Girls’ Athletics tn our town S. A. A. sponsors many activities during the year— in the fall, it's golf, soccer, and softball; in the winter, basketball, volleyball, and dancing; in spring, tennis, badminton, and archery; and golf is a new activity this year. Mary Cochonour Something else which is new is the noon hour activities. The girls who can't stay after school for tournaments have a chance to make points at this time. There were tournaments in basketball, tennis, archery and badminton which aroused much interest and competitive spirit. And now for winners—Congratulations—Rosemary Weigel, singles, Betty Staley and Ramona Downey, doubles, who won the Clark County Tennis Tournament and were runners-up in the E. I. League in 1940.

Awards were presented to the following girls last year: 1st Numeral Awards 600 points—llene Estes, Mary Graham, Vivian Hall, Juanita Luckey, Berniece Snodgrass, Evelyn Welker, Vaneta Whitney and Edna Littlejohn. 2nd Award—School letters, 1200 points, were given to Ramona Downey and Marge Townsend.
