Senior Girls basketball, 1940

By far the most visited post on this site to date is the 12/17/07 post showing the 1936 Bradley Senior Girls basketball team.  There is obviously an appetite among viewers of this site for sports-related items.  So, I dug around and found a newspaper clipping depicting the 1940 Bradley Senior Girls basketball team.  Being a newspaper clipping, it is obviously quite grainy.

The caption is:
