FIRST SOCCER GAME
No sooner do college and school girls
register officially and settle them
selves In their quarters than they turn
their attention to sports, the very first
to claim their interest being basketball.
During the opening week at may of
the larger colleges and schools there
are a few preliminary tennis matches,
followed by teas, at which the new
girls are introduced to the old ones
and acquaintance are renewed among
class members; but this Is more or less
of a social affair, with the games as
a pretext for the gathering.
Careful Surrey.
The meetings serve their purpose,
basketball captains and
players make a careful survey of prom
ising material among the new element
and after some hard practice in the
gymnasium they nave a fair Idea of
how thev are golns- to stand In the
ensuing year's games. Not that one can j
judge raw material accurately by this
means, but the trained eye knows the !
essential qualification for turning out i
a good basketball player and the keen
captains can pick out the girl who la 1
quick of eye and movement, two very
important attrlbutee for tha basketball
player to possess, and b sure of this :
advantage In forming her new team.
In some girls' schools and colleges
basketball fields are laid out in the open
and there Is always one in the gymna-
slum or in a building erected especially ,
