Coy and Demure Boys are "Dates" at Senior Party The Senior class of New Trier High school held their party Wednesday evening, February 22, in the mess hall of the school. The party was a Leap Year affair, the girls having asked the fellows, and many of them calling for their "dates" and sending them flowers. Several of the girls came stag, to insure plenty of cutting in, and the girls did the asking for the dances, giving the boys the sensation of sitting out some of the dances if the girls did not choose to dance that particular number. Anyway, the boys got a taste of the medicine they us- ually feed the girls. There were several feature dances. The girls had previously brought pic- tures of themselves, and also pieces of jewelry with names attached. Fach boy drew a picture, and then danced with the girl corresponding, and the boy drawing the piece of jewelry danced with the girl whose name was attached. Furthermore they know amount of soap.

The heavies played an excellent offensive and defensive game but were handi- capped by the close guarding and foul- ing of the Oak Parkers, losing 31-20. The lights had a closer game and often threatened the Oak Park ponies but could not overcome a big lead which left them five points behind as the game ended 22-17. Captain Johnny Sheldon played a brilliant game both offensively and de- fensively, but was unable to sink the counters with the Oak Park guards blocking every move. Although Bramhall of Oak Park made only three baskets during the game he played a fast game that kept the New Trier guards busy, leaving the center, Pyott, open to make six long baskets. Temple of Oak Park also played a brilliant game, making two baskets and four personal fouls. One of these almost disqualified him when he launched himself into a general mixup, giving several New Trier players black eves and sore knees. Meese of Oak Park managed to keep clear of the fouls. One foul which occurred often was "clipping," which could send a man out of a foot- ball game with a twenty-five yard penalty. "Chick" Markley and Steve Plow- man played their usual close guarding game, keeping Bramhall and Bernard from scoring too many baskets. Maurie Nelson played better than he has played all month, keeping clear for shots and passing and dribbling faster and harder than any player on the floor. The first quarter opened with a free throw by Temple. Markley and Bram- hall each dropped a basket to bring the score to Oak Park 3, New Trier 2. Sheldon made two free throws to put his team in the lead. Temple Bram- hall and Pyott came back with scores to make the count at the quarter, Oak Park 11, New Trier 4. New Trier came back in the second period scoring seven points to their opponent's six. Sheldon made three free throws and Plowman one and Markley's basket brought New Trier's score up to 11. Pyott made 2 baskets while Temple made two free throws to put the score at 17-11 at the half. Wally Miller dropped two baskets and Nelson one in the third quarter as Plowman went out on four per- sonals. Pyott, Temple and Bernard each dropped a counter, making the third quarter score, New Trier 18 Oak Park 24. The local boys were fighting hard to overcome a lead and the game looked bad for Oak Park, but the lead was too great and every time a New Trier man scored, Pyott would come back with an equal tally. The last quarter was hopeless and the game ended 31-20. The lightweight encounter was a fast and even struggle. Oak Park broke away to an early lead and though New Trier outplayed them in the last part of the game, the lead was too great. Taylor of Oak Park was the star of the game. Even though New Trier center would get the jumps at center, he would take the ball away from the New Trier players for long shots that scored. George Saxton played a pretty game, making three long baskets to help his teams score. All efforts on the part of the gray- green proved useless, however, and the game ended 22-17 in Oak Park's favor. Mr. and Mrs. Robert H.
