BaXtUl Sumner opened its basketball practice in late Octo- ber to start the ball rolling along to what was to end up in Sumner for the second year in a row, playing for the Class B Championship and losing it in the last quarter. The team switched to the newly formed Mayflower league, gained some new rivals, and lost some old ones. They played in the Boston Garden again and won back the game they lost last year to Edwards High of West Boylston. 32-25. After winning two out of two outside games in its league debut. Sumner bowed in with a 52-28 win over Plain vil le and established itself as the team to beat in the league. After winning three games in the South Shore Tournament, and establishing itself as a finalist in the Class B Championship, we dropped a two point decis- ion to East Bridgewater in the last ten seconds of the game. In recognition of their work, in May the team was given a banquet at the Randolph Town House and then journeyed to Boston to see the circus.

Pawlowski. a eer 1 he cheer leaders of ' 48- 49 got off on the right foot which was unexpected after the hardships that the girls went through for uniforms and new cheers. The Freshmen class was well represented. With only two girls back from last year, four new ones had to learn all the cheers and it took time and practice. Nancy Chapman had returned from last year with Selma Anderson. Those remaining were Frances Skilling, Joan Pawlowski. Nancy Colby. Elizabeth Buckley. Selma Anderson was chosen captain, and Miss Doro- thy Mackin was supervisor. Practices were held in the gym or any vacant place. Although the majority of the group had never cheered in front of a large audience before, they did exceptionally well at the “Y” and Armory games which were the most impor- tant of the whole season, with their support and enthusiasm. {24 y
