Bright light ing in the Library and the soft glow of a candle in Mac Cave! Stimulating formal debates and hard fought Basket- ball and Volleyball games! The inspired and profes- sional presentation of " Anne of Green Gables " and " As You Like It " , and the spontaneous gaiety of the Miss Alma Contest and the Swimming Meet! These are but few of the many contrasts which I hope will serve to make this a memorable year to each of you. May you forget the disappointments, the homesick- ness when letters or telephone calls did not come as expected, and remember the joys, the good friend- ships, the pranks, and the glimpse you caught of what you ' d like to be — new goals, new aspirations, new visions. Those of you who are our 1968 Graduates: " You start another chapter in your life. Your Alma days will soon be but memories. With flaming courage and a heart of love. Go fight the battle dauntlessly and well. May every motive, thought and deed Lead you in Christ-like, selfless service To your fellow-man. " Seek truth, show consideration for others, and try always to do your best. The good wishes of all the Staff will follow you wherever you may go. We like to hear of your triumphs, your new names and your activities, and a warm welcome awaits all those who are returning next September. Have a wonderful vacation. Allen County PMt iM 900 Webster Street PO Box 2270 Fortmyne, IN 46801-2270 Sincerely, Flora Sifton Ifvleddaae ZJ-rom JJ d c one Among the periodicals in my library the ALMAFILIAN performs a unique service. When I turn its pages I am reminded of girls who have played an important part in the day to day life of this school, of events that have brought happiness and interest: a birth- day party, a C. G. I. T. supper, the gymnastic display, the Confirmands ' weiner roast, " Anne of Green Gables " , the snow sculpture, the formal and many other such " happenings " . I am reminded, too, of the patient effort that has gone into the publication of our Year- book and finally I am aware that many of you mill pick up your Almafilian as I do. The Alma family is a large and interesting one. My best wishes to those of you whose picture I shall find among the graduates in the 1968 Yearbook. l Ay wish for those of you who will be returning in the fall is that you may have a summer of fun, relaxation and growth. I often read from a little book entitled Love is a Spendthrift and the thought for to-day seemed one that was worthwhile passing on to you: " There is no law to obey. There is a Christ to follow. " Affectionately, " Betty " Bone =Jjean J il h eddaae 9 ' Dear Girls, Ten years ago this week I first heard of Alma College. In May 1958 I could not have imagined that such a happy and interesting decade lay ahead of me. I do hope that in time to come you too will look back on your Alma years with as much pleasure and gratitude as I do. Some of you have not found it easy to live away from home and to have to give and take in the way one has to if community life is to be plea- sant and profitable. But there are four important qualities which life here has helped you to acquire and without which nobody becomes truly admirable or truly mature - loyalty, honesty, kindness and gratitude. People are seldom born with these qualities. Most of us acquire them slowly. Some of you already have them to a notable degree; others, because you resent their absence, are beginning to see the need for them, for no one likes the person who is mean, who is dishonest in word or deed, or who is constantly critical and always grumbling. Life in the middle of the 20th Century seems very different from what it was in the past, but the need for these four qualities is ever with us. They make us stick to Jobs we have undertaken and try to use tact and discretion in what we say. They make untruthfulness and cheating and the idea that any- thing goes so long as we do not get caught seem shoddy and unworthy. They help us to put other people ' s needs and feelings and wishes before our own and make us thankful for all the blessings that come to us from whatever source. No world, however " mod " , is worth much if these are lacking. Miss Anderson and I and all the residence staff send our very best wishes to those who are leaving and look for- ward to seeing the rest of you in September, sun-tanned and rested, ready to start another memorable year.

