As a climax to our activities. a swimming demonstration was held on March 20. A creditable performance was given by members of the Club. and our guest swimmer was our well- known graduate, Dorothy Prior. The fact that she has twice represented Canada at the Olympic games offered inspiration to the would-be stars of the future. 1' -k if 4S1 INTER-FORM BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS INTER-COLLEGIATE basketball took a back seat this year, giving Way to keener inter-form games. The round-robin system, approved by the girls, prevailed. This sport has always been popular at Eastern Commerce and gains favor from year to year. All teams are out to win, but lose or win, they have loads of fun. The three finalists in the senior group were 4G1, 4S1, and 5S-4S2. The 4G1 girls showed great style but were a little behind the others. The 4S1 team was victorious in the final game, the score being 33-9. The members of this team have worked together for three years and thus have developed excellent combinations and forms of playing that the other teams would do well to observe. By this victory 4S1 will represent the school in the inter-collegiate series. The senior girls have kindly given their time to refereeing the junior games, and to them goes the credit for the success of the round-robin system. 4SI, SCHOOL BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS From Left to Righf: D.
