Wheeling high this winter would be
hard to determine. The Freshmen five
did not lose a game nor did the
Seniors and these two teams never
met. The Juniors and Sophmores
both lost games but always by close
scores.
But n game was played during
the season which was open to the pub
lie and this game showed the popular
ity of girls basketball in Wheeling.
The match was played between the
Senior team and an Alumni Quintette.
To raise money for the girls number
Of the High School Record, admission
was charged and the crowd that wit
messed the match taxed to the limit
the a. outside the boundary lines
OF the basketball court. This indi-
Gated that the sport was popular and
would be successful financially at
least. The high school lassies came
out the winners in this game and
they will likely come out the same in
many games with other school teams
next season. The class games were
not played by schedule and no Official
record was kept Of the results. .
The class squade during the pastl
season were composed OF the follow{
ing.
Freshmen. Misses Alven HoImes,s
Frances Murray. Virginia Schwalb,
Elizabeth McKown. Sarah Colvig. Vir-
sin!a Taylor. captain; Katherine
Shorts.
SCphmore: Misses Evelyn Ross.
Ruth Harcley. Loretta Witty. Evelyn
Mccoy. Margaret Hood. Jeanette
Mess. Elsie Cook. captain; Doris
Gibson.
Junior; Misses Louis Guild. Anna
~AstGregor. Anna Monroe, Pauline
Beuter. Elizabeth Hugus. Captain;
Sarah Jackson.
Senior: Miss Mary McNash, Ruth
Holden, Elizabeth Bushheld. Lila
Clator. Jennie Bolton. Elsie Wilson,
Mary Bauer. Sarah Wrestling.
Tho girls rave closed the season
for this term Of school. but they still
have the use Of the gymnasium and
Cccassionally chose teams and play
games which prove exciting and in
teresting and which keep them in
practice. Next fall the playing will
be started c1rly so that the girls try
ing out for the school and class teams
can be seasoned players by the time
that the girls Of other schools are
beginning TO practice.

Christy M~athewsOn. premier pitcher

age Of $50. 4 pitcher must he a

N~athewson's advice is best given in
the following:
No pitcher. no matter how powerful
or agile. can hope 10 become a great
performer without being thoroughly

THIS SECTION OF vIR-
GINA.

The work of the big convict camp
on the Midlothian turnpike is draw
ing rapidly to a close and in a few
weeks this important Chesterfield
thoroughfare out of Richmond will
be one OF the best highways in this
section of the State. This road has
always been q dfficuit one for travel
on account Of heavy sand bars and
rough rocky. places
The new road Is of gravel and has
been rolled with heavy steam roll
Ter making a bed almost as firm as
concrete. Very few hills are encoun-
tered on this road and these have been
nicely graded making IL an easy pull
for the teams.
Much credit for this excellent high
way In due Thomas 4. Woodfin, a
member of the board of supervisors.
Mr.. Woodfn was very active in get
ting the convict camp assigned to the
Midlothian road and In addition per-
sonaliy worked up private subscrip-
ton OF s5,o o0 TO help build the road.
Mr.. woodfin is one Of the candidates
for county treasurer to succeed DIR.
Gillian. who declines to run again.
Only about half mile OF road Is
TO be finished and IL Ia thought this
can be completed in two weeks as
most OF the gravel has been hauled
and the ditching is done. A few
places are to be rounded up and then
the big camp win move over to the
