GUeen. JfeadeAA. QinJl ' -Athletic Council The Council is organized to further the interest of sportsminded girls and to promote a definite school spirit. President- —Edith Lambrecht. Vice President —Doreen Catton. Secretary Treasurer — Phyllis Roberts. Meetings are held every second Monday of the month in the Alpha-Tau Room. Each girl represents an organized sport, and makes a report on its progress. This is the first year a Girls’ Athletic Council has functioned in this school and much credit is due Miss Gregor and these few girls for the splendid job they are doing. Jnte ' i- JoAm fioA-hetlcUl Basketball between the different forms was started early in the fall, but had to be postponed during the period of league games. Inter-form Basketball was organ¬ ized in order to interest girls in sports, and in order to train girls for school teams. In inter-form games the referees were girls on the Sr. Girls’ Basketball team. These games will be renewed at the end of the league games which will probably be the beginning of March. Qi l-i ' OnteA- foA nt Jlectff,ue About fourteen rooms entered teams in this league. Games were played ' in the morning and afternoon as well as in the evening to accommodate the different schools. The final game was played between 4B and 2A with 4B winning the championship pennant by one run. Qinti ' 7 iacJz and fyieJA 1946 Here it is at last! News about 1946 Girls’ Track and Field Team. The girls made 127 points at the meet held at the Exhibition Grounds. The Meet was under supervision of the S.R.M. and all events were run off as scheduled despite the cold, rain, and mud. No records were broken but our own Doreen Jones made the best broad jump and Elva Johnston was the best in the javelin and discus throw’s. As usual, the relays attracted the most spectators with Tech, placing second in the Midget and Senior and third in the Junior. The girls welcome all newcomers to join us in the Track and Field Trials this spring. C inti ' tf-o-Ltlall 1946 Tech, gills started out with a bang by handing Central a 12-6 defeat. Twice Luther defeated our team by 11-5 and 8-5 scores. Scott battled Tech, to a 7-7 tie. Central emerged as League Champ¬ ions losing only one game and that one to Tech. All Tech, practices and games were held at 5.30. It is felt that if all our ballplayers cou ' d find it convenient to turn out for practices and games, we could have a championship team this spring. QinJ.6. ' UMlliuXf, What’s all the noise in the gym on Wednesday at 6.30? The Tumbling Club got off to a good start last fall with squad leaders Ruth Wolfe, Marjorie Wrobel, Lily Mearns, Lillian and Lorna Rodgers. We are busy practising for a short display soon. Senior QiAti. ' fiaAJzetlui.il With five teams entered, the Senior Gir ' s’ Basketball League got off to a fine start last November. Central and Tech remained undefeated in the first half of the league. Tech’s only loss was 19-18 score to Central in the second half of tne league. The championship game played at Regina College saw’ our girls crumble under a 31-5 defeat by Central We had a fine spirit among the players and wish them much success next year. Qisild. ' £tuinunin(j. Every Tuesday evening since last October, Tech, girls have been going to the Y.W.C.A. for swdmming instruction. A record membership existed then, but why has it dropped so suddenly? In the Sw’imcapade did you know that Tech. Girls won three relays against Scott? Led by Betty Bingham, the Seniors are practising for the Swim Meet in April. See you there! This has been a very worthwhile club and hope it will continue to receive the Students’ support. Now it’s time for the rest of us to do the cheering for Tech. Cheer Leaders who braved the mud and rain to be at all our rugby games. If they are an example of school spii ' it Tech, has nothing to worry about. fjunia ' i Uo4fA. ' fioAhetfall Balfour Tech’s Junior Basketball team is made up of the smallest and lightest boys in the Inter-Collegiate League, but they have a lot of fight in them. Members of the team are: Jack Leibham as captain, Ray Hewak as our high scorer and Ervan ILarlos, Frank Leffler and Lloyd Stephen¬ son. Jim Lysack is our starry guard and also plays full time of games. Art Belick (Tiny Tim) and Arnold Taylor are the other guards. The coaching duties are carried out by Mr. Holash. Ruxjluf, 1946-47 We didn’t win the Rugby this year, but we should be proud of the boys who took an active part on the team. At the beginning of the year 40 boys, big and small, turned out to try for the rugby team. All tried very hard and when the season opened, plungers hke Smith, Robertson and Prizeman gave opposition a lot of trouble. Bradley’s big boot came in handy until a stiff leg kept him out of action. Then there are boys like Varro and Jolly who w’ere hurt in pre-season practice and weren’t able to play in the games. The coaching was handled by Mr. Mackenzie and Mr. Holash. £e ua i fiaifA. ' fiaAJzeJLall The Senior team, coached by Mr. Craig, is playing a fine brand of basketball, both on the offensive and defensive. Smart, fast passing and driving made opposing teams take note. There are five forwards and the strategy used is to have any three forwards work on a line. The three guards can be relied on to hold the opposition down ' . With tw’o holdovers from last year, Nadoraznick and A to Z, graduates from Junior ranks Klassen, Woods, Stager, and a sprinkling of newcomers, Tech, was deep in there trying.

In the Spring a “Color Night” is being planned at which awards will be presented. Have you read the Award System which has been posted on the athletic notice boards? 1. Red Bands—for being on a room or school team. 2. Crest—For being a member of a winning inter-collegiate team. 3. School Letter—1. 3 red bands—two a Senior team; 2. 60% average—academi¬ cally; 3. Personal qualifications. 4. Cups presented to most outstanding boy or girl athletes of the year. This is a start in fostering more partici¬ pation in team athletics, and it is hoped that in the years to come this system will continue with more athletes winning awards. Best of luck in your efforts. After trying hard for years, Tech’s hockey team finally brought home the Lang Trophy, emblematic of Inter-collegi¬ ate Hockey supremacy for 1947. The hockey team had a very good year losing only one game, that against Scott, and battled to a tie with Luther. The last two games were both shutouts for Fred Smith and the hockey title for the school. All the players join in thanking Mr. Mutch and Bill Giokas for a swell job of coaching. GuAtitUf, Glut For the first time Tech organized a curling club with Mr. Lewis’ assistance. During the Christmas holidays a rink went to Winnipeg which included B. McGillivray, D. Boesch, K. Fermier, and B. Williams. B. McGillivray, D. Slager, D. Wilkinson and H. Lenzin were the rink which entered into the playoffs in Regina, losing to Central 9-7. During the season we had bonspiels. Robinson won the first bonspiel and he tied with McGillivray for the second ’spiel. Crests were distributed to the club members by B. McGillivray. Here are the standings as the league concluded: Won Lost Robinson. 5 2 McGillivray.. 5 2 Caragata. 4 3 Fermier. 4 3 Tulloch. 3 4 Boesch. 3 4 Williams. 2 5 Cole. 2 5 HOME OF THE BALFOUR TECH LEAGUE THE BOLODROME 1926 Hamilton St. TIRE EXCHANGE LTD. “THE SHOP OF SERVICE” EXPERT VULCANIZING — GAS AND OIL Cor.
