N THQ SCARAH9 we B W .ae TENNIS With live splendid courts and many enthusiastic Yvetomachek campers, tennis proved to be one of the most interesting activities in camp. Beginners became much more interested in tennis by playing in the tournament, while our stars displayed their skill and speed in some very splendid matches. Att ther t ee fll g,th L h d ,' - i er ournamen s w r in u swing eremar's one ear were 'Yiihich court may we have? and W ill you line for me?', The courts were lull from early morn until the shades of evening were lowered. The camp tournament was the most exciting because each tribe just knew it had the best player. But after all was said and done, it was sort of a family affair, with Anderson of the Iries defeating Bigelow of the lries. BASEBALL A click, click, click on a glass was heard from the head of the counselors' table and then, There will be a baseball game tonight. Everyone be at the diamond in half an hour. And then we knew we were going to have an exciting evening. A round robin tournament was arranged and two games a week vs ere played between the different tribes. Were they exciting? YYhen the hour came both teams vs ere there, each with a group of loyal rooters to help them along. They were ex- citing! The Irie tribe iinished with a victorious team, having won every game they played. Of course something must be said of the counselors' team. There's Zhonta- although her Charlie horse kept her from running, she could hit the ball. Then VVapo-who always got so excited, and Owakon who could bat the ball and run at least three bases before the ball came down out of the air, and Medamin,-well- she'll learn to play! TRACK Everyone always found time to go out and practice track, no matter how busy she was, and practice after hours became quite popular. You see, everyone wanted that double ice-cream cone that Mr. Teuscher offered. However, practice makes perfect, and as the days went by everyone either improved or was disabled. Competition soared high between the tribes throughout camp, but when it came time for the track meet we didn't know whether there would be one or not. The poor Sussies and Iries were so banged-up. Some had Charlie horse, some sprained ankles and others had boils. Finally VN'apo said we could have the track meet. Vihy, camp wouldn't be camp without the meet! Excitement ran high, when the shot of the pistol announced that the first heat of the hurdles was oFf. Johnson of the Potties and Neilson of the YVinnies tied for high point scorer. The Potties won the team honors, with Johnson winning the T5-yard dash and the hurdles. l7Ol

THE SCARAB sit, ca, fig SWIMMING My! but it was cold and how we hated to leave our warm beds for morning dip, yet those first painful moments before the dip were worth enduring when one thinks of the glorious feeling afterwards. At least the Lodge thinks so. There were three classes of swimmers at camp: beginners, life-savers, and advanced swimmers. Before camp was over the beginners were no longer beginners but regular swimmers. Most of the girls in the life-saving class passed the examina- tion the last week of camp. But it was the advanced class that was looked at with awe as they dove into the deep water. The day of the swimming meet was clear and warm. The events were: diving, swimming for form, speed, and relays. The novelty race with the hands tied was the most exciting and interesting. The Iries, with Shem swimming for form and Mayer diving, came out victorious. RIDING Horseback riding at camp was looked forward to with much pleasure. With Mr. Faulkenburg as instructor, many pleasant trips were enjoyed by those who liked to ride. The beginners were kept in the ring for a few lessons, until they were used to the bumps, but soon they were able to enjoy the trips along the roads around XYetomachek. The last week was the horse show, it held much interest and was quite thrilling, especially the chair relay, a potato relay and the dashes. The individual score for horsemanship was won by jane Bigelow, an Irie. BOATING AND CANOEING Swim your hundred yards before you may enter a canoe. Thus we were informed at the beginning of our boating classes. The hours spent under Owakon's careful instruction were very enjoyable. She knew just how to put that paddle in the water and give it the proper twist, not to mention turning the canoe around. Never were there such enthusiastic paddlers ready to learn to paddle a canoe in true Owakon style. What thrills we experienced when we learned to stand on the gunwales and paddle! And, oh, what fun we had when it came to tipping our canoes! The thrill of thrills came when we were told we might take moonlight rides after lights out. Only those who enjoyed those rides know how impressive it was to glide along in the moonlit water. On July 3rd, the annual water carnival was held, with representatives from each tribe demonstrating form in paddling, bobbing, tipping, and other stunts. The second part of the program was the decoration of the canoes and boats, each tribe having one of each. It was difficult for the judges to award honors because all of the boats were so well done. The Irie boat won first place. It represented a Hawaiian Hut. The Winnie canoe, representing The Back Yard, took first for canoes. H21
