KETBALL The varsity 9 were led by their co-captains, Gina Clarke and Jane Pierce. Jane, the team's high scorer, chalked up a total of 96 points in six games, including 25 points against Darien. Jane was assisted in the forward positions by seniors, Sandra Mentes, Carol Terebesi, who was second high scorer, Lynne Abromaitis, and Judy Brown. The guards were Gina Clarke, who also turned in some fine performances as forward, Nancy Clarke, Joan Heady, Suzy Ribner, and Lois Martenson. The Junior Varsity team ended the season with a 2-'I-3 record, and gave many girls an opportunity to participate in interscholastic competition and gain valuable experience for next year. The Burke twins, Denny and Jerry, proved great assets to the team by being high scorers and by con- fusing the opponents, who seemed to think that they were seeing double. JUNIOR VARSITY Row I: J.
