High has excellent chances of hav
ing a successful season on the dia
mond. There are six letter men back
from last year's team, namely, Frater
Wilson Hudson, J. Johnson Wolf and
, T.i Johnson. Wilson and the Johnson
boys both played in the Twilight
league last year and with the experi
ence gained should make a good
showing in high school ball. Hudson
and Wolf played In the Junior Twilight
and should make excellent players this
year. A pitcher is the big need of the
high team. Marsh and Red Salmon
, are the brightest prospects and with a
little experience should make good. It
Is possible that a few more pitchers
may be found among the new boys re
porting for practice.
(lames are being arranged with the
Mobile high school, Springhlll and the
IcFuntak school teams.

HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS
WIN FROM PALMER
Outplayed the Visitors and Take Gams
by Score of 21 to 9.
By TOM JOHNSON
In one of the best games of girls'
basketball ever witnessed in Pensacola
the girls of "Ole High" defeated their
old rivals. Palmer college, on tho court
at the Armory to the tune of 21 to 9.
' The game was fast and hard fought
at all times and was featured by tho
excellent playing of the locals at all
periods of the game. The girls all
lived up to their reputations -as pub
lished in The Journal last Tuesday
for Mae White shot 15 of the local's
points, and her ability to locate the
old basket counted very much for the
score of the locals. Mary Wentworth
shot six, but as has been Bald of her,
she was free at all times and her
passing to Mae was excellent and
counted much for the point3 the locals
piled up. As for the centers, Clifford
Clark was free most of the time and
intercepted and broke up passes all
during tho game and her passing to
the forwards was great. Mae Cole
man divided the tap with her opponent
but helped Clifford in the center pass
ing and between them they managed
to keep the ball down to the forwards
moet of the time. And as s for the
guards well, the Palmer score tells
how they pVayed. Capt. Elizabeth Ray
did everything a guard of All-State
calibre rhould do, and Loulso Davis
helped "Bit" In the guarding in great
style and played a good game at all
times. Harrison did the big work for
the Palmer team.
The whole team played hard and
showed what could be done by con
sistency and faithfulness to practice
and following the advice of the coach,
and not to overlook it, great credit
must be given Miss Waite for the way
hsr girls played for their teamwork
was splendid and their passing ex
cellent. A number of fine plays Tere
pulled off by her team, one especially
noticeable was the guard throw from
out of bounds in which the ball was
touched by both guards, centers and
forwards .and then shot by the last re
ceiving forward. The ball was passed
diagonally from one section of the
court to the other till it was worked
right up under the goal and the shot.
There was a large crowd out in spite
of the rainy weather. The students,
led by the cheer leaders, Alex Olsen
and George Vlllar, kept the hall boom
ing with yella during the game.
