Tennis An indoor sport that was introduced into our school this year is tennis. No sport ever became popular so instantaneously, nor did any remain popular so long as this one., It was thought that tennis would be a pleasant pastime for the students during the winter months, but up to the last week of school we found students playing this game in the gymnasium. Several tournaments were staged in which Carl Ristau and Philipp Lange emerged as tennis champions for the boys, and Rita Griep stood supreme among the girls. - Now that the game is thoroughly understood, and as it is so popular, some preparations ought to be made for the construction of outdoor tennis courts. Track Earnest effort marked the track work this year. Almost every day one could see Mr. Goodrich and his boys practicing the several feats called for in this work. At the track meet in Baraboo, Walter Schara was successful in getting a first in the half mile. In view of the fact that this was the only iirst that Prairie du Sac failed to get at the meet in which four schools par- ticipated, Walter's .accomplishment is outstanding. The boys are now more familiar with the several phases of track work, and much improvement is looked for next year. An inter-class track meet was staged at the time of the carnival, but as this book was in the hands of the printer before that time, we cannot state results here. Baseball All glory that was to be won in baseball this year had to be done by a very inexperienced team. As no baseball team had been sponsored by the school for a number of years, the boys were not so familiar on the diamond as they were on the basketball Hoor. Consequently all games this year went against us. But the future looks much brighter. Several promising players have been unearthed, and coming seasons should bring more victories. Page Fourteen

Golden Spaulding , Ruth Ziemke . Miss Lamb Treasurer Adviser .... The Camp Fire Girls organization is one of the most uplifting activi- ties in our school. This group was organized a year ago by Miss Doering. Although the group was not so active in school affairs this year as it might have been, its members were closely bound to each other and ex- perienced several very good times. The group took several hikes, a trip to Baraboo, and enjoyed several parties. We look for increased activity from this group as it grows older and feels its importance. Page Fifteen
