As a rule, each school has a playday at home and is a guest at one playday at another school. In this way, every school has a chance to take part in two playdays each semester. On April 29, Garfield, Fremont, and Roosevelt were guests at Lincoln High School. The games played were basketball, baseball and volleyball. Garfield was hostess to Gardena and Belmont on May 9. Archery, tennis, speedball, baseball, and volleyball were played. Garfield was victorious in a tennis match, two speedball games, and a volleyball game. Most playdays are concluded by refreshments, danc- ing. and a program. Playdays make it possible for girls from all over the city who have the same inter- ests to become acquainted. This often results in last- ing and worth-while friendships. at as ae as Sellishness is an excellent weapon for suicide.
