The weather is fine, and the game is fast, and the girls' faces are radiant with the expectation of placing the purple and white above the competing teams and holding the honors for their Alma Mater. During the months of September and October the practice work goes fast and furiously, and then another season is begun triumphantly. The school championship in doubles was hard fought with the final supremacy going to the famous Senior team of Tarnutzer and Raymond. This was followed by the victories of the Iunior Class Team. Rahl Baht Through the month of November the Varsity met teams from many schools and defeated every one of them, but O, Brotherl When the day came for the game with our dear brothers, did they spare our tender souls? They did not, and the Marlborough team went down to defeat. However, the Volleyballers were vindicated by a marvelously fine showing at Play Day, and the season closed in victory. BASKETBALL T MABLBOBOUGH basketball is probably the most popular sport, not only because we have more outside games, but also because the season is longer than most since it lasts from Ianuary until the spring vacation. This year nine girls won their basketballs for first team play. They were Phyllis Boothe, loan Brandel, Dorothy Karr, Murrow McCurnin, Caroline Mitchell, Katherine Moran, Barbara Murphy, Florence Raymond, and Ruth Tarnutzer. The result of this years season was as follows: Game We They Flintridge - - 31 12 Westridge - - - 45 l2 Santa Barbara - - - 30 15 Westridge ------ 54 l3 Santa Barbara ----- 20 21 Catholic Girls' High School 30 24 With only one defeat and that by only one point the Varsity

They, too, are to be congratulated. As usual, the big event of the season was the week end at Santa Barbara where the lowly Smuts at last attained true dignity. In spite of the one-point defeat, the team enjoyed a week-end which they will never forget. TENNIS I-IE soughing swish of the tennis racket and the thud of bounc- ing balls broadcast the opening of the 1932-33 season of Marl- borough tennis. Friendships are forgotten for the moment, the air Wings with challenges and threats, and even the love of sisters is temporarily mislaid. This year Marlborough tennis players remembered the mar- velous record of last year, and each individual began the season with grim determination to gain as fine a one. An entirely new team had to be developed, for almost all of the veteran players had left us last june. At the opening of l933 we had before us the Dudley Cup Tournament and the famous event at Ojai where We had collected three championships in '32. ln prepara- tion for these events, practice throughout the school began in january. First came the school championship tournament to determine the Marlborough representatives for Ojai and the tennis standing of the players in the school. Following this event came the school doubles championship. When these matches were finally played off the teams were chosen. Girls' Singles-Peggy Hill and Natalie Hill Girls' Doubles-Elizabeth Martin and jane Wildey junior Singles-Barbara Rogers junior Doubles-june Murphy and jean Oakley These were the girls who finally represented us with honor at Ojai. For the first time since the Sutton sisters fought for supremacy in the early days of the Ojai Tennis Tournament, two sisters were matched against each other in the finals-our own Natalie and Peggy. Both girls had played marvelous tennis throughout the match, and their meeting was a sight to see. In
