Junior Basketball Team CKay Aldredj This season was a successful one, but unfortunately we were unable to place first in the league. We took second place however, and are still looking forward to a more successful season next year. Our team this year was in competition with Lindsay and Uxbridge. The first 'a Q was played in Port Perry against Uxbridge and proved to be the best game for the fans. The last few minutes caused our defeat, as Uxbridge came from behind to win the game 26-25. We won two out of the four league games played, thus placing second behind Lindsay and ahead of Uxbridge. We also won three exhibition games which were played with Oshawa Central Juniors at Oshawa, Whitby juniors at Port Perry, and O. C. V. I. fOshawa Collegiate and Vocational Institute? Juniors at Port Perry. Jean Williams was our star forward and Vera Howsam proved to be our most effective guard. We are sure that everyone did their best and enjoyed playing every game.

Full of life for the day ahead, the girls met at the school on Saturday morning. We left Port at approximately ten-thirty arriving in Uxbridge just in time to be notified that we were to play right away against Pickering's WAN team. Port'sNAN team played th's girls and we won 23-3. This proved to be a very good game. Next the HBH team of Port Perry played Uxbridgels NEW team and Port was defeated 23-6. Tnis was an excellent game and even if we lost, our girls were good sports to the finish There were many contests betweei the other schools, before we played our next games. The next exhibition of interest to us took place when our first team played Richmond Hill. The teams were about evenly matched throughout the games until Richmond Hill got a couple of free shots and won the game l3-lO. . when the fanal tallies were made, it was announced that the tournament winners were Uxbridge, who truly deserved it.
