"And there's nobody else in the senior class."
"No."
"Nor in the junior. Ada Mearns could play well, if she would only try, but she won't bother. Now what do you think about your own class?"
"Could Doris Sands possibly——?"
"Marjorie!" reproved Miss Phillips. "You're letting your personal feelings enter into the consideration. Doris Sands is very sweet and very capable, but—she's no hockey player!"
"That's true," admitted Marjorie. "Well, how about Evelyn Hopkins? She never seems to get anything."
But again the teacher shook her head. "Evelyn doesn't go about things right," she answered. "Individually, she's a good player, but she's miserable in team work. Evelyn plays selfishly."
Marjorie smiled; Miss Phillips seemed to sum up the girl's character correctly.
"Of course, Mae's new; do you think she will make good, Captain?"
