she would be one of the "good" girls
of the school, as she always had such
an innocent appearance. However, we
soon discovered that she was always
ready for a "lark" with the rest of us.

Nevertheless,
for
this
dark-haired,
dark-eyed maiden, a good time does
not suffice. When she attempts to do
a thing, she docs it and does it right.
Evelyn is one of those true, constant
friends, well worth having, who are so
rare and hard to find.
We did think that Evelyn's mind was
unmolested by thoughts of the opposite sex, but we changed our thoughts,
inasmuch as her favorite pastime is
waiting at the mail box. Never mind,
Evelyn, that's all we'll say about it!
As a student, she ranks with the best,

and posters for this great event. The play was very well directed by Prof. George J. Keller.

As was above stated the tournament originated in 1922 w4ien four teams Berwick,

During this tournament each team played every other team.
The spring of 1923 saw six teams competing for honors. Berwick, Bloomsburg, Hanover,
Newport, Plains, and Trevorton were the entrants and for the second successive year Newport
won the cup. The winners of the opening contests played an elimination contest to determine
the victor. A consolation series was played by the teams losing the first set of games.
Last spring the teams increased to eight Berwick, Bloomsburg. Hanover, Kingston, NewTrevorton, and Wilkes-Barre sending reliable quintets into the fray. WilkesBarre was the winning team. Because of tlie number of teams entered, the tournament was

"Ev"
is another one of the Edwardscrowd. When we first met Evelyn, we were under the impression that
she would be one of the "good" girls
of the school, as she always had such
an innocent appearance. However, we
soon discovered that she was always
ready for a "lark" with the rest of us.
ville
Nevertheless,
for
this
dark-haired,
dark-eyed maiden, a good time does
not suffice. When she attempts to do
a thing, she docs it and does it right.
Evelyn is one of those true, constant
friends, well worth having, who are so
rare and hard to find.
We did think that Evelyn's mind was
unmolested by thoughts of the opposite sex, but we changed our thoughts,
inasmuch as her favorite pastime is
waiting at the mail box. Never mind,
Evelyn, that's all we'll say about it!
As a student, she ranks with the best,
and we all prophesy great success for
her in her chosen profession, hoping
that her song of life will not be a solo,

seventh, eighth and ninth grades of the training school were busy making costumes, scenery
and posters for this great event. The play was very well directed by Prof. George J. Keller.

During this tournament each team played every other team.
The spring of 1923 saw six teams competing for honors. Berwick, Bloomsburg, Hanover,
Newport, Plains, and Trevorton were the entrants and for the second successive year Newport
won the cup. The winners of the opening contests played an elimination contest to determine
the victor. A consolation series was played by the teams losing the first set of games.
