For the first time in sports history of the school, St. Joe's girls' varsity team captured the city championship by beating Hammonton High. The varsity team also managed to break out even in the number of wins and losses. Not merely duplicating its 1953 leadership of the county for the third consecutive year, St, -Ioseph's highly polished sextette coached by AI Mulliner, set the pace for further records. Our biggest thrill was the capturing of the coveted title for the first time in the history of the school. Having won team honors with a 415 point record as opposed to 378 for the opposition, St. joseph's for the first time in county annals swept the individual scoring honors as well. Both first and second places were won by St. Jost-:ph's players. Jeanne Bertino was high scorer for the county rolling up 134 points on 61 field goals and 12 free throws. Runner up for the second year, Captain Toni Pullia scored only 20 points less.
