Playing Basket Ball Games.

If your team plays a pretty fair
opposing team there is one thing
which you will need above all other
things; that is. the ability to make
short shots-bask ets from right under
the goal. A good guarding team
will not allow you to get any fairly
close shots-they will all be long
shots or very short shots.
Practice putting the ball through
the ring from right under the basket,
so that you can do IT without fail
four times out Of five. What is more,
you must be able to shoot the basket
very swiftly, for you won't have very
much time to aim in an actual game.
In q game a fairly good team will
make about one out OF five shots for
the basket. If you can make one
out of five in your games you will
stand pretty good cnance of not
being defeated.
don't practice too long or too hard
as you will get listless and over
trained If you do. Make your work.
outs short and snappy and don't go
fooling around when you are sup
posed to be prscticing.
While you practice passing the ball
from one man to another, learn to
receive It right. Receive it away
from the body and not In against
1t. II you do this, the ball may be
passed again and passed quickly.
Never hold the ball when you can
get rid OF it. The ball will cause
you all kinds Of trouble, because while
you have it in your possession every
man on the opposing team will wish
to get O. crack at you and try to
rob you Of the ball; 50 get rid of

Girl Scout national headquarters

Many Of the girls, interested pri-

great service they, as a troop, receive
from the national headquarters or the
manner in which the headquarters
keeps the exchange of news from
troops in one part of the country cir
