Girls Basketball Report This year we had no divided groups in basketball; instead we had one squad. This seemed to work out much better than having first and second teams, for the girls had a very successful year. Dorothy and Doris Morgan and Irene Alarble made their share of the baskets. Annella Card and Barbara Iveson did exceptionally well playing, when one considered their handicap of being so much shorter than their op- ponent. Marjorie Smart, Marie Smith, and Clara Colburn made up the three guard combination. Other guards who saw action were Ruth Weatherby, May Eaton, Audrey Smart, and Pauline Albonetty. Guards were plentiful, while forwards were scarce. While we didn’t win all our games, we did win enough to be able to be proud of this year’s team. This year we lose a few of the more experienced girls: Dorothy and Doris Morgan, Marie Smith, Barbara Iveson, and also our manager and time-keeper, Geraldine Kelly and Nancy Cook. But to replace these we have new mem- bers who look promising and undoubtedly many freshmen will appear at practice.
