HOCKEY The 1948 Girls' Hockey Team of Spring City High School started practice September 13. With five varsity players returning from last year, the team looked good for the coming season. Pottstown was the first to fall under the Pirettes in a practice game, the final result of the tilt was 4-U with Witt, Beitler, Fry, and Neborak tabbing the goals. After tramping over Pottstown in a practice game, the S. C. maidens were ready to open their official season with North Coventry. The Spring City pucksters trounced the visitors by a score of 4-l. The Pirettes then traveled to Bridgeport to meet the Dragonettes. Striking with overwhelming power the result of the tilt was 4-l in favor of our home team. in the third game of the season Spring City played host to a highly touted West Chester team. The visitors handed the Spring City lassies their only defeat of the season by a score of 3-U. Still smarting from their defeat by West Chester, the girls entertained the Upper Merion ladies. The team drove to a 4-l victory over the Spartans. Nancy Fry led the S. C. aggregation with two goals. After three years of tie scores, the Spring City lassies handed Royersford their first defeat. Fry, Neborak, and Grubb racked up the three all im- portant goals to account for this victory over the Eaglettes. Again a hard-fighting Norco eleven was next on the schedule. The S. C. maidens had previously handed Norco a 4-l setback, but the game ended in a 2-2 stalemate with Norco scoring in the last minute of the game. The next game was played on the opponent's field at Berwyn. The Pirettes, determined to keep in the winning streak, rallied over the Berwyn maidens by handing them a 5-3 setback. The hockey team ended the season by traveling to Collegeville to meet the Colonelettes. Again the Spring City lassies were victorious, 2-0. Cap- tain Pauline Beitler and Ianis Place tallied the goals for the Pirettes. At the end of the season the iinal outcome was seven won, one tie, and one loss. This fine record was made possible by the splendid coaching of Miss Rachel Ann Martin and the co-operation of the entire team.