The S.C.M. of the year Centennial Plus One has striven to acknowledge Jesus Christ by directing our paths to reach out and to become helpful and meaningful not only in the life of the College, but also in the life outside our little realm. The students sup- ported the Executive ' s endeavours vi ith their readiness to participate in all our projects. St. Philip ' s Indian Residential School, Fort George, Quebec and St. Leonard ' s Half Way Home in Windsor received our White Gift parcels. These Christmas boxes helped to add joy to the Festive Season of our small friends in Mrs. Spencer ' s class, and the men of St. Leonard ' s were very appreciative of our gifts. Our Help Feed the Hungry Campaign was met with a heart-warming response from the girls and we were able to send $80.00 to the M M fund of the United Church of Canada. Candlelighting is a highlight of the school year and the inspiration and warmth this service imparts is often in the quiet thoughts of each participant. This service enabled us to send $100.00 to Mrs. Walton Tonga in Hong Kong and $50.00 to the Means School for girls in Angola. The new year brought a discussion on the Use and Abuse of Drugs. The topic was ably handled by Dr. Beacock of Hamilton, Dr. Turner of Toronto, Rev. G. Elliott of Lambeth and Mr. Moore, Probation Officer in St. Thomas. Rev. Anne P. Graham led our Ash Wednesday Communion Service. This was the first of our special Lenten Services which were held on Wednesday evenings, in the chapel, by candlelight. These were con- ducted by groups within the school and by Mrs. L. Nichols, a former teacher at Alma. The S.C.M. Executive is grateful to Miss Bone for her help and ever present guidance in the carry- ing through of our different plans. We also wish to thank the staff and students for their support of our achievements. To all of you we wish happiness in the good years ahead. Sincerely, Maureen Masecar, President.

Our first regular meeting was held on September 20th, with 30 members present. Our executive for the first term was: Jane Binkley, President; Deirdre Irwin, Vice-President; and Randi Winchell, Secretary-Treasurer. Our second term election saw Jane re-elected President; Valerie Fleming, Vice-President; and Gloria Stec, Secretary-Treasurer. Again this year we continued to sponsor Mac Cave and we are grateful to many local young people who have provided entertainment for us. Our visits to the Highland Lodge at Thanksgiving and Christmas and our Friendco Young People ' s Pool Party and dance kept us busy in planning and preparation. Our St. Patrick ' s tea was once again a success this year. Our thanks to all those who helped us make it so. Jane Binkley President 27 csDramatic L Iud This year we had a large number of enthusiastic members. Without their sup- port we could not have presented the great variety of small recitations and plays that we did. Our major Christmas play was " Ann of Green Gables, " by Alice Chadwicke. The actors displayed great ability and the entire audience thoroughly enjoyed the production. The leading role was skillfully played by Jane Bell. " The Littlest Angel " and " The Littlest Shepherd " were presented as part of the Christmas celebrations. Members of the club did readings in the chapel throughout the year. The major spring play is to be " As You Like It " which we hope will be performed in the Amphitheatre. We would like to thank Miss Cutler for her competent direction and for teaching the girls the artful skills of stage makeup and acting technique.

The purpose of the Library Club is to keep the Library in excellent condition. With the help of Mrs. Sanders the members have prepared books to be put in the shelves by classifying them, put cards on the back covers and allotted each book a space on the shelves. The student gave up their noon hours and free time after school to sort out many returned books and they filed the cards of the outgoing books. The Club visited the St. Thomas Public Library this year. It proved to be very worth- while. We would like to thank throughout the year. Irs.

We have about twenty- five members. The Art Club visited the Detroit Art Institute and the Parkspin Woollen Mill this year. Both trips proved to be very rewarding. The members worked on dance decorations, copper enamelling, and many Christmas decorations for the school. We spent most of our time on clay sculptures, water colours and oil paintings. In the spring we visited the Ontario College of Art. This excursion was quite success- ful. We would like to thank Miss Haslett for her helpful guidance th roughout the year.

We have had several debates on such topics as the control of firearms and the use of hallucinatory drugs. A debate on Vietnam was held before the entire school just prior to our February free weekend. The motion, " The United States ' presence in Vietnam is necessary for the continuation of democracy within the free world " , was defeated. IVlrs. J.M. Douglas, Mrs. E. Douglas, and Mrs. Strelioff acted as judges and many interesting comments were made from the floor of the house. Another debate was held before our Easter vacation on the major question of Quebec separatism. Our membership was small this year, but the support was very loyal. This year ' s Debating Club hopes that next year ' s will continue to have as much fun as it did this year. The executive and members of the Debating Club would like to thank Mrs. Muri- son for her helpful advice throughout this past year.

