BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS - Left to right: ROW i: Rita Ruiz, Wilma Jean Lund, Betty Callison. ROW 2: Virginia Cortez, Ann Macpherson, Jeanne Yerty, Marilyn Lee. Girls' sports began with the basketball season in November. The seniors, who had dominated this sport since their sophomore year, again held the field cmd carried off the championship. Following the champs were the iuniors, sophs, and frosh. Wilma Lund and Betty Callison, manager and assistant man- ager, respectively, chose the teams. The varsity was selected by the team captains. ' ln speedball, which was played during December, the juniors, not to be denied, won the first of their two championships. They showed a team too powerful to be stopped and finished ahead of the seniors, sophomores, and the inevitable tail-enders, the freshmen. Speedball was managed by Betty Lendrum, who was assisted by Esther Carrillo. Team captains chose Lillian Mizutani, Sarah Swingle, Sue Cooper, Rita Ruiz, Wilma Jean Lund, Rachael Torres, Esther Torres, Esther Carrillo, Kathy Sharr, Sue Van Blaricom, Phyllis Sharr, and Mary Carrillo, for the speedball varsity. With the coming of spring the rattle of bats and the sound of balls smacking in gloves revealed that baseball had arrived. So the girls settled down to the baseball wars, but evidently the juniors settled down the fustest with the mostest, as they claimed their second championship of the year. The sopho- mores pushed by the seniors for second place, and the frosh lagged in the cellar. Marilyn Lee, baseball manager, and Lily Garcia, assistant, picked the teams. Volleyball was played too late in the year to be included in La Conchilla, but manager Zelma Ballard and assistant Naomi Johnson promised a hot and heavy race for the championship. Carrying the weight of striving for another girls' tennis championship for CV were: Sarah Swingle, first singles, Phyllis Sharr, second singles, Pat Salcido, third singles, and Alice Munoz, fourth singles. In the doubles spots were Jeanne Yerty and Marilyn Lee, first doubles, and Amelia Callaway and Esther Car- rillo, second doubles. Stepping in when regulars on the team were unable to play were Virginia Rector, Pauline Chiriaco, Carolyn Brumwell, and Janis Poates, subs. Q Because La Conchilla went to press before the girls' tennis season got well under way, the results of only one match were known. In their first encounter, Beaumont was annihilated, 21 to 4. ln May archery, badminton and ping-pong were in the sports spotlight around the girls' gym. Between looking for arrows and showing the girls how to hold their bows, Ann Macpherson, archery manager, as- sisted by Virginia Schrock, chose the archery team. Dorothy Rivera, assistant badminton and ping-pong manager, climaxed the sports season with her selection and supervision of the girls on the badminton andvping-pong ladders. Coaches of girls' sports were Miss Jean Stewart, Miss Carolyn Fisher, first semester, and Mrs. Betty Hoff, second semester. PAGE 79
