The Basket Ball girls met on Mon
day. Sept. 12, and organized, elect
ing Miss Gilchrist coach and Miss
Raabe. business manager. There were
fifteen girls who turned out to the
first meeting but for various reasons
they have dropped out until there are
now ten, just enough for two teams.
The H. S. girls were not all as carri-
ed away this year with the basket ball
fever as they were last; but the two
teams we have are characterized more
by their quality than their quantity.
The first practice came Sept. IA.
Since than we have had practice
games nine times. The winning team
has been Florence Ortman, center;
Hilda Kohl, Rt. Forward; Margaret
Stenger, Rt. Guard; Roberta Borrill,
Left Forward and Esther Shields, Left
Guard. Their average score for the
month is %. The other team consists
of Rebecca Flynn, center; Florence
Newell, Rt. Forward; Loretta Pow
ers, Rt. Guard; Mollie Flatner, Left
Forward and Edna Hanson Left Guard.
Their average score for this month
was 7. The scores of the last two
games show that they are rapidly
gaining and some interesting games
are expected next month.
The girls were planning on a game
with Benson here last Wednesday and
one there tomorrow, Saturday. But
because of a sad misunderstanding
with the Benson people they have de-
cided to call off the girls games with
that city. The teams have been play
ing what Breckenridge calls "modif-
ed girls rules" without lines. Our
first game will probably be with
them.
Oh dear! But have you seen
any of the stationary of the "Scienti-
fc Fokus Pivot club? You should,
Here's to the long life of this
club" say we all.
The first reports came out Wednes-
day. There were no bad failures we
think. as every one seemed happy and
smiling as they passed out. The schools
were excused Wednesday and Thursday
so that the pupils could at
tend the fair.
We had a good rousing mass meet
ing Wednesday movring, in prepara-
tion for the game Thursday The yells
and foot ball songs went off we'll but
some of us were surprised to find we
had forgotten the verses of the H. S. !,
song. We must practice that up.
The workers are still working in .
the basement of the Longfellow |
but the ventilating is prac-
tically all in. 1t must be pretty fine
thing since so many of the pupils are
and enjoying the change of
atmosphere.
Two of our out of town students
came to school on the morning of the
10Th each wearing red carnation. We
think something interesting occurred
in their neighborhood.
Has any one seen my cat er
rather my tooth? Marg.
Thus far there are seven people who
nave handed their names in for debat-
ng, Harry Nelson, Hjalmer Dohlen,
)thmar Treinen, William Maughn.
Nary Peerboom, Loretta Powers, and
Roberta Borrill. They are trying hard
o get two more interested at least so
hey may have three teams. The ques-
ion this year is, Resolved, that the
titles of Minnesota should adopt a
form of government. :"