At the request of the students a Religious Discussion group was formed this year and meetings were held each Wednesday evening at nine-fifteen. Coffee and the informal discus- sion provided a relaxing but thought-provoking experience. Discussions centred around: the Educational System, Life After Death, Moral Stand- ards, Religious Beliefs, and the Christian Community. Valerie Fleming was the organizer of the group and since there was no elected execu- tive she undertook unofficial responsibility for the group. All staff and students were wel- come to join this group. Val Fleming 33 LITERM cJ i it Lierari f As in past years, the Almafilian again sponsored a literary contest to en- courage tfie students to try thieir hand at composition. The response was most active in the poetry division. The prose has been submitted by Mrs. J.IVI. Douglas from senior school essays. Our thanks to Mrs. J.M. Douglas and Mrs. E. Douglas who so kindly judged the entries and our congratu- lations to the winners. It has been my pleasure to be in charge of the literary department. Susan Mitchell Literary Committee Chairman. FIRST PRIZE (Poetry) THE UNBORN by Jan Sinclair iVIy tiny child; sweet innocence All hushed and peacefully conceived within my wonnb, What fate will rule your presence here amongst mankind? You patiently await that moment of your first breath of life; But, papa and I weep sorrowfully. You are made like one of us and fate has already Set the pattern for your life. We are but living symbols of unworthiness. Never freely to pace this earth; to breathe the air; To feel the sun; to know fraternity. Always, we must bitterly defend the right to go on living. Life, for us, is wrought with fear and overwhelming hatred. For we are black and condemned to hell - ■ Our God lies fallen, cold and dead! 36 SECOND PR IZE (Poetry) PRIDE by Susan Mitchell Wounded, crawling like the stricken prey To hide himself and hidden, to lie forever In uncaptured peace but dead. When he lived, he knew no bounds: The world was his; he came And went like the four winds; He ran and sported with the other creatures of the mind Until that final race, when matched by some unencountered being. He turned and ran. Dodging, fleeing, seeking, the hunter ' s arrow Found him but on he fled, stumbling Over footfalls of existence To drop exhausted, bleeding at the threshold of despair In a last desperate effort to hide. That no one should say Love had conquered Pride. DAWN by Pam Taraday The world is very friendly; or do I face a cry Alone in the empty darkness; or was it a sigh That penetrates the soul; or could it be a tear So soft that no one knows the pain; or was it fear And hate, that no one understands? The world is full of grief Not just to some, but to everyone, beyond belief. The world is very friendly; or do we face a cry Together in the golden dawning; or was it a sigh Deep within the heart of joy and fulfilment; or could it be a tear Of happiness amid wonder; or was it fear Or love, that few men find? The world is very kind Not just to some, but to everyone, to all mankind. 37 THIRD PRIZE (Poetry) SOCIETY - WHAT GIVES? by Nancy Sanders It is 7:00 a.m. and a Canadian groans as he crawls out from under his electric blanket. It is 7:00 a.m. and a Chinese has been up since 3:00 working in the rice paddie s. It is 8:00 a.m. and a pampered brat is screaming because he hates porridge. It is 8:00 a.m. and a child in India is screaming too — he is dying of malnutrition. 9:00 a.m. — the school bell is ringing. Children complain that they hate sitting still. In Hong Kong — the same time, a boy is shining shoes to earn enough to live on. At 4:00 p.m. a spike-heeled mother drags her child, squealing and kicking to the dentist ' s office. In Spain a parent purposely maims his child so that he can go out and beg. On Friday night a teenager frets because she has nothing to wear on a date. In India three women share one sari. In a western city white-haired councilmen frown gravely because they have more garbage than the incinerators can cope with. In India men pray for enough sustenance to keep them alive. Canadians view Expo and marvel at its achievements. A black nurse watches her child die of a ' crippling disease and stoically wipes the tears from her face. A Canadian earns his living as a hairdresser. A northern Eskimo has never used a toothbrush. Parents spend hundreds of dollars on ballet lessons for their daughter. A nude Aborigine is doing a ritual rain dance. A horseman takes his immaculate horse to a show in an air-conditioned trailer. A small donkey is the only means of transportation for a family in Ceylon. 38 A businessman can ' t decide what colour of sports car he should buy this year. A Colombian peasant hopes he can afford a patch for his bicycle tire. A little girl wears a pink chiffon dress and patent leather shoes to a birthday party. They were made in Japan by skinny, barefoot men in ragged trousers. A little boy is given an expensive new fishing pole as a toy. Another little boy shares a bamboo stick to catch fish to keep his family alive. In a city store a woman buys shoes handmade in Italy. The man who made them hasn ' t enough leather to put shoes on the feet of his own children. In Canada a woman drives ten miles twice a week to exercise at Vic Tanny ' s. In Brazil another woman walks that far every day to work in a factory. A young Victorian lady sends a perfumed letter to her lover. A lady in Greece can ' t read or write. I don ' t have time to be confused, I ' m too busy just trying to figure out what ' s going on around here! SO BE IT by Christine Kilgour I should live to see the day, I said to