 28 In this game the old rivals, Sumner High of Holbrook and Stetson High of Randolph, met for the first time on a basketball court. The coaching of Mr. Walsh had by this time taken noticeable effect on the playing of the team. The ball was continually worked down to the basket, but it seemed that the ball could not be forced in. If half the shots taken by our team had gone in the basket, S. H. S. would not have landed on the short end of the 28-13 score. Waters was high scorer for S. H. S., Nugent for Randolph. Sumner 7 — E. Bridgewater 26 In this game played on the home floor, S. H. S. took a slump, not even getting their score out of the single digits. Al- though the score was not anywhere near even, the team play of the S. H. S. squad was becoming more pronounced. Much credit is to be given E. Bridgewater’s cap- tain, Pittsley, in his fine defensive game. Final score, Sumner 7, E. Bridgewater 26. Dana was high scorer for S. H. S., Bird for E. Bridgewater. Sumner 10 — Sharon 26 This game with Sharon on our home floor showed us the best scholastic guard that had ever played on that floor. Hagen of Sharon was, although not scoring an astounding number of points, the backbone of his team. S. H. S. played a good offen- sive game, but, as in previous games, many close shots failed to be counters. S. H. S. was not so good on the offense due to Hagen’s marvelous playing. The game ended with the score Sumner 10 — Sharon 26. Waters and MacKinlay were high scorers for S. H. S., Stratton for Sharon. Customer: “Do you carry B-eliminators?” H. Wiggins: “No, sir, but we have roach powder and some fly swatters.”
