W h f ' ,Q nv X -s-7-Wide QmmfQ y J ' 'Adam In the past years, the volleyball team of D.H.S. has had the worst of luckg winning no more than three' games in a year. But the season of 'li-8-'ll-9 told a different story. We defeated every team that we played, at least once. Now don't reproach us for bragging just a little, for we are very proud of. our record this year. It is by far the best volleyball team Day- ville has ever had. The three toughest games played during the season were with the power- ful Fossil team. We trounced them on our floor, but dropped two decisions to them on their floor. ' During the latter part of the season, we hit a bit of bad luck and lost one game to Long Greek and one to Ht. Vernon. We oonsoled ourselves with the fact that one or two of our good players were sick. This season we played a total of 12 games,winning 8 and losing only 4. The greatest sporting event of the year, for the girls, was the play day held at Fossil. Our hopes for winning the trophy were high, for we felt sure that if we beat Fossil we would come home with the trophy. The son- fidenoe of one and all was deflated when at the end of the hard fought tus- sle, the score of 29-21, Fossil's game, was revealed to us. Although we felt despondent, delicious food, prepared and served by the Fossil P.T.A. helped us regain our fortitude. After eating, we adjourned to the High School where entertainment by each school was given. Since Dayville had been so busy whipping a play together, no skit was prepared. However, Winetta sav- ed the day by consenting to tap. The teams participating in the play day were: lone, Fossil, Dayville, Heppner, Hermiston, Spray, Condon, and Mt. Vernon. The final game for the trophy was played by the lone and Fossil teams. Ione won the contest by a comfortable margin. The members of our volleyball team this year were as follows: Harda Hontgomeryhoaptain, Joann Harris, Lola Best, Shirley Steen, Peg Moore Betty Cant, Shirley Frazer, Winetta Erickson and Jane Paul. The managers were Joy Starrett and Ruth Lemburger. t TUHBLING Our first day of tumbling, everyone tried to over play the other fellow just a little. It was really fun, and we all hoped there would be more. Well---more did .come and boy! did the sore muscles come with it? We could hardly move for a week, but you couldn't kill us off and we kept trys ing. This being our first year of tumbling, we weren't able to do much more than get limbered up, but we're going to have just as good a tumb1ing'tama as we had volleyball team. fgij Ai? ,Ep i i i K in iSS'73Er- fl l MF 6 'F '-
