EI, ze , We OUR TEAMS By the energy and yitality with which they entered all their games, the ,luniors showed an enthusiastic spirit, They fought hard to win, but luck was against thenl. This little squad was fast, and so it would he wise to be careful of theni next year. The Sophs were exceptionally good this year. The girls concentrated on what they were doing and put together one of the fastest little teams we have seen in action. They were a hard hghting tealn and could not be beaten for endurance. The Freshies were drilled this year upon fundamentals. Pleasing results were the outcome, for they showed the makings ot a fast and peppy squad. VX'ith an- other year's practice, we expect to see something worth while from thern. The First Connnercial showed an encouraging attitude towards athletics, with a resulting school spirit that has never hefore been shown lay the Connnercial classes. They took an interest in the whole affair, and with a little more practice they will he a hard opponent for most any teznn. 'ea isegbg Margaret Monaghan N inety-One

Ninety-Tfu-o af THE TOURNAMENT Five classes, with not an absent member, occupying the bal- cony of the K. C. Gym on April 6, cheering, waving their colors, calling their favorite players by name, and wagering on their teams, announced that the basketball tournament of the S. H. A. was about to take place. just before the whistle blew, the Gold, Blue and VVhite, backed by eight physically-fit basketeers made its appearance on the floor and got in trim for the pressing game. Following, came the First Commercial, decked in their purple and white with the same outward appearance, to do or die, The whistle blew, all were silent, necks were craned. Then, the game began. The fight ended amidst shrieks and cheers for the Seniors, Then the Orange and Black came floating out, a hundred strong, and placed topsy their live mascot, in the center of the floor. They were followed by the Red and Black who likewise placed their mascot and began a few short plays. The game was a close one and it was hard to tell who would win until the final whistle blew leaving the score ll-12 in favor of the Sophs. On April the 7th the same scene greeted us. The Freshies bloomed out in their green and white to try their luck with the Sophs. But luck was against them. It seemed like that ball would just play on the hoop, they simply couldn't make baskets. They held a lofty and unconquerable air even to the end, when the score stood 15-8 in the Soph's favor. The Sophs fought a hard battle in the final game, and won the admiration of all by the grit and determination with which they entered it. The Seniors still held their knack of good play- ing and won the tournament from the Sophs with an easy score. The scores were: I Commercial 10, Seniors 25 Juniors ll, Sophomores 12 Freshies 83 Sophomores 15 Sophomores 4g Seniors 27 fs-QL-X QE
