Boys’ Varsity Basketball BACK ROW, Left to right: Mr. Kaplan, Coach; Ron Jones, Charlie Cox, Jack Linkleletter, Terry Lawrie, Brian Griffin, Manager. FRONT ROW: Jim Sinclair, Ron Stewart, Peter Komar- nicki, Orton Harrison, Bruce Tait, Sid Selver. Elmwood looked for¬ ward to a fine basketball season. Christmas exams had left us with our first defeat. Elmwood got off to a bad start, loosing the first four games. The losses were due to sec¬ ond quarter slumps and Elmwood experienced more of these slumps be¬ fore the season was over. Our season totalled 3 wins, 7 losses with most of our games being lost by less than ten points. Fine shooting by Sid Selver, Ron Stewart, and Peter Komarnicki, and good playmaking by Bruce Tait kept the score in close contention during most of our games. Girls’ Varsity Basketball This year the varsity girls ' Basketball Team was unvictorious, but regardless of this fact, the girls maintained the highest spirit of any of the other teams of the school. They entered each game with the hope of winning, even though they did not have much encouragement. The team coached by Mr. Labovich and practised constantly. The girls deserved to win all their games but fate was against them. The games against Sisler and Churchill were lost by narrow margins. The highest scorer was Gail Hauser. Perhaps if more girls tried out for the team, the team might have put on a better showing, scorewise. Many thanks to the team for proving that Elmwood High School can lose admirably. Good Luck next year!

Elmwood’s Volley¬ ball team did not enjoy a great deal of success this year. Playing their games at St. John’s High School, they lost games to both St. John’s and Sisler and placed third in the tourhament. The team consisted of four experienced members from last year’s tourna¬ ment and four boys with: another year’s eligibility. Although this year ' s showing was mediocre, the future looks quite bright for the team! Boys’ Varsity Volleyball Girls’ Varsity Volleyball The Varsity Girls haven’t fared well in either basketball or volleyball. The girls, however, did a little better against Sisler in a 59-45 game. The girls deserve a lot of credit, although they only won one game. They came out willingly to every practice and every game. Their team spirit was always tops and never lagged, even when they were beaten by a big margin. Perhaps, next year, they shall do as well as they deserved to this year.