my Ed- die when we were watching television, I should live to see the day that something good happens. The same thing every day. Nag, nag, nag. That ' s all I ever hear from that bum downstairs; he asks for the rent one more time this week and so help me Eddie I ' ll go out of my mind. We pay when we got the mon- ey but we just hit a rough time now; can ' t he understand? My God in heaven, Eddie, I said, you gotta get work. You want your kid to grow up to be someone who ' s ashamed of his papa, eh? I mean, you proud of yourself Eddie Zimmerman? We got a good kid, Eddie, and I wanta give him half a chance like I never had. Listen, Eddie, you want I should beg on my knees? Do you think he heard a word I said? No. Sometimes I think he ' s either got no ears or else he ' s just plain stupid, because nothing I do or say ever gets through to him. I wonder why I ever married him! 39 Anyway, a little after that Eddie asked if I was planning to bother making any supper that night. Oyyy! I almost smacked him one! But I ' ve lived with him long enough to know not to fool around with him when he ' s been drinking. So I got up to start cooking the cabbage and soak the corned beef. That ' s another thing! I told my Eddie straight, look, I ' m sick of eat- ing the same crummy food all the time. You think I like what few clothes I got smelling of cabbage? Eh? Someday, I said, someday I ' m going to take my boy David and get the Hell outa here, outa this dump, and make a good life for us. I hate it so much that I get sick when I wake up and find out that I ' m not really in Paradise, but some little hole in the wall in Brook- lyn. And I say to myself, Dodie Zimmerman, you were born for better than this, so what are you doing here? I mean, really, when you think about it, a lady shouldn ' t ought to spend her life in a flat three flights up, cleaning and cooking for a lousy drunk who ' s out of a job half the time. And then I look at myself in the mirror on the bathroom wall and I cry. Really I do. I ' ll never be Elizabeth Taylor, but I didn ' t look so bad a few years ago. For God ' s sake, I ' m only thirty-two and just look at me. I could get into the Golden Age Movie Club without any trouble. My hair! Almost completely gray . . ., and those lines around my eyes. There ' s a new one every time I look at myself. A boy should be proud of his mama and my poor baby ' s gotta come home to a mama that could pass for his gramma. Anyway, like I started out, I said I hoped I should live to see the day that something unusual happens. So what does my Eddie surprise me with? Just like a sleeping baby. just so calm, he turns to me and says, Dodie, my good brother Abraham and his Raezal and their little girl are coming for a visit. And then he turned back to watch the television! My God! Eddie, I said, Eddie this doesn ' t happen every day. Look, when are they coming? We gotta get ready. I have to buy food Eddie; I gotta find a place for them to sleep. Eddie, for heaven ' s sake, I said, will you wake up and tell me what is going on! And my Eddie, you know what he told me? Honestly, I never thought he had too much on the ball if you know what I mean, but after this I know better. He got up and came over to me, looking tired like he ' s looked for so long, and he said Dode, you and me have been through a lot together, but things are going to be different now. You know how I al- ways wanted my little brother to come to America? Well, he finally got the chance, and he ' s saved some money to bring his Raezel and the baby with him. They ' re coming on the boat but it doesn ' t get here until maybe halfway through June. So he asked me to look for a flat for them. Dode, I found a real nice one over on 22nd Street and I was thinking maybe when Abraham comes and we get the business going again that maybe we could find a place nearer to them. That way Raezel would be like a siste r. I ' ve been worried about you, Dode; you don ' t get out enough. But things will be different I promise you. Abraham and me, we ' re gonna work at the business, get it going like it was in Israel, and we ' re gonna have a good life. That ' s my Eddie for you! A lady never had so good a husband. Oy! That I should be so happy! 40 HE ' LL NEVER KNOW by Martha Gladman He was probably born in that house, And there he spent his life. He probably died in that house, But his years were free from strife. How could he have lived so long here And still remained so gay? Without cigarettes or draught beer And speedy highways? No radio, television or telephone Or a device to save his labour. Day after day all alone Without the things we live for. Vietnam was just a place to him. He never imagined a race riot. LSD would never stir Him from his peace and quiet. He believed in God and nation. A first to take the pledge. A proud past for our generation. But today his kind is dead. AUTUMN by Susan Mitchell Red and golden tears unsmiling Drift down the cheeks of autumn wind. Perhaps they mourn another season ' s passing. The loss of warmth that was summer ' s kin. But no! They are not tears of sorrow; For much is there to thank an autumn day - For walks with you through fallen leaves in woodland; For sunshine come to bless this day. To flame the leaves in all their burning splendour. To dispel the cold of autumn breeze at play. To light your cheeks with warmth and glowing To make you run and laugh and say, " God made the autumn for our pleasure. Come, Love, and be gay. " 41 THE LAST DAY by Martha Gladman The bell has rung for the last time. My room Is my own for the last time. My friends are together for the last time. It ' s time for us to go. We ' ve been through a lot at this place, Spent years together at this place, Loved, laughed and lost at this place; But it ' s time for us to go. On this sad June day now. We ' re thankful that we stayed now. We ' ll remember this place always, now That it ' s time to go. But at last We ' re on our own now. Good-bye - - We ' re on our own now. Thanks - - We ' re on our own now. But we ' ll return some day. DEDICATION by Jan Sinclair As you walk away. All that I possess is in your keeping. The hours of joy and laughter spent together Swept away by time ' s revolving arms; These things I wish would stay. But now are gone. Still my heart in fondness Alights upon visions of your tender warmth and grace; Whispers from my heart restore all losses Pouring sweet fragrance upon my thoughts — And these will stay. 42 (Espanol ADIOS by Maria Elena Orellana Que me has dado otra decepcion? no importa amor, estoy acostumbrada, que rechazas mi triste corazon? Que importa si nunca lo has aceptado. Sabes siempre existe otra promesa, y mi ilusion no morira del todo. Hoy? dejame fallecer ya quiza manana Ame otra vez . . . GOOD-BYE (translation) That you gave me another deception doesn ' t matter. I am accustomed, to your repulsing my sad heart? It doesn ' t matter since you have never accepted it before. You know, there always exists another promise, and my illusion won ' t die at all. Today? let me live like that Perhaps tomorrow I will love again. PARTING by Jan Sinclair I turn my back to walk away. My love stands mute and still behind; Alone I ' ll tread, yet I don ' t mind. He ' ll taste his tears - I ' ll just see mine. 43 IF by Susan Gardiner If you thought that I could not see the sadness in you you thought me blind. If you felt that I could not perceive the traces of loneliness in your voice you thought me deaf. Were I unaware of the depression wrought in you, I would ask to see. Were I unable to sense the presence of anxiety I should beg you for the sense of touch. If I were too blind — too deaf too unfeeling — I would not call myself " your understanding friend. " CONSCRIPTION by Margot Tushingham The young boy came rushing down the hill, run- ning as fast as he could without tripping. Bounding and leaping over the short gorse bushes and low areas of heather, that are found all over the Highlands, he scrambled down the crags to the croft below. His mother, looking out a window, saw him coming and realized his urgency. It could mean only one thing. The year was 1917 and the British were fighting in the First World War. Conscription! — of every able- bodied man, be he Irish, Welsh, Scottish or English, And now they had come to Nethy Bridge, a little town nestled at the foot of the Cairngorms. Al- ready the woman had heard of the conscription 44 in Glasgow and Edinburgh but In the Highlands the threat was worse. Who would plow the fields, shep- herd the animals and forage if the young men were gone? For a lonely widow the prospects were bleak. The boy ' s turn had come, that was certain. However, his Mother was going to prevent his being taken as long as she could, if not thwart the English entirely. Her son burst into the cottage, his eyes wild and scared, his breathing laboured and jerky. His mother shook him and explained a plan she had for- mulated. She said he must go and hide in the uppermost hay loft of the barn. Under no circumstances could he come out or make a sound. She would call to him in Gaelic when it was safe for him to come out. She gave him a shove out of the door and called in Gaelic, " Are ye all right? " The answer came back low and frightened, " Ay " . She turned her back on the barn, re-entered the croft and waited for the English to arrive. She did not have long to wait. In a few minutes a rap came at the door and she opened it to face a tall imposing man in the uniform of a British soldier. Behind him she could see numerous other men all dressed in the same way. None smiled, none moved, none looked at the beautiful scenery, the rolling hills, going up to the snow-capped mountain, the rushing burns that pelted down out of the hillside or the blue- grey of the loch behind the croft. They stood like statues, grey, unfeeling and invincible. Only the leader seemed to betray any human characteris- tics. " Where is your son? " he said in English. The woman replied in English also. " He is awa ' up the brae an ' I dinna ken when he ' ll be back " . " Then you don ' t mind if we search? " For a second the woman ' s heart went cold. " No, I dinna mind " , she said. She stood by as the men examined every inch of the cottage, from the peat box to the slate roof. Outside they examined all the small outbuildings and then proceeded toward the barn. A cold hand gripped the Mother ' s heart. They searched the ground floor thoroughly and went toward the lad- der leading up to the loft. " There ' s nothing up there but hay " , she said, " Ye can look if ye want, but ye ' ll no find him up there " . The commander gave her a long cool stare which she returned with every ounce of will power she had. At last he spoke, " Come on, men. It is evident that no one ' s here. We have pestered this poor woman enough " . The soldiers grouped themselves outside the barn and waited for their leader. He joined them and started to lead them off down the glen. As he turned to look back at the croft he heard the woman shouting to him in Gaelic. In reality the mother was directing this to her son in the barn. " Bide a wee minute longer, bairn, the dirty brutes are going noo " . The commander turned and called back to her, also in Gaelic, " Ye can tell him to come out now. The dirty brutes are gone " .

