'President THE YEAR IN REVIEW You don't have to go to hockey camp to be a star player, but ap parently it helps. This year many Kingswoodites caught a Maine-bound train to attend Camp Merestead. Charley horses and exhaustion had no real effect on the team, and because of the excellent training the players received, tney returned with increased skill and strategy. As usual, the season was successful, a tie with Bloomfield Hills High School alone marring a completely victorious record. The team did well, but who was really responsible? Mrs. Houston, of course. Patient, per- serving, and always encouraging, she was the real force behind victory. Hockey Playday at Grosse Pointe University School climaxed the hockey season; sixteen of Kingswood’s twenty-seven players made teams. This set a new record, and “excitement and “happiness’ cannot do justice to the wide-spread emotion of that day. November arrived. Hockey was over for the year, but enthusiasms for basketball swept away all regrets. The teams met strong opposition. In encounters with Waterford and Bloomfield, the first team lost, but the second team compensated with two victories. The players on both teams were good: so basketball was fun and exciting. After mid-semester week end, badminton began. Calls of ceiling” and wood echoed through the gym, but the team's frustration con- cerning its skills was soon replaced by the excitement of victory. Lincoln was defeated. Miss Houser’s bowlers, though not having any scheduled matches, gained some savoir-faire through their excursions to the Bloomfield Lanes. Miss Furstenbcrg and Mrs. Levine had the annual problem of in- stilling gracefulness into their modem dance students. This year under Miss Furstenbcrg’s direction, part of the group performed most credit- ably in the school operetta, “Carousel.” Even in March it is safe to conclude that the spring season and enthusiasm will be synonymous. We will hear the smash of tennis balls on our courts as Miss Houser prepares us for the Ellen Wallace Me- morial Tournament and the Michigan State Open Tournament Salt pills and laps around the hockey field will introduce another wonderful lacrosse season under Mrs. Houston's direction; bats will swing, and golf balls and or chunks of sod will fly. . . .
