HOCKEY HIS YEAR marked the beginning of the new epoch in the realm of sport for the women of Chico State. At the beginning of the Spring semester a course in hockey was organized under the direction Of Miss Rockwood. Although no credit is given for the course, each Tuesday and Thursday afternoon between the hours Of four and five o'clock finds thirty-three girls out on the new field trying to master the rudi- ments of the game and if appearance counts for anything they are getting a great deal of enjoyment Out of it. Also a few of the girls give promise Of becoming quite expert at taking the ball down the field-to say nothing of the manner in which they guard the goal. The most interesting match of the season was the one in which the Freshmen challenged the upper classmen one and all to a game and much to the dismay of the Older group succeeded in winning by a small margin. Oh, well, better luck next time, upper classmen. The girls out for the sport are as follows: ELEANOR SELLICK ELVA CARTER LILLIAN CLAYTON HELEN RETZLOPE ELIZABETH SQUIRES MARGUERITE OERKE MAYBELLE WILLIAMS SHIRLEY HOPKINS MARY WALL NEDRA BARTLETT GLADYS LANDERS JUDITH FOSTER M.

l PENCIN G FENCING. one of the sports just introduced at Chico State this year, is getting .exceedingly popular and many of the men as well as the women have been enjoying this novel activity. HORSEBACK RIDING ALTHOUGH horseback riding was also new to most of the women enrolled in the classes, it proved to be the most popular sport offered during the fall semester. In addition to the regular classes which were held every afternoon and from four to five under the direction of Misses Rockwood and Gocke, Saturday morn- ing rides and moonlight rides were popular attractions for both the men and women of the College. The crowning event of the season was an overnight trip taken by a group of girls who rode to a ranch twelve miles from town. After a hearty supper cooked and eaten in the house the girls made their beds in a barn and maybe you think they didn't sleep. If the ride homeward was a trifle slower due to the slight exhaustion of the riders the girls were none the less enthusiastic and everyone reported a wonderful time. The following girls were signed up for the sport: Leone Walker, Pauline Spurlock, Goldie Fiddler, Blanche Fiddler, Dorothy Brown, Dorothy Schock, Alice Poage, Claire Beauregarde, Gertrude Irwin, Cath- erine Middleton, Barton Coggins, Helen Hitt, Mildred Woods, Thelma Jones. Elizabeth Squires, Doris Woods, Thea Pyle, Elizabeth Klier. Catherine Con- very, Shirley Hopkins, Rachel Wilson, Maybelle Williams, Martha Cobb, Vergie Reddick, Evelyn Perigo, Marion Burum, Cecile Durbrow, Virginia Garnett, Dorothy Stover, Shirley Carter, Elizabeth Keener, Margaret Kopplin. Leona Maxey, Helen McKenzie, Eleanor Vogelgsang, Estelle Guill, Eleanor Brady. Dorothy Weil, Margaret Botts, Ila Kirk, Edna-Mae Will, Mary Louise Jackson. Helen Summers, Helen Jeffery. 68 ig..-

SWIMMING WIMMING has always been one of the most popular sports among the women of the College. With the addition this year, of a course in life saving, much interest has been added and by the end of the semester many of the girls hope to be wearing the coveted badge and button of a Red Cross Life Saver. In order to pass the course the girls must know how to do the various approaches, breaks, and carries, as well as the Prone Pressure Method of resusci- tation. The above by no means insure a passing grade in the course as an additional requirement has been added. The girls must be able to do the following strokes in good form: Elementary back stroke, breast stroke, side stroke, single overarm. trudgeon, and crawl, tread water one minute and float one minute. The required dives are surface, standing and racing. Stunts have also been a featured part of the course, especially since the new springboard was put in and some of the girls are learning a number of clever dives just for their own satisfaction. The class, which is given Without credit under the direction of Miss Gocke, meets on Monday and Wednesday afternoons and has an enrollment of ten girls most of whom are majors in Physical Education. Since this is the iirst year any advanced swimming has been given the class is small but as interest increases the size of the class w-111 increase in proportion. This year the following girls are taking the course: Bernice Bair, Nedra Bartlett, Thelma Jones, Margaret Kopplin, Myrtle McLain, Dora Meline, Amanda Michels, Catherine Middleton, Shirley Hopkins, Maybelle Williams. 4 I