POEM TO MARIA Sixty-seven was a special year For Canadians everywhere, But Centennial was to everyone here, A time to love and share. In distant climes beyond our sight. The woods of Angola Breathe black terror in the night. As men strive for freedom. And from this long embattled land, Maria came to Alma Across all language bars, a hand Reached out to us. Together along the Christian road. Shoulder touching shoulder. We have longed to bear your load. And help you on your way. In every task and every trial. In every single moment, Maria greets us with a smile Full of faith and courage. Throughout the school in room or hall. Class or gym or Cave, Her cheerful laugh rings out for all. Spreading joy to everyone. Maria really has it made When it comes to Math; We hear that in her class she ' s stayed Right up at the top. She sang in chapel her native song. With simple haunting beauty; Memories will remain for long Of Maria ' s " Silent Night " . And now it seems that all too soon. Before we really know it. The years have flown, and here it ' s June With summer just ahead. When many of us finally return, Early in September, You will go ahead to learn The ways of modern Science.

The season began with the interhouse track meet which was won by Warner. Our tennis team entered WOSSA and reached the semi-finals. Both junior and senior volley- ball teams were in the Tri-County finals and made their way to the WOSSA semi-finals. In the winter our attention was directed towards gymnastics, basketball and swim- ming. Austin House won the Swim Meet held after Christmas. Although the Senior basketball team did not do too well, the Juniors went on to Tri-County and the WOSSA play-offs. Two well-executed gym displays were given by the gym club. After the Spring vacation, a badminton tournament drew many participants. Also, our track team made an excellent showing at the Tri-County meet with six of its members qualifying for the WOSSA meet. The Athletic Association held their annual casual dance on March 12. The money for the dance was raised by doing shoe-shines, two bake sales and Mac Cave entertainment. The theme of the dance was " Aquamania " . There, the girls and their escorts swung to the music of the " Small Experience " . The profits of the A. A. will be spent on new equipment for the gymnasium. In closing we would like to thank Mrs. Lee for her patient leadership; and all the girls who supported their houses with such enthusiasm throughout the year. Merry Clark President of the A.

