It was a hard-played game ail
the way but the Panthers, with
their quick-breaking style, were
never behind.

Two Girls' Teams
Remain On Top
By JANE FARROW
'South Huron girls basketball
teams remained atop the tri-
school league this week with two
more convincing victories over
the Mitchell teams on their floor
on Wednesday.
The seniors humbled Mitchell
‘ri-School
with a 35-22 count while in the
junior half of the bill, South
Huron trounced the determined
home team by a score of 50-34.
The win ensured” the senior
girls’ team of their tri-school
title even if they should lose
their final igame. The junior girls
still have to beat St. Marys to
clinch their title. If the stone
town team defeats South Huron
in the final game, the clubs
would be tied and a playoff
necessary.
The senior game was one fast
and furious battle in which South
Huron maintained a4 substantial
lead during the first three quar
ters. At the end of the third
period the score was 29-14 for the
■visitors but Mitchell squeezed an
8-G margin in 'the last frame to
conclude the rally in a 35-22 de
cision in favour' of the unbeaten,
South Huron team.
.South Huron scorers, Barbara
Allison with 18 points, Julia
Gulens with seven, Connie Jack-
son with six and Marion Alex
ander with four, were assisted Iby
■the capable guarding of Faye
Ford, Judy Ross, Marilyn Mar
shall and Marilyn Bissett. For
ward L. Edighoffer led Mitchell
scoring with 10 points.
By JOCELYN HOWEY
The junior game got off to a
bad start with the Mitchell girls
leading by a close 12-10 margin
the end of the first quarter.
iSouth Huron, however, recovered
to chajk up a 12 point lead at
half time. After a fast-moving
second half the South Huron
juniors wound up ‘by whipping
Mitchell 50-34.
IRosemary . Dobson led South
Huron’s scoring by hooping 23
points, aided by Darol Tuckey
with 16 and iMirdza Gulens with
11. The 'guarding of Helen Tay
lor, Patsy Marshall, Barbara Ker
nick and Marie Salmon helped
another unbeaten South Huron
team to a safe victory.
M. Hopf, J. Colquhoun and B.
Curtis starred on Mitchell’s team
with eight points each.
