INTRAMURALS This year we have been provided with much entertainment and intra- scholastic participation through an extensive intramural program. The program started first in basketball, with each home-room com- posing teams according to the number of people in the room. After much consideration by our three athletic directors, 3 system of rules was made and the tournament began, with all the fire and enthusiasm of an ancient gladiatorial combat. The coaches of the various teams tboth girls and boysl were chosen from the regular high-school squads, and proved themselves very efficient in the manner of handling their respective teams. Each noon hour, one would find the halls literally deserted, and upon entering the auditorium, would be deafened by the noise of the sharply di- vided cheering sections. Between classes, in the lunch-room, on the campus, everywhere was heard that eternal hum, sometimes growing and spreading until it burned every heart with the sharpness of an electric spark. One could easily gain an opinion at the very mention of any one of the participating teams. After many close games tsome decided by foul-shots on overtimei the finals arrived, with Junior boys against Senior boys and the Junior girls playing the Sophomore girls, the games being scheduled after school. The girls game, as usual, was Scheduled first; and as they came on the floor, they were evenly matched in ability and in the estimation of the stu- dent cheering-section. Even though the Sophomores missed several foul shots, after a hard struggle, they came out with a slight margin over the Juniors at the half. In the second half, the Junior girls came back with an even stronger fighting spirit than before and, as the Sophomores missed even more foul shots, the Juniors pulled ahead to clinch the title of Champs with a bare 16-15 victory. In the second game the Senior boys and Junior boys came on the floor with no apparent advantage on each other, and, as the game progressed, it looked like anybodyis match, with neither team exceeding the other right up to the half-way mark. In the second half the J uniors seemed to penetrate the Senior defense With a number of fast breaks and good passes. As the final whistle blew, With ten very fatigued fellows 011 the floor, the Juniors again held the title of Champs with a 20-13 Victory. This closed the Intramural Basketball Tournament with two champion Junior teams. Congratulations, J uniors! Shortly after this a Volley-ball Tournament was opened composed of practically the same teams. This tournament also proved interesting and entertaining and provid- ed much toward school spirit and participation. The J unior-High caught the spirit of the basketball intramurals and requested a tournament of their own. Their teams were chosen and their set-up was much the same as that of the high school. They even went so far as to surpass the high school teams by naming their teams. Some of the most common of these names were the following: Taran- tulas, Bullskins, Reds, and Wildcats. This tournament, although carried on in the Junior High, proved very successful and aroused much spirit. It also proved a testing-ground under the watchful eyes of Coach Brown, for future high school material. As a whole, the intramural program was thought to be worthy of next years trial. May it be successful as ever! T Page twenty-fou'r
