We offer as proof of this the win over Monroe late this season by a score of 42 to 29, as compared with the one-sided victories won by Monroe the last two years. Again, the success We -had in holding the powerful Scars- port team, winners of the county league, speaks well for a team which was rather inexperienced when the season was begun. The record of all games is as follows: 'W. 0. Hermon H. S. at Winterport 33 10 Monroe H. S. at Winterport 24 27 Searlsport H. S. at Winterport 16 23 Twentv-live

1. 'nge Qfversi ec fix league games following. The first game with Searcport proved to be one of the most interesting games of the season, VVnterport finally won by a score of 27 to 26, which was characteris- tic of the other games with Searelport which followed. As Winterport and Searsport were tied for the champion- ship of the Southern Division of the League at the conclusion of the regular schedule, it was decided that a two game play-off would decide the winner. The First game resulted in a win for W. H. S. by a score of 29 to 21 and the sec- ond was won by Searsport 17 to 11. The final count being 40 to 38 with Winter- port declared the winner. On account of the heavy schedule of 16 games, of which 11 were won by Win- Twenty-four terport, nine girls were used more or less regularly. As a result nine girls re- ceived letters. this year. They were as follows:-Captain Dorr, Manager Neal- ley, Delma Clarke, Dorothy Lane, Laura Green, Cornelia Shaw, Rita Whitting- ton, Grace Knowles and Marjorie Ar- buckle. Much credit is due Mr. Abbott for his effective coaching throughout the season. With D. Clarke and B. Neal- ley graduating this year their guarding will be greatly missed but with Cfather- ine Dorr again acting as Captain and five other letter girls from the Fresh- man and Sophomore classes again on the squad, Winterport is apt to have one of the strongest of the girls' teams in this part of the State next year. Record of games is as follows:

It' was declared by many at the tournament to 'be the best game of them all. We feel that the success of the team this year is due largely to the effort and interest given by Mr. Abbott and we hope that he will be with the team next year. Letters were awarded to the fol- lowing players at a special assembly be- fore the sohool:-JCaptain Ardane Whit- tier, 'Manager George Ritchie, Ien Shankel, Thomas Birmingham, Ray- mond Wellman, Dawson Williamson, Ar- drian Williamson, Malcolm Foley and John Birmingham. Of this number live letter men will graduate and the school will greatly miss Ritchie, Shankel, Well- man and the Birmingham brothers. However, it is to be hoped that some of and allstars this year will gradually be the underclassmen playing as midgets able to fill their places. 1 Twenty-six
