A , GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Winterset girls were the Madison county champions this year, and they should have a good team next year. Rae Lena Addy, a junior, was a sensational basket shooter. Her determina- tion to win at all timed made her an outstanding player this year. Henrietta Spurgin, a senior, played a steady, dependable game of basketball all year at the position of guard. She used her height to a good advantage and will be greatly missed next year. Kathleen Croft had an exceptionally good eye for the basket and showed un- usualy good team work. Kathleen will be lost by graduation. Theresa Lucas, sophomore, very capably filled the position of guard. Being exceedingly fast, she had the ability to work with her teammates and Will be a great asset to her team next year. Mae Breen, a sophomore, was a very good forward. She was plucky, speedy, and flashy. Mae was known for her 'good sportsmanship. Captain Maxine Harrell, a guard, was an invaluable player for her team. Her faultless passing, her sudden well-timed interception, her sense of fair play, and her untiring enthusiasm gasve her team mates inspiration that spurred them on 'to victory. It will be very difficult to fill her place. Francine Allen, Betty Cox, and Grace Cooper were substitutes, and they very capably filled their respective positions. Won 10. Tied 2.
