I could be wrong,but I think that the 6-person girls' game was generally phased out in the early 60's.I remember doing a few games when I first started,and the rules were something else:
1)3 offensive players and 3 defensive players per team.
2)They had a line on the floor about 2/3 of the length of the court at either end.The defensive players couldn't touch or go over the line in front of them.The offensive players couldn't touch or go over the line behind them.
3)Two dribbles were allowed maximum.The technique that was taught was to use a hard dribble and let the ball bounce as many times as you could before dribbling the 2nd. time,or passing-to get the ball as far upcourt as possible.
I remember that the local Catholic girls high school played in skirts that were mid-calf length,also-with bloomers underneath.
