Hollstein. Mrs. Ruth Neal, Coach. „UUi Under the supervision of Mrs. Ruth Neal, their coach, the girls ' basketball team made a more out- standing record than any previous Sumner team. Prac- tice began early in the year, and the season extended longer than usual. Out of the sixteen games played only two were lost. The girls bowed to Whitman when they lost by a badly needed one point: nevertheless, the Whitman team knew that it was up against a very strong and determined team of girls when the return game was played and were defeated by 1 2 points. The second loss was to Avon, their old time rivals, by two points, but the loss was made up in the return game when they beat the Avon girls by 27 points. Because the team had such a successful season, it received two dinner invitations, one from the school committee at the Boston City Club, and the other from the Rotary Club at Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard in Randolph. Beverly Paul was the highest scorer with 183 points, followed by Barbara McGaughey and Mary White with 166 and 129 points respectively.

Only one vet- eran, Karl Anderson, returned but George Polisson, George Wagner, Robert Pawlowski, and Rudolph Mosesso had seen plenty of action on the second team and were well qualified to take over. However, serious illness forced Robert Pawlowski out. and Robert Hollstein. a Sophomore carried on ably. The year was not as successful as the previous one. Sumner winning only eight while losing ten. However, during the sea- son, Karl Anderson scored 374 points in 18 games, an average of better than 20 points per game. As usual Sumner entered the South Shore Tourna- ment in March. Harwich, its first opponent, proved to have too strong an offensive and overcame Sum- ner ' s halftime lead of one point to win by eight points. 26
