This year a greater percentage of girls has come out for every kind of sport than ever before, and probably the percentage will become greater as the years roll on, until it is raised to a hundred. What could be more perfect? In the fall, tennis claimed the undivided attention of all, and great enthusiasm was displayed in the Elimination Tournament. Those who were eliminated in their first game laughingly said, Joke's on mell' While the remaining players slowly dwindled down to Mary Currie'Battle, champion, with Anne Lamb, runner-up. The Inter-Class Tournament was won by the Seniors after a hard fight, which proved very interesting to the on-lookers. Basketball, the mid-winter sport, gave not only the team, but the whole school, a chance to show just what the Collegiate Spirit really was, and if the team ever felt a wee-bit sore around the heart, after losing a game, it was because they were thinking how unworthy they were of that faithful director who shouldered all the blame, continued to advise, and never lost confidence in them. Swimming, track, and baseball come into prominence in the spring season, and all athletes participate with hearty enthusiasm. There are quite a number of Hsh who would swim twice a week if the pool were not full, and although the whales have a little advantage over the tadpoles, they seem to get along pretty well together. The tracksters continue to break records, and sometimes they even break windows, which fact our Head Very graciously overlooks. We wonder, too, who will be our Babe Waltonl' this year when we begin swatting flies on the vacant lot. The All-'Round CH has the unfailing capacity for broadening athletic abilities to cover a much wider area. In short, to bring oneself into close proximity with that distant C, one must be skilled in every species of sports. No single-track girls for us! The class that outdoes all other classes in a majority of the above-mentioned sports is awarded the athletic banner. Each class is Hghting hard. Who will win this banner? That is the question.
