P. Bagby of the academic department. There were over a hundred taking part in the tourney, and it was one of the most successful of all the sports. It took half of the fall term to decide the winner. The doubles championship was won by Moseley and Weddington, of the engineers. There were twenty-five fraternity teams entered, fifteen departmental, and thirteen independents. The popular intramural sport, handball, was again used by the department. Bradfute, an academ, defeated George Ray in a hard-fought match to win the University championship. There were over a hundred entries and the competition was strong from the very start. The doubles tourney was just as hard, and the winner was never certain. Stofer and Muckleroy of Phi Delta Theta Fraternity defeated Ray and Bradfute for the University championship. The golf tourney was won by Breedlove of the B. B. A. department. He was easily the best singles player. The doubles tourney was won by Downing and Breedlove. The matches were the most interesting ever to be held, and the winners proved themselves to be good players. Their scores indicated their strength. The rifle match was held at the same Xxmz, being won by Tom Hansen, with ninety-eight marks out of a possible hundred. The cross country meet was won by the engineers.

Council Who gives the freshman girls a party at the beginning of each year? What is Orchesus? Who started the Junior Prom? What is Te-WAA-Hiss? Why is there a girls ' telephone at the gymnasium? Why the four extra courts by N Hall? Why a rustic cabin for week-end trips? Why Sports Day for George- town and San Marc os girls? Why better looking sports clothes on the campus? The answer to all of these questions is: W. A. A. Many years ago, the Women ' s Athletic Association was organized to further interest in girls ' sports on the University of Texas campus, and to meet many of their other needs which were apparent at that time. One was more social life for girls, more opportunities for them to know each other, since they all lived in small boarding houses. A party every month, cabin parties every week-end, teams, clubs, sings, suppers — all these were used to give hundreds of girls more social contact with their classmates. Dormitories, additional sorority groups, and more organizations for girls have met many of these needs, and so today, the W. A. A. is launch- ing a program which will develop the activities within its own field — that of sports, and correlate this activity program more closely with the Physical Training Department, and its aims with the general Miss Anna Hiss educational aims.
