26 SAMARA We all want to thank and congratulate the School Tennis Team for winning the Inter-Scholastic Tennis Shield last Fall. They played some very interesting games and in the last match defeated Lisgar 3-0. BASKETBALL TEAM CRITICISMS Pat Spendlove — Pat was a very strong member of our team this season — playing side centre. She is very steady and fast, and passes well. ViEVE Inglis — Vieve has played splendidly throughout the season. She is quick on her feet, and a good shot, too. She played centre for us this year, and got along very well indeed. Janet Fleck — Janet can put any ball in any basket from anywhere when she feels like it, but the trouble is that sometimes she — just doesn ' t feel like it! Elizabeth McClelland {Captain) — Elizabeth played shot with Janet. She is very steady, and certainly an asset to our team. Mary MacFarlane — Mary is a very strong guard, very active, and has done much to keep our opponents ' scores down. Glenn Borbridge — Glenn played defence with Mary this season, and really did very well at guarding our basket. THE SEASONS {1) First comes the Spring, with soft fresh rain That makes the flowers bloom again; The trees ' leaves and the grass appear, The robins from the South fly near. (2) Next comes the summer, warm and bright, In tennis and swimming we delight, And then to camp we laughing go. To learn to dive and arch and row. {3) With Autumn we are back at school To study hard and keep the rule. The coloured leaves are falling fast — And we prepare for the coming blast. When Winter ' s snow and ice are here. The children ski and skate and cheer. The wind, he whistles through the trees, And the poor people huddle and almost freeze. — Mary Paterson, age 12.

SAMARA 25 HOCKEY The rink was very popular this year and enterprising skaters could be found on it in all spare moments. The school hockey team played three matches against the Old Girls and won two games and tied one. Inter-House hockey matches were begun later in the season, but owing to unfavourable weather were not completed. We hope there will be more hockey than ever next year. GYM AND DANCING The gym classes each week have been greatly enjoyed by the gymmers and at the Drill Competition, the audience was enter- tained by a display of vaulting, rope c limbing and work on the rings. Everyone has been most enthusiastic about the dancing this year, a ' nd we all hope we have improved in our work. We welcomed Miss Eason this Fall and we would like to thank her, too, for making our classes so interesting. On May 11, we had our Annual Recital. Unfortunately, owing to bad colds, some of the girls were unable to participate and Miss Eason nobly filled their places, which, of course, greatly added to the performance. The Drill Competition this year was most successful. The groups had been trained by Miss Powell, but on the afternoon of the competition each class was led by one of the girls. We all anxiously waited for our judge, Mr. Buck, to name the winners, who were the Sixth Forms. Posture girdles have been awarded during the year to: K. Warner, L. MacBrien, B. McClelland, P. Spendlove, G. Inglis, P. Clark, S. Kenny, M. Paterson. Last June A. Cochrane, M. Boal, P. Gait, B. Hopkirk and P. Murphy also won their girdles. BADMINTON This sport has been greatly enjoyed this year and we have just completed the Inter-House matches. After some excellent games Nightingale proved victorious once again. MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVITIES In the autumn Major Chapman again conducted his Archery classes. He had several new pupils who made very good progress. Riding plays an important part amongst the girls, and although during the winter months there was none, autumn and spring days have found many enthusiastic horsewomen. TENNIS Tennis is still a favourite sport at Elmwood and everyone is very keen. The courts are continually in use whenever the weather permits.
