Summary "The Girls of Central High; Or, Rivals for All Honors" by Gertrude W. Morrison is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Laura Belding and her friends as they navigate school life and the challenges of forming a girls' athletic association in Central High, amidst the prejudice and restrictions often placed on young women in sports. The tale emphasizes themes of friendship, resilience, and the importance of physical activity, while also showcasing the rivalry between different schools. The opening of the story introduces Laura Belding, a diligent and sensible girl who works in her father's jewelry store. She has a close friendship with the spirited and mischievous Bobby Hargrew, who often finds herself in trouble due to her antics. As they discuss the need for more athletic opportunities for girls, the plot takes a serious turn when a prank involving a magnifying glass leads to a fire in Bobby's father's grocery store. The narrative quickly escalates as a misunderstanding and accusations arise, particularly against Bobby, creating a dramatic backdrop for the girls’ attempt to assert their place in sports and school life. The excitement and challenges of their world are vividly brought to life, setting the stage for further events. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
