'06 ' Basket Ball Team. O I HEAR somebody say, Who are you ? Can you B not tell us as distinguished from the rest of the teams? Behold our attempted dignified bearing, our curious eyes prying into the mysteries of the various departments of this beloved institutiong and our logical proofs for everything that we find in our path. But as you evidently know little about our team, we will tell you whence we came and whither we go. The Basket Ball Girls! How welcome the call rings in our ears! If there ever was a team of which the school ought to be proud of, is that of the team of 1906. Our freshman year was one that we might well be proud of. We defeated the '05 girls by a score of 7 to 6. The doorway was entered We glanced here and there And looked like a girl who Had just seen a bear. To the right, to the left, On all sides we behold Wise looks which bewildered Our stray lambs of the fold. As we progressed in learning, so we progressed in basket ball. We accomplished one of our easiest tasks in our Sophomore year when we defeated the '07's. Then again in the same year we encountered the Juniors, who, holding such an exalted position and having the advantage of a year's more practice, should have had an easy victory, but such was not the case. Still rejoicing and destined to rejoice still more, we entered our third year, supporting gloriously our motto, Ever to Win, wresting the honors from all classes and adding to our ever-increasing fame by winning the right to write Championship after our name. We have gained one of our many aims in life by placing among the trophies of the other classes, ours with the sig- nificant Championship '06. Our many triumphs did not cease when in our last year, the most desired of all, we gained the laurels once more, defeating the Juniors by a score of 6 to 2, which in itself speaks louder than words, and then the Sopohomores by a score of 17 to 3. In celebration of latter events the boys of the class gave us a banquet. Miss Francis Spencer entertained us at her home. Dr. Shaw gave a theatre party. John Keeling gave us a boat ride.
