October and November were slow months as far as practice was concerned, but when December rolled around we had something tangible with which to work. This year we had the distinction of being in the Mayflower League, which set us up against some tough opposition. XVe played three non-league games which greatly aided us in discovering our weaknesses. The first league game was against Dover at which the boys went down fighting. The games seemed to go by swiftly with XVrentha1n not breaking any records. A new offense was worked on and we defeated Norton. Once again the games rolled by with XYrentham still not showing much promise of leadership, although our boys were playing their hearts out. It seemed that the toughest teams were the teams that they played hardest against and that they laid down against the teams they were capable of beating. One of the big factors governing our wins and losses was that many of the players were ill at the most crucial games. How- ever, we defeated Norton again. The boys had something extra to work for this year since they were to play Hanover, a team which they could beat, at a toumament. The Game was a tough one but we missed again. Coach Silva feels that next year we shall have a good team, since we are losing only one varsity player. This year our team was young and inexperienced but with this yearls experi- ence behind them, they should have a good season next year. XVe gaduating seniors wish them the best of luck.

The junior Varsity team, managed six victories and three losses. High scorers on the Varsity team were Delight Harmon, with 110 points, and Judy Dumont, a close second with 109 points. On the Junior Varsity Joan Richards made 58 points and Judy Harper made 43. On March 2, a Basketball Play Day was held in Franklin, with girls from Sharon, Franklin, North Attleboro, Millis, Medway, Dover, Medfield, and XVrentham participating in an afternoon of competition. Seventy-two girls from the various towns were divided into two teams, the Reds and the Yellows, each of which selected three haskethall squads. Three games were played and two out of three were won hy the Yellows. This Play Day evolved out of meetings of the coaches from these towns who felt the need of co-operation and similar policies, and who also hy a Referee Pool, ollficiated at one another's games, which fulfilled the common needs of all these schools. Although it is not the desire to form a league, the success of unified thinking and action is an asset to all schools and NVrentham is proud to he a part.
