fmppe Z2 gnfczy The climax to Field Day came when cheerleaders and varsity team members clashed in a basketball battle. A handi- cap of boxing gloves was placed on the boys to make the teams more equal. Even this drawback could not stop our team of champions! Unconventional plays and counter- plays on the part of each team helped to add humor to the episode. Numerous questionable calls by the illustrious referees, Coach Cottrell and Coach Mann, added to the excitement and confusion. The hilarious contest ended with a tie score, to the disgrace of the boys and the glory of the cheerleaders. Qilft i D'Arcy Lawrence and Susie Heidt Cheer- leaders' 8-foot forward!

L-- I 0!U xy Public speaking is always an important part of life at COS. The pace picks up in the spring when contestants for the Forensic Tournament are chosen. This contest is sponsored by the VAAC and was held in Farmville in April 1968. Judges were stu- dents from Hampden Sydney College. Carolton Oaks competitors entered all iields - public speaking, poetry and prose reading, debating, and spelling. When scores were added, our team placed second. The host, Prince Edward Academy, was officially number one, but, in great generosity, pre- sented the winner's plaque to COS. For the second year our team came home with the trophy. A duplicate was made and sent to the rightful winners. .H Z HI... . ' g Ar Jffipj. ' g ' 'w A In 1 -Y -, . ii, . nv. , ' 1' g.. , f 5 if 1 A , . Cecelia Barnett shows poise while speaking.
