lfwitfi the cgpeecf of light In the past season, the most important jobs of the GIRLS' ATHLETIC COMMITTEE were those of wel- coming visiting teams and approving athletic honors. Chosen by Miss Taylor, this group was made up of girls, outstanding in gym work. Thus, they were capable enough to handle the numerous sideline, athletic jobs that came up. ln addition, these girls occasionally had the chance to ref inter-class basketball and baseball games. As for athletic honors, no girl received her cov- eted D without first having had it approved by every member of the Athletic Committee. The TENNIS season started early in September. A large group of girls turned out, so that competition was keen. Because of bad weather, matches were delayed for long periods, but by late October they were com- Page fifty pleted. Eda lVIae Hubbard came out vic- tor and Anita Margulis, runner-up, after fighting their way through quarter and semi-finals, Every Tuesday afternoon, the Y.M.C.A. pool rang to the sounds of non-masculine voices. One immediately discovered that the girls' SWIMMING TEAM had taken over. These girls, beginners and advanced swimmers alike, perfected their swim- ming strokes under the able instruction of Y.W.C.A. and Red Cross approved teachers. The fee was a reasonable 52.00, and during the forty-five minutes to an hour which they spent in the pool, the girls learned everything from the dog paddle to a complicated back-stroke and crawl. Diving was reserved for the most part for those who had become quite proficient in their other swimming. At the end of each term the girls had competitive races. Each group had a win- ner and runner up. All four girls received large D's , the other girls, the small ones. GIRLS' ATHLETIC COMMITTEE lTopl F. Buhrig, I. Bayles, A. Reichgott, A. Gorman, S.
