Wright’s Girls
In Easy Victory
The girl’s basketball team of
Palmer high school took a severe
cuffing about in their initial
game of the season, losing to
Wright’s Girls last Friday by
a count of 21 to 6.
The high school squad played
whole-heartedly, but was un
able to work out a combination
that could stop their taller and
more experienced opponents.
Many of the present team mem
bers on the Wright squad have
several years of high school bas
ketball behind them.
Laura France of the winners
was point artist of the evening,
ringing through six field goals
for a total of 12 points. Barbara
Small was best for the losers,
with two field goals to her credit.
