Arcade defeated Ontario in the semi-final of the tournament, but Ontario came back strong in the next game a11d coppcd the Consolation Championship by defeating Canisteo. In addition to winning the Consolation Championship, Ontario won other honors at Rochester. Teams representing twelve High Schools including Lyons, Corning, and Madison of Rochester, took part in a foul-shooting contest which was won by Ontario. Raymond lJeG-root, stellar Ontario guard, also carried off top l101101'S in the individual foul-shooting contest and received a handsome medal for his achievement, Charles McCarty and Reindert Lammcs also gained individual honors, McCarty was chosen as a member of the All-Tournament Team at Rochester, while Lammes was selected as a guard on the All-County Team. Nine out of ten varsity men of our team will complete their course in Junc,'leaving many positions to be filled when our boys take the court again next year. The task of putting together another championship team will be a difticultuone, but Coach Baker feels thai in Reindert liammes he has one of the outstanding pivotmen in high school basketball, and that another iine team can be built around him. It can be safely stated that the basketball team has carried the name of Ontario High over a wider territory than any other school unit. It has set records,,but, 'better than that. it has always played the, grime fair and square.

IN TRA-MURAL BASKETBALL There is a large group of girls in High School who like to play basketball but are not able to play with the varsity because of lack of ability or experience. In order to provide an opportunity for these girls to play the game, a tourna- ment is scheduled at the end of the regular bguketball season. This year much entlnisiasm was shown during this tournament, Captains were elected and they chose their teams. This method of classification makes it possible to have better matched teams than there would be if teams were organized according to the classes. The games were played during the noon hour and after school. Girls who played on the high school team refereed the games. Betty Maher and Mary E. Hickey acted as managers for the teams. These efficiency experts left nothing undone in handling the business of their clubs. Virginia Page 's Bombers were victors in the tournament and they were entertained by the losing teams at a roast and hike, 101010 init 9:0 E ll l i 4 rl i l l r i I i o .1 I l uv. 0

TI-IE ECHO 01' 1010? GIRLS' BASKETBALL According to the policy adopted for this year, the girls were not to play inter-school basketball. However several games were played with nearby schools that still continue to have girls' basketball. Some of the games were played at night as a preliminary to the boys' game, and others were played in the afternoon. When afternoon games were played the home team served a lunch at the school for the visiting team, and they attended the boys' game at night. This proceduref' is considered to be very valuable social training for the gi1'ls. Although the number of games won is much less than those lost, it is felt that the season was successful in many ways. A large number of girls par- ticipated, everyone had a great deal of fun just playing the game, and fine spirit of sportsmanship was shown among the players and spectators at all of the games. The score was close in every game and the girls gave their opponents plenty of competition. All of the girls that played on the team will return next year, and with the experience gained this season they should have a team that will make a good showing next year. Much credit is to be given to June Eisentrager for her work as manager. She attended the many duties connected with this position ve1'y capably. Be- cause of an injury June has been unable to take an active part. in thel game and it seems appropriate that she continue her interest in the sport this way. Several of the other girls who were interested in the team, but were not playing proved to be great help to June. 'I ll ll ll !! !! u ii ii ai ii 'I
