BOYS’ BASKETBALL Marshfield at Sumner The boys from the Cape visited us in the afternoon in our gym. A gentleman by the name of Pratt gave the local talent some pointers on how to shoot a basketball. We were set down 4 to 11. Ohwa! Boston School for the Deaf at Sumner Altogether this was a fast game, it was played hard and looked uncertain till the last. (O how I hate to say this.) We took it on the chin 22 to 30. Stetson at Sumner O my! 0 my! We’re still up to our old tricks. We dropped this 19 to 28. Sumner at Howard Well, this was a game of good “ole” slam- bang basketball that would do your heart good to see, but in the end (or should I say the beginning?) Howard took us 30 to 9 Sumner at Stetson On our last game of the season we visited Randolph, and we were shelllacked 23 to 17. Letters were awarded to Wade Hooker, Leroy McKay, .John Sullivan, Joseph Cnlln- han, Robert Martin, Francis Moran, and Ernest Wiggins. Sharon at Sharon Holbrook’s first game was at Sharon High where a slapping was taken to the tune of 35-17. School for Deaf of Boston at Sumner This game was a heart breaker. It looked as though Sumner had it clinched, but a few long shots soon dispelled the idea. School for Deaf, 35; Sumner, 20. West Bridgewater at Sumner This was not a peaceful game and was very even until the last half, when Sumner forged ahead to take the game 24-17. Sharon at Sumner This game was vastly different from the one at Sharon, and was a good battle to the end of the game, which ended in a tie. In the 3-minute overtime period Sharon won 20-24. Plainville at Plainville This game had many unusual features but Sumner won 22-21. % $ :Je ijs Felix: “Any mail for Mike Howe?’’ Post-master: “No, man, no mail for any- one’s cow.”
