In place of the two associations that we formerly had, there being one for the boys and one for the girls, it was decided to have this year a joint association, and the following officers were elected: President — Page Eees. Vice-President — Katharyn Weeks. Secretary and Treasurer — Montgomery Jackson. Girls’ Coach — Miss Ethel Pilcher. Boys’ Coach — Mr. P. G. Thompson, With this joint association we hope to get both boys and girls interested. The girls, as yet, have not played any basketball games, nor has a schedule been arranged ; but they have come out in full array to practice and prepare for a game, before challenging a team. A large number have been attending the practices, but we hope to see a good many more. Come out, girls, and get some exercise before studying.
