Howard Fails to Wilmette Girl Scouts Preparing for Contest Hold Early Lead, The Girl Scouts are preparing for a contest between all troops. Troop 2 has been practicing In knot tying and Wednesday w e l:ltarted bandaging. Our captain had us go on a mak e b elieve treasure hunt on whi<.'h m:-tny al·<·idents · occurred to different members of the patrol and the other members of the patrol had to banclage them up with a certain bandage used for that partic ular purpose. The patrol firHt done won a point. . The injuries were this: A girl fell oYer a twe lve foot cliff and we had to haul her out. The funny part about this was that every patrol but one put a on~ foot rope down to pull the J>Prson out over a twelve foot cliff. That was wro I!' One patrol got lt right by tying ~ their ropes together. Next a rabbit hurt its paw and we had to bandage a girl's hand. Then a girl u·ipped over a log ancl hurt her ankle, and while falling, hit another one who fainted. We had to look after these. Afterwards another girl was supposed to cut her ·head and w e had to fix that. This ht>lped us grea tly in learning knotH and bandaging and it i~ also fun.-PhylliR Carleton, 8C Stolp. Stolp Wins Title Monday, November 18, Stolp played their last championship game against Howard 8B. It was a very rainy da v so we had to play ln the gym whtch disappointed us very much. The gam e was the most exciting game of our kick baH season and we have had many clo.st· games. Howard was ahead very much at tht' beginning. The last lnnin~r arrived with a score of 17 to 10, Howard's favor. We were to have our ins now and Wt· caught up, making the score 17 to li. Howard then had theh· last ups and they gnt a run so Mis::; Skidmore said the game was over and we started getting our coats on. We had just got our coats on and were r eady to leave wh e11 Miss Skidmore came up and said t.h t:' scorekeepers had announced the score rr. correctly and that it was a tie and w t> were tQ play It out. Howard was still up and only had one out. That meant that we had to get two outs in succession and keep a girl who was or\ third basf-' from gettin~ in. We were all very excited and w e r e try ing to do our be::; t. We then caught a fly which made two outs but we still had to get another out. This was made l)v getting the ball to first just befo1·~ the girl on third reached home . The ~t:o re ended a tie and we were glad. Thi s I made us win the first game from Howard ~nd t~t: the sec6nd so we win the c hanlJ) wnshlp. -- Phyllil' Carleton. RC Stolp. The studE>nts of Howard al'l'embled In auditorium at 11 :15 o'cloek.