For the first time, Alma College produced a formal cheerleading squad. The mem- bers attended a Cheerleading Convention in Toronto last October where they were taught new cheers and techniques. Throughout the basketball and volleyball seasons they faith- fully supported the teams.

Winning four out of six games led the team to tlie Tri-County tournament in Aylmer. Placing second tliere allowed them to enter WOSSA where they defeated Stratford Central, but lost to London-Lucas. A great season — thanks to the team and the expert coaching of both Mr. and Mrs. Lee. Penny Haveling Captain. 68 } ' amor l olieuball BACK ROW L-R: J. Emerson, V. Pollock, E. Oliver, O. Pearson, W.

Though the maj- ority of the players had not worked together previously, they were playing quite well as a team by the beginning of the league games. They proceeded to win five out of their six matches. In the Tri-County play-offs. Alma tied for second place with Annandaie and Glen- dale. A sudden death tournament was arranged and Alma soundly beat both other teams. At WOSSA, however, the team won only one game in the first round and did not qualify for the next round. Our thanks to Mrs. Lee, whose coaching and boundless energy inspired the team. Jenny Wong, Captain. tennis This is tiie third time that Alma has tal en pan in the WOSSA tennis tournament. IVIerry Clark and Shelley Ledger entered the doubles competition and reached the semi-finals. In the singles, Nancy Porter went to the finals.

All girls who are interested in learning, practising and perfecting new skills in gymnastics are taught and assisted by Mrs. Lee and a few accomplished members. A great deal of enthusiasm and effort have gone into the working out on the mats, ropes, bars, and box. These combinations have been performed for two gym displays this year, one before the Christmas Holidays and the other before the Easter Holidays. I feel that without the encouragement and help that Mrs. Lee has given to many of the girls in the Gym Club, it would not have achieved its present standard. . ,«»,,- ..

They have met Thursday afternoons from four until five o ' clock. Many of the staff members joined the students for informal practice games. An inter-hall competition involving a singles and a doubles championship was held. These competitions were well supported by the student body, and there was a keen com- petitive spirit.

The Alma Junior team managed to defeat every opponent they played during the regular games. Thus they upheld the unbeaten standard that the Junior team has main- tained for the past two years. Here is a list of their victories: Alma 28 vs 7 St. Joseph ' s Alma 31 vs 17 Arthur Voaden Alma 24 vs 18 Parkside Alma 28 vs 17 Arthur Voaden Alma 26 vs 12 Parkside In the quarter-final played in Aylmer, the Alma team defeated Parkside with a score of 28 - 32. In the semi-final against Annandale, the team again won by a narrow margin, 25-23. The finals were played in Woodstock against Glendale. There we were de- feated, and as a result finished second in the Tri-county division. At WOSSA the game was very closely contested between the Alma team and the Stratford team.
