BOYS BASKETBALL Although not champions, the Acorns can boast of a very successful season this year. The Acorns scored a total of 601 points to the opponents' 426 in 20 games played, winning 14 of these 20. Oakville took second place in the Thurston-Grays Harbor League, losing only two games, one to the champion Rochester team and the other to Tenino. By right of this second place Oakville went to the district tourna- ment at Tenino, Where the team played unexpectedly well. In the preliminaries Oakville defeated South Bend and Wishkahg but in the thrilling, heart-breaking final the Acorns lost to the Ilwaco Fishermen by three points after leading most of the way. Three of our men, McMahon, centerg Fox, forward, and Blechschmidt, guard, placed on all-star teams. McMahon received the distinction of being high point man in the league, scoring 150 points in 10 league games and 256 for the entire season. The team loses only thiee players this year-Murray, Norman and Blech- schmidt-which leaves four lettermen and some good second-team material with which to build a strong team for next year. Oakville played seven practice games, winning four of them.

o.H.s. 1932 GIRLS BASKETBALL Back row left to right: Carlson, Mitchel, Blechschmidt, Coach Rosmond. Front 1'0W left to right: Lemmon, Theriault, Gustafson, Bell, McIntyre. GIRLS BASKETBALL The girls' basketball team was very successful in the few games they played this year. Owing to the fact that so many of the schools which formerly had girls' teams had none this year, the Oakville girls played only three games. The first game played was with Yelm. The team had to go up there without Ruby Bell and then Callie McIntyre was feeling sick by the time they got there, so they had to make good use of their subs. Because of so many fouls the other team team lost about three of their players and therefore Oakville had a better chance and came out on the top side. Of course they would have anyway. The next game was at Rochester. The girls didn't have very much encourage- ment from their own school, so they didn't think they could wing but they fought a hard game with what players they had and won by two points. The last game was played at home with Rochester. They came down here with about thirteen players and tried to win a game against our eight all-stars. Even though the home team lost Agnes Blechschmidt in the first quartel on fouls, and Regina Theriault in the last quarter, with a sprained foot, with Irene Gustafson play- ing forward they won the game by a large score. The scores were as follows: Oakville 32 ..... .... Y elm 17 Oakville 16 .... .... R ochester 14 Oakville 23 ....... Rochester 8 -Regina Theriault. Twenty-nine
