BASKETBALL This season has proved to be rather topsy-turvy for the Malin Mustangs. First, the jamboree was held at Malin this year with Henley, Merrill, Bonanza, Tulc- lakc and Malin participating. Malin walked off as the winner of the two-night affair. Malin placed fourth in the county league, second in the tournament, and third in the district. 54 Hcnlcv . 50 34 Merrill .28 63 Wildcats 37 61 Gilchrist 36 Malin 33 Tulclakc 39 41 Merrill 33 45 39 46 Sacred Heart 63 55 . 60 51 39 60 21 43 64 52 Bonanza 23 49 Merrill 50 43 Sacred Heart 64 52 Bly 34 37 Bly 28 45 39 TOURNAMENT 51 Blv 36 38 Sacred Heart 35 Malin 27 Chiloquin .... 45 BASEBALL Last, but not least, of the 4 trophies the Mustangs brought home last year was in baseball. Malin won all of their games in the county league, then went on to beat Talent in the district. The next game in the inter- district play-off was with Cascade Locks. This win put Malin in the four-team play-off for the State Championship at Drain. Malin lost its first game to Boardman and was defeated again the second night by Creswell. The Mustangs finally wound up as the fourth best. Class B, team in Oregon. Six players graduated last spring, but we have good prospects for this year’s team. The first-stringers back arc: Jerry Macken, Andy Travis and George Evans. 11 Bly 0 3 Chiloquin 0 . 7 Merrill 1 7 Tulelake .... 1 4 Bonanza ... 0 6 Sacred Heart 3 7 Talent 1 Malin 1 Cascade Locks 0 18 Tulclakc 7 Boardman 6 Malin 0 Creswell 7 38

POINT GIRLS A number of years ago, in Klamath County, girls’ intcrscholastic sports were allowed. Several years ago this practice was outlawed, and the point system was set up to take the place of interschool activities for girls. The point method allows competition, but this is within the school. Point girls are given awards according to the num- ber of points they have acquired in various school ac- tivities and sports. The first award which is granted for SO points, is a diamond-shaped felt emblem in the local high school colors—orange and black. This diamond measures 3 2 inches on one side and displays the numerals of the girl’s class. The second award is granted for 100 points. This is the regular 3J4-inch school letter M.” The third award is given for ISO points and is the letter O.” This is a 7-inch letter of felt, orange on a black background and is constructed in such a way that the second-award M” can be placed inside it. The fourth award is an honorary one, and the girl winning this is given a white letter. This is a 6-inch, white, chenille O” on a black background, with a small orange M” in the lower right hand corner. The girl must be a senior, have earned 200 points in a four year high school, or ISO points in a three year high school, and her scholastic rating must be outstanding. The fifth award is a gold pin given to one senior girl each year. The girl must demonstrate outstand- ing athletic qualities throughout her four years in high school. She is chosen by the student body at their an- nual election each spring. A maximum of 10 points in any one activity may be won each year. Any member of a team (intra- mural), who has had at least six supervised practices with a total of 270 minutes preliminary to the games played, and who plays two or three games, shall earn her points. Some activities in which points may be earned arc: archery, basketball, bicycling, volleyball, bowling, dancing, hiking, horseback riding, horseshoes, health examination, table tennis, either roller or ice skating, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track, and play- days. 40
