They met twice a week for the purpose of vocal training. MalHwg great progress this year, the second year they have had music in school the girls were able to give and make a success of an operetta, THE LOVE PIRATES OF HAWAII, and to furnish entertainment for many school and church programs. The senior girls met at the homes of the members semi-monthly when reports were given relative to the origin and perfection of music. These meetings were designed to develop musio apprecia- tion for which the time in school was not sufficient. Dues were collected amounting to twenty-five cents a year for the purpose of buying sheet music for class work. The officers for the senior club which was made up of any high school girls interested in music were: Phyllis Wickwire, president; Rae Marie Mongreig, vice president; Geraldine Spear, secretary and treasurer. The junior club was made up sixth, seventh, and eighth grade girls. Their officers were: Dorothy Fiedler, president; and Bonnie Greiffendorf, secretary and treasurer. 20

In this period it won two games of a three game series against Deoatur in a contest for Southern Michigan championship with the unusual scores of 7 to 6 and 2 to 0. They never were defeated by a county team in this period. The line-up was as follows: left forward, Hope Anderson; right forward, Ruth Wishart; right guard, Helen Zick; left guard, Sophia DeMorrow; jumping center, Clara Hoge; and side oenter, Loretta Zick. Mrs. Myers was coach. At this time there was no new school building and, as the old school building had no gymnasium, they played in the township hall and always drew a capaoity crowd. In those days basketball tournaments were not organised as they are now. There were no preliminary tournaments in whioh contestants were eliminated. Also no trophies were awarded. Since that time some changes have taken place. Hope Ander- son is now Mrs. Gus Jasper of Stevensville, Sophia DeMorrow is now Mrs. Ralph Klackle of Bridgman, Helen Zick is Mrs. Nelson Miles of Holland, Clara Hoge is Mrs. Warren Schaffer of Baroda, and Loretta Zick is Mrs. Robert Coe of Chicago. 19
