l l GIRLS' BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS Top row: Hatfield Nickerson. XVilson, Hurlock, Rohen. Coach VVood. Lower row: Bates, Titcoinlx, Bostrom, K. Gilland, Taylor, M. Gilland. Girls' Basketball As a farewell token of her esteem, Mado- moiselle La Basketball crowned Coach Charles Wood and his girls with the mythi- cal championship of the Pine Tree State. Again the star was lanky lfllsa Bostrom. who used her six foot frame to good advant- age in popping the pill through the net so frequently that the local fans usually left the gymnasium with a noted stiti'ness in the neck from looking so often from the nets to the scoreboard. Teamed with Slug , the highest scoring girl hasketeer in all New ldngland. were Arlean Taylor, a fine floor- mun and a good drihhler, and Katherine tlilland, who not infrequently brought down the house with amazing shots from all corn- ers of the court. ln the back court, Shirley Titcomh, Mar- ion Gilland, and Donna Hates were mighty stalwarts. Throughout the season, Rena llatfield, .lanette Hallett, and Betty llurlock were constantly pushing the regulars and turned in many praiseworthy perform- anees. 'Phe shining spots in an undefeated re- cord were the win against the highly favor- ed Calais sextet--previously unbeaten in two successive seasons, the win over a fine Brewer hall team, and the first win over the Stearns lassies at litillinovliet.
