The freshmen won the game, much to Elfreda's disgust, as she had pinned her faith on the sophomores.

The triumphant team marched around the gymnasium, lustily singing a ridiculously funny basketball song which it afterward developed had been composed by none other than Kathleen West.
"Too bad she isn't up to her song," had been Elfreda's dry comment, with which the other three girls privately agreed.
The Morton House girls issued tickets for a play, which had to be postponed because the leading man (Gertrude Wells) spent Thanksgiving in the country and missed the afternoon train to Overton.

Nothing daunted, Arline descended upon Grace, Miriam and Anne, pressed them into service and sent them scurrying about to the houses and boarding places of the girls they knew to be at home, with eleventh-hour invitations to a fancy dress party to be held at Morton Hall in lieu of the play, which had to be postponed until the following week.

Arline had stipulated that the costumes must be strictly original.

Wonderland costumes were to be tabooed.
