BASEBALL Although the baseball season was short, our team played exceptionally well at all of the games. We showed the other schools our great skill and deter- mination by winning The Raggedy Ann Tournament. Unfortunately, we were not as successful when we played B.S.S., although the game was close. The season was great for the whole team. Special thanks should go to Mrs. Shaver for all the help she gave us and for the grateful lifts after long games.

TENNIS Once again the tennis team showed a great deal of potential. Although it was a short season, we all managed to have fun. Between the weather and our exams it was difficult to partake in various tournaments, but our determination and great coaching from Miss Riggin allowed us to win the Raggedy Ann tour- nament against various other schools. Mrs. Bedard coached four girls, Trish Reward, Judy Mc- Clure, Vicky Bassett and Natalie Buchanan, to enter the preliminary try-outs for O.F.S.S.A. in Brantford, Ont. Vicky won the singles division, and Natalie and Judy placed 2nd in the doubles division. All three qualified for O.F.S.S.A., although only Judy and Natalie represented Branksome as Vicky had an injury. We would like to thank Mrs. Bedard for all her time and help. Good luck in the future, Branksome, and may all your loves be to your advantage. Natalie Buchanan Tennis Court Oath - June 20, 1789. At the beginning of the French Revolution, there was a dramatic act of defiance by representatives of the non-privileged classes of the French nation. The deputies of the Third Estate had formed, on June 17, a National Assembly. Finding themselves locked out of their usual meeting house at Versailles, they moved to a nearby tennis court. There they took an oath never to separate until a written constitution had been established for France.

TRACK AND FIELD This year the Track and Field team was more victorious than ever before! We successfully held the Toronto District Track and Field finals, and, five girls: Jane Horner, Sarah Wiley, Alison Wiley, Kate Wiley, and Darcy Bett qualified for O.F.S.S.A. These five girls made up the five-man Branksome team that won the overall Girl ' s trophy in the Ontario finals. Kate Wiley, in the Senior Women ' s division, placed second in the 3000m, and second in the 1500m races. Alison Wiley, in the Junior Women ' s division, placed first in 1500m, and second in the 800m races. Sarah Wiley, in the midget division, placed ninth in the 1500m race. Darcy Bett placed first in the javelin event and Jane Horner did extremely well in the hurdle events. Congratulations are due to these girls; Branksome was proud to be represented by them. All members of the Track and Field team went through hours of gruelling training with Mr. Wright and Mr. Payne from Upper Canada College, but the hours paid off. Personal bests, school records, and even provincial ones were broken during competitions, and we were victorious among the Private Schools. A special thanks is due to Mrs. Kizoff and the Upper Canada College coaches for their hours of help and en- couragement. Track Team Members: Centre left picture on op- posite page.
