Starting the year with twenty-two players, most of whom were inexperienced, Coach Schmitt moulded the group into a fast, smooth-running, hard-hitting outht. In six of the eight games played The Owls not push it over. Finally, after Prospect had scored 3 touchdowns via forward passes, The Owls marched seventy yards down the field and Sharon Hill had scored upon Prospect, the first team to do it in the 1941 season. With more experienced players available for the 1942 football season, the prospects for the coming year are brighter and should result in more games ending in the victory column.

Seventeen other schools contended and three days of trial were held to make the selections. In the li-nals, Eva Atchison was chosen on the All-Delaware County first team and Ruth Warrington and Mary Jane Rule were chosen on the All-Delaware County second team. ' The junior Varsity Hockey team also deserves our congratulations for the splendid showing that it made. Its records show three victories, three ties, and two losses. Ruth Warrington and Anna Mary McCaughan were high scorers of the season. Agnes Heffernan is given credit for being a very efficient manager and Miss McBride did an excellent job of coaching and building up the lighting spirit of the players. 46
