There, on the field, a frisky group of dainty, muscular individuals were poised. Then you saw the football — Ahah! Oh, but it can ' t be! A girls football team? How revolution- ary! Revolutionary or not, the Kiss-Me-Nots and the Cobras played a fun-filled, no score game during United Appeal Week. Many thanks go to Miss Evans and Marjorie Glascow who organized the teams. Thanks also to our most charming coaches. Bill Hutcheson and Alan Hedderwick. GYMNASTICS This year, the gymnastics really flourished under Mrs. Dibble ' s excellent teaching. We started with condition- ing in the fall. Shortly before Christmas, we switched to apparatus. A leaders ' group was formed to assist Mrs. Dibble with the instruction. We formed a group for competition held at Monarch Park. Oakwood did very well. Keep up the good work, girls!

Our volleyball teams were always on the beam, even though it meant sacrificing that extra precious hour of sleep in the mornings. We only won a few games but it was all worth it. Thank you Mrs. Laquerre, our faithful coach. HOUSE LEAGUE: Our eager volleyball inter-form teams made a great sacrifice this year rushing through their lunch to play volleyball. All teams played good games even on a half empty stomach. Due to lack of time, there were no upper or lower school champs, but our congratula- tions go to the form victors 9E, lOK, 11 PL, 12CE.

SENIOR SCHOOL TEAM SITTING: Dorothee Gries, Angela Bernabucci. KNEELING: Karen Warren, Sylvia Bulfoni. Judy Schwager, Angle Pompillo. STANDING: Brenda Brownlee. Anna Jane Worrel, Roberta Brusatln, Gail Zupnik, Kate Rounthwaite. BASKETBALL School Teams: This year, unlike last year, we had both a junior and senior basketball team. Both teams enjoyed playing against several other schools and although we did not win them all, everyone enjoyed themselves. Our thanks to Mrs. Laquerre and all the players. Interhouse: For the first time this year Oakwood girls did not play interform basketball, but inter- house basketball. Every girl in the school was placed on one of Red, Blue, Green, and Gold houses and thus the competition was only between houses. It is hoped that the house system will work well in the coming years and will raise both house and school spirit. JUNIOR SCHOOL TEAM SEATED: Marie Harris, Ilona Pluym. KNEELING: Rosita Debacco, Debbie Gilmore, Brenda Uchimaru. STANDING: Angle Troiano, Vivian Jolinstone, Renata Guizzo, Dorrit Demeter. BADMINTON The Middle Term was the season for bad- minton. For the first time, the tournaments were held during the noon hour. The majority of the school seemed more interested in their stomachs than badminton, perhaps ac- counting for the poor turnout. The loyal few who persisted had lots of fun. Mixed bad- minton was tried again this year but no champions were chosen. Sheila Robertson and Anne Wood were successful in the doubles tournament, Rita Zirbser capturing the singles crown. The above-mentioned girls with Bianca Falconi, Helen Mason, Sharon Peat and Gloria Harvey formed a badminton team representing Oakwood in two tournaments. 96
