THE CHRONICLE 49 GIRLS' JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL M. Doiron, B. Thayer, R. Doughty, P. Conley, H. Verrill, C. Swallow, J. Edmunds, J. Curtis, M. Gordon, J. Russell, Miss Laverty. The South Paris Junior Varsity girls started their season against the Bridg- ton lassies in the Paris gym. The girls seeing action in the game were Swallow, Edmunds, Doughty, and Thayer for forwards, Conley, Curtis and Russell for guards. The score at the end of the first quar- ter was 12-2 with the Paris girls in the lead. But by the end of the second quarter the Bridgton girls seemed to have found the basket and brought the score up to 12-11. The third quarter proved to be very interesting. At the end of the quarter the score was 17-17. The first part of the fourth quarter the score remained close, but in the closing minutes the Bridgton girls pulled away, and the game ended 29-23, with Bridgton the winners. Doughty was high scorer with 10 points. A few weeks later the girls traveled to Bridgton. The girls playing in the game were-forwards: Edmunds, Thay- er, Doughty, Verrillg guards: Gordon, Conley, Curtis, Russell, Swallow. The first quarter our girls held them and the score was 4-4, but for the re- mainder of the game it was Bridgton all of the way. The final score was 30-10 with Bridgton winning. The good school spirit shown by the girls throughout these games gives much credit which the scores do not indicate.
