S A A I A R A 17 Sports Day 1955 On June 3, 1955, Elmwood held the annual Sports Day. The weather was fine, many friends were present, and the enthusiasm was at its peak. It was organized under the direc- tion of Miss Dubrule and everyone enjoyed the various activities (fortunately the mos- quitoes were not active that day.) The winners ivere: Senior Sports Cup— Gillian Neville Intermediate Sports Cup— Lynne Cas- tonguay Junior Sports Cup— Seddon Ryan Preparatory Sports Cup— Angelica Ruiz School Sports Captain Molly Sutcliffe was the popular choice for this honoured position. She has worked hard and successfully in this capacity and has help- ed Mrs. Rideout to learn the rules of Canadian games, which she learned so aptly and quickly. Molly ' s job has been to organize House Tournaments and to coach the Basketball team, and we all wish her luck as she launches further into this field in the future. Her helper this year has been Carolyn Bruce whom we are looking forward to seeing next year. Basketball During the long winter months, spirits were livened by exciting Basketball games. In the House games. Nightingale defeated Fry, and Keller defeated Nightingale with a close score of 16-15. The players certainly kept the timer and scorer busy! Under the supervision of Mrs. Rideout, with the help of Molly Sutcliffe, we played several interschool games but most of the time we found ourselves unlucky. We played such schools as Hull High School, Fisher Park High School, Carleton College and the Elm- wood Old Girls team which we defeated only by 1 point.
