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.

18 SAMARA We would like also to thank the Sports Captain of each house, Joan Yates, Frances Cabeldu and Esther Prudham for their work and enthusiasm. Our appreciation goes to Mrs. Rideout who has taught us many new games and stunts and for her assistance in all our sports which were new to her. Soccer This year Soccer was played just before the snow began to fall, and with numerous bruised shins, Nightingale was the winner, having defeated both Keller and Fry by the same narrow margin 2-1. Since last year some of us have learned to use our heads — in hitting the ball that is! Volley Ball Volley Ball provided exciting entertain- ment after the Easter holidays. Keller defeated Fry in a series of best of 3 games. Keller went on to challenge Nightingale but were defeated in the third game. AH the teams were evenly matched and the games were close. Badminton One of the main features in the Sports program of the last term was the Badminton play-offs. Enthusiasm was high among board- ers and day girls alike as the eliminations took place. After worthy competition, the follow- ing girls won in the finals: Senior Singles— Barbara Kennedy Senior Doubles— Lynne Castonguay, Sandra Drew Intermediate Singles— Lynne Castonguay Intermediate Doubles— Linda Redpath, Sally Sadler. Baseball The fine days following the Easter vacation were an incentive for the House Sports Captains to organize Baseball games. Each House showed fine sportsmanship and played well. After several close games, Nightingale House emerged as the champions. Skiing Each snowfall of the winter term was heartily welcomed by the ski enthusiasts. The main event of the ski season, as usual, was the week-end at A-Iont Tremblant where the girls benefited greatly from the instruction of the pros. With Captain and Mrs. Bruce as well as Mrs. Rideout and other staff members to organize the week-end, everyone had an enjoyable time. On several other week-ends, Mrs. Rideout took the skiers to Camp Fortune and Adountain Lodge.
