ATHLETIIIE Tafkefball Q-A Qirdfr ciye Vzew Sit tight, there, and steady the camera. The plane is swooping low enough now to see Camp Rondack! That brown rectangle with the white lines must be the basketball court. See those two lines of white and green marching in. There's probably going to be a game. They're taking their places. The greens must be the Dack Inters, and the whites the Rons, for there's Ruth Litt and Evelyn Sitomer at one basket, and Edna Kadin and Carol Davidson at the other end. There goes the whistle. W!hite's in the center Cyes, it's Muriel W'olfsiej. Edna has the ballg that green guard intercepting looked like Claire Kulok. The ball's just a black speck whizzing through the air to the Dack basket. This is such a fast game, I can hardly see the ball at all. Oh, what a shame! A big black cloud's in our way. But we can come back this afternoon. There's a Senior game scheduled then. Thank goodness, the sky is clear now. I can easily distinguish faces. Shirley Greene has the ball. She's turning toward the Ron basket. A green's guarding a white forward. Ah, there's Betty Ross-my, but she's quick on her feet! See how shels eluded her guard! Frankie Block is having a hard time getting away from Harriette Slote. But there! She darts under the basket to get a bounce pass from Betty. She's poised for the shot-easy there-a basket! Letis get one good sequence of the girls cheering!

I on Formation Hello, folks, this is Graham Crackery speaking from the Rondack reviewing stand. The weather is perfect for the Ron and Dack Formations-big opening event of Varsity Wreck. Sh! the Roms are behind scenes ready to start. Listen, there's the sound of singing. Here are the Rons 'lVlarching Along for Ron T eamf Two columns of green and white nieetg now they're pivoting, and beholdf We have a series of green and white squares. The music changes and 'The Ship of State' leads the colorful lines into a series of complicated maneuvers-a clash of cymbals, and they are lying on the ground forming RON. In the final pattern they sit in hushed silence While a gorgeous red, green, and gold pagoda appears. Its scarlet curtains are drawn back and there, oriental and impassive sits 'The God of Peace,' Buddha. Us that our lively young Irma Newman?j There go the Roms off the pageant grounds. just a minute, we are turning. the mike over to Ted Using. 36

GBaz.febrzll Hello, everybody! This is the Rondack Globe-Trotter bringing you the latest and most interesting events of Varsity YVeek. First, welre taking you to the opening game of the Ron-Dack baseball series. Watch closely and you'll see Jeanne Tannenbaum out there in the pitcher's box. Wow! She pitched a hard one, but she's just warming up. Just look at Har- riette Slote jump aside when those fast ones come! It certainly takes courage to be Jeanne's catcher. It's about the middle of the game now, and the score is tied 2-2. Here comes l Helen Hirsch up to bat now. Watch the put- ting green, folks. She hit a gorgeous foul. Just straighten it out, Helen. There! She did it! Yes, but Helen Schwartz caught it at first! Too bad-one out. Jeanne seems to be invincible. She just struck out two of the Ron's best players. 'What a game! Now the Dacks are up at bat. Two men managed to get by Betty Ross's swift pitching. Now Edna Isaacs hits a gorgeous grounder and gets another Dack home as the crowd wildly cheers. That excitement you see on the sidelines is just Dack enthusiasm over the score. Jffcbezfy i Well, here is your Talking Photographer back again, to show you how Rondack's archers 'Shoot the W'orks.' There's Frankie Block just going up to the fifty-foot mark. She's shot beautifully so far, but Jeanne Tannenbaum is going to be hard to beat with a score of 170. Look at that form! She's shooting her last arrow now. Zip, there it goes-a bull's eye. Let's go over to the judges' corner and get the score. Too bad, Kons! Jeanne's won by 62 points. They tell me that a new star, Ruth Litt, has loomed Llnter' Rondack's horizon. Here are a couple of shots of the new champ, and her opponent Priscilla Wolff. You can tell by watching them in action why the score was so close, why those brand-new targets were shot full of holes by the end of the tournament. And they say that there are at least two dozen up and coming Juniors who look as if they might be future shooting stars too. 40
