THE ARIEL all sides came the cries, N ow is your chance, Frances, Fix 'em good, Hit the basket and win the game, Keep the pennant for Glenwood ! Frances felt as though the result of the game depended entirely on her. If she failed to make a goal in the one minute remaining the game would be lost, and all through her fault. The High School center got the ball and passed it quickly to Frances. She knew that the minute would be up before she could throw the ball to her helper, and then into the basket. Besides, the Monroe opposers might get the ball and the time would be gone before either side would be able to score. So she resolved on a daring throw, and although almost at the center court, she threw the ball for the basket. It struck the net above, rolled around the hoop once, twice, three times, and while all were watching it with excitement at the highest pitch, and hardly daring to breathe, the ball slowly rolled into the basket, followed by the cry: WVhat,s the matter with Frances? She's all right! Who's all right? Frances McDonald. Who says so? We do. .Who are you? Glenwood High School. Q Frances, almost carried off the field by her enthusiastic and admiring comrades, went with a happy heart-happy, both because she had done her best to win the game, and because the old jealousy of the girls was lost in the joy of victory.

THE ARIEL When on the day of the game the opposing teams lined up, amidst the encouraging yells of their enthusiastic supporters, it looked as if it would be a closely contested game. Promptly at 2 o'clock the referee called the game and the players took their positions and the contest began. The college girls got the ball at the first play and after some quick work made a goal. At the next play the High School girls got the ball, and had very nearly made a goal when Marie Brown accidentally stepped over the line. The sharp-eyed linesman immediately,called a foul. The college forward standing at the regulation fifteen feet from the goal, threw the ball and hit the basket. This made the score three to nothing in favor of Monroe College. The ball again started at center and the High School girls getting it carried it swiftly down towards the goal. just then the whistle blew for the end of the first half. After a rest of ten minutes, the teams returned, ready to play with renewed vigor. The High School girls got the ball and sent it speeding toward their goal. Marie Brown secured the ball and easily threw it into the basket, but in throwing it she fell and sprained her ankle. The score now stood three to two in favor of the college girls. Frances McDonald, the best of the substitutes, was asked to take her place. At first Frances was tempted to refuse. Her first thought was, I do not care if they do lose the game. They did not want me to play on first team, so why should I help them P But Frances' better self overcame her selfishness, and her pride in her school made her forgetthe slights of the other girls. So Frances went in as substitute, and the game continued. The Glenwood girls soon made another score, thus making them one point ahead of the Monroe girls. The next point was made by the college girls. The score now stood five to four in Monroe College's favor, with one minute left in which the Glenwood girls could win the game. The spectators were doing their best to encourage the girls. From
