SCHOOL VOLLEYBALL CHAMPIONS This year Room 22 has made a very good showing in sports. We played Rooms 18, 20, 21 and 25 suc¬ cessfully and won the Grade 8 champ¬ ionship. About a week later we played against the Grade 7 champions and won again! This gave us the champion¬ ship of Grade 7 as well as Grade 8. On the following Friday we played Grade 9, Room 13, for the School Championship. Very much to everyone’s surprise, we came out on top. BACK ROW (Left to Right)—Lovern Scott.

POSTURE WEEK The Girls Sports Council sponsored a “Posture Week during the week of March 7th to 11th. They chose as a motto “Be Posturized.” Pamphlets were distributed, and a movie on posture was shown to the girls. After the movie, Miss Hodgson gave an amusing display of poor posture. During our P.T. periods Miss McVeigh gave us posture exercises and showed us the proper way of sitting, walking and standing. Everyone checked everyone else on their posture in the hallways. “Posture Week was a big success and there was a definite improvement in everyone’s posture. SPEEDSKATING (JUNIOR HIGH) This year three teams entered in the speed-skating races from Earl Grey School. They were the Primary, the Junior, and the Intermediate teams. In the first race both the Pri¬ mary and the Junior teams placed first and the Intermediates placed third. In the second race the Primary team came second and the Junior team came third. A fine effort and good sports¬ manship was shown on the part of each team. Congratulations girls! Good luck for a winning team next year. BACK ROW (Left to Right)—Heather Sorenson. Pearl Alexander.

ELEMENTARY SPEEDSKATERS BACK ROW (Left to Right)—Gordon Barnes, Jackie Scott. Pat Kellet. Jenny Mack, Terry Carriere, Lome La Chance. FRONT ROW—Gerry Trider, Carole Atkins. Linda Burzanski, Carolyn McShane. SKATEN’ FOOLS Let’s pretend that you’re a speed-skater and you’re in the school speed skating races. You’re the intermediate type so you’re put into the intermediate relay with three other girls. Nearly every day, for three weeks before the races you stay for lunch to practise. Finally the big day arrives, you’re handed a competitor’s ticket and a school sweater, which is three sizes too large for you or it wouldn’t be a school sweater. You ' re told to be on time and to wear your rompers. You just make it! Miss Hodgson pins number 73 on you and tells you that you’re skating in the 14th event. While you’re standing there with your mouth hanging open someone yells, Hey, you, get your skates on.” Well, you close your mouth and start slipping you skates on. Your buddy hands you some gum and you sit there chewing nervously. You scream and yell yourself hoarse. Finally it ' s your turn. A man on the rink yells 73 . You hurry out! There are two girls ahead of you as you’re skating third. The gun booms! Off go the first girls. You stand there shaking like a leaf. After the first lap the second girl goes onto the ice to wait for the tag, and then she skates off. As she goes by someone pushes you onto the ice. You stand there all tensed up. Here she comes! She almost tags you but she falls. She ' s up again. Everybody is ahead of you when you get touched off. Then you shoot past one girl. You’re going around a corner when you catch your skate in a rut. Up you go into the air in a split fotmation. Bang, down you go but you get up again. You almost tag the next girl but you fall again. Finally you tag her. You sit at the side of the rink, your head spinning. Someone helps you off the rink. You stand at the boards and find out your team came in third. Well, next year you’ll come in first. Then when the races are over you trot off home, kind of glad that its over but a little sad that you didn’t come in first. Heather Sorensen Room 22 Grade 8 55
