FZ 'Thggzl 1f952q pmagiaian :J L...x Girls' Basketball When the season of 1931-32 began the team gave promise of a more successful season than in previous years. A word must be said about each individual member. Ruth Nelson and Eleanor Mellander in their positions, as forwards, con- tributed much to the success of the team. Ruth Nelson was unable to play in a number of games because of an injured knee. Her place was ably filled by Doris Mellander, and at times by Mildred Eckstrom. Our guards, Raf- ferty, Rich and Malmrose showed great ability in keeping the opponents from scoring many points. Challstrom at center and Betty Coon at side center constituted a center division which ranked with the best if not the best in the league. The subs must not be forgotten, Geraldine Lundberg, Geraldine Ordi- way, Doris lohnson, Marguerite Lanthier, and Susie Veroche were always ready to light for Mt. Iewett. ,f ,.i,,..., ,..Hv :Q ,I Us '- , Fifty . I I 5 I. 1 V

Fi C1 me C:-:I :The 1952, mm Magiciazl Girls, Basketball BRADFORD at JEWETT At Mt. Iewett on Feb. 9, Mt. Iewett and Bradford met again, but with- out the service of Max Rafferty they were unable to win. The game ended with a score of 38-23. IEWETT at SHEFFIELD Cn Feb. 12, Iewett met another defeat when they went to Sheffield. They completely forgot team work and without Virginia Challstrom our center work was lost. It was the team's off night and the game ended with a score of 24-6. IEWETTI at KANE They again met defeat at the hands of Kane on March 1. Both guards were put out on fouls and the final score was 26-10. EMPORIUM at IEWETT On the following Friday, March 4, Emporium came to Mt. Iewett. But it seemed fate was against the locals. Having good pass work and the good forwards, it did not seem right that we should lose. But the score was 11-8 in favor of Emporium. IEWETT at RIDGWAY Too bad but Iewett just couldn't get going. The team just forgot all idea of team work. And the game finished with the score of 35-12. IEWETT at ELDRED This being the last game of the season, lewett thought it not more than right to bring back a victory to Mt. Iewett High. It was the roughest game of the season. But the final score was 27-22 in favor of the hard fighting Gold 8 White lassies. - LETTERMEN ELEANOR MELLANDER Elly was exceptionally good when it came to foul shots. She couldn't be beat. Though small, she was alert and always ready to do her bit to fight on for victory. Eleanor is a Senior, so Iewett must find another forward for next season. VIRGINIA CHALLSTROM Gin is easily recognized as being the biggest member on the squad. She was a sub during her Freshman year. The next two years she attended DuBois High School. This year she came back to fight for Iewett. Gin's slogan was Never Say Die. She and Coon ranked as the best center and side center in the league, even though Virginia did not always get the tip-off. She is a Senior, and it will be hard to fill her place next season. BETTY CooN UD. B. or Coon has proved that a Freshman is as good as an upper- classman any day. Try and find a better side center anywhere than Coon . She and Challstrom's passwork was incomparable. The squad has a fairly encouraging outlook, since Coon has three more years of basketball. What will she be when she's a Senior! Fiffy Two T is
