Forty Farewell Senior Girls To the Senior girls who are leaving this year We wish you luck and happiness and the best of cheer. We'll miss you greatly on our basketball team And our last years together will be like a dream, Our friendship together, our many good times, Our victories, defeats, all stamped in our minds. We've had a good year and our defeats were few But clean playing and sportsmanship made them victori You're leaving us now, so next year we'll try Your places to fill and keep our team standing high But we'll need your help by sideline spirit And in a close game this will help us win it. So come back often and visit long For in Mt. Cory High is where you belong. To Betty Jene, so helpful and willing Who was always her duty completely fulfilling, We hope much luck will come to you In whatever thing you try to do. es too It was always, Betty, come here, or Betty go there, Betty we need you everywhere. And she very cheerfully did the work And never once at her duty did shirk. There is a Senior girl on the team Who was often hoodooed it did seem, Either ankle, side, or away on a visit, But she always had the right kind of a spirit. 'Tis Mary Katharyn I'm sure you know And we certainly hate to see you go For we'll miss your playing and friendship too Now the team as a whole says Success to you . Two basketball girls each Friday night Peddle their papers with all their might. Maxine Light and Arnetta are the girls I mean, And at each basketball game they're always seen. Either in the game or with sideline spirit They iight for our team till the very last minute. Wherever you meet them they're always gay And a kind word to everyone they will say. Happiness, I hope, will fill your lives So goodbye and good luck to the future housewives. Well, well, what's this that I discover Clear in the back nearly under cover It must be Maxine and Mary, you know For to the back of the bus they'd always go. Saving a seat for two young chaps, No room back here , well there's room in our laps. Over bumps, over bridges, or stuck in snow They don't seem to care just where we go. But girls we'll miss you and your pep and cheer And wish we could have you for one more year But if you have to go, come back when you can And be a next year basketball fan. And Virginia Crow, we'll miss you too With your spirit and pep and teamwork too. And there's one thing we'll never forget- How you left your hat on, we can see you yet Standing there all dressed to go in the gym, But with your hat still in place as you came in. Maybe you were excited or nervous a bit But we had a good laugh and all enjoyed it. You're another Senior who will pass through the door But you're welcome at Cory forevermore. In the dressing room, not so much to say But to speak by actions seemed to be her way. Maurine did her part in every game And was there with pep when Friday night came. We've enjoyed your friendship and teamwork too And hope that happiness will come to you. Goodbye Senior Girls, Goodbye to you all And when we start basketball again next fall We'll wish you were back to play with our team But if you do, it can only be in a dream. So coach, each girl, and the team as a whole Wish that success and good luck will be your goal. -Leah, Moe Reese

ROBER1' HU'r'roN, Coach Our next county league game was with Vanlue and again we were victorious. We were trailing at the half time 19-13 but with everything clicking better in the last half, our quintet sailed to the front. When the game ended the score was 37-24 in our favor. We met our former athletes on January 31. It was evident that the alumni team was in need of practice but this game afforded fun for all old acquaintances. The final score was 47-39. February 7 found McComb coming to Mt. Cory. After our first team had rolled up a nice lead, our coach, Mr. Hutton, substituted freely. We have been unbeaten in the other seven league starts and with only one more league game to play we almost clinched the Little Nine Championship by a 37-27 vic- tory over the McComb quintet. More snow and ice and again our game was postponed. We were supposed to play Arling- ton on February 14 but it was postponed until February 17. Even though the game was postponed, it made no difference, for the boys won, giving them the title of the Champs of the little nine. The game was hard fought and for a time it looked as if the boys might have a blot on their unbroken record. But after the half the boys came back with re- newed energy and won by a four point margin of 24-20. At the tournament it was again our fate to encounter and What an encounter- ing it was! Our boys had a hard time getting started the first half but they came back and really made Rawson struggle in the second half for their two-point victory. The score was 19-4 at the half in favor of Rawson and at the end of the game, our boys had run up a score of 25-23. It was certainly a let-down when our boys failed to bring back their first tournament game without a victory. BOYS 22 Mt. Cory 27 Mt. Cory 40 Mt. Cory 31 Mt. Cory 43 Mt. Cory 38 Mt. Cory 48 Mt.
