Kathleen Kelley, Rita Ryan, Mary Jane Conley, and Mimi Eagan prepare for the take-off. Our annual play day was its usual success. It was held on May 29 and began with intra- mural contests in which points were awarded to each class. The gold cup was awarded to the class with the most points and announcement was made ol the new A. A. president at the banquet held that evening. As wc look hack over tllis year at tl1e Court, for some of us thc last, wc sec how sports have helped to develop in us a better sense of justice and sportsmanship. Our pleasant memories of Court life are surely more pleasant because of the part sports have played in them, particu- larly this past year. Wc've learned to win tournaments enthusiastically but we've also learned to lose them gracefully. We've learned to play alone efficiently but wc've learned to play cooperatively with our classmates. Tribute Court sports all agree that we owe much to our sports director and physical education in- structor, Miss Elaine Carvillc. A person of rare ability, she has instructed us in sports familiar and unfamiliar and has helped us to enjoy more fully these years at our beloved Court. Miss Carville has willingly devoted all her time to Joan Delany and Mary Anne McHugh ready for one of the contests M MISS ELAINE CARVILLE Athletic Director us and has instilled in us, through her example, ideals of justice, sportsmanship and generous- ity. Never too busy to lend a willing ear and a helping hand, Miss Carville has untiringly spent herself for our benefit. Witliout her un- ending encouragement and vitality, sports could never have attained the great popularity they enjoy at the Court. Witl101lt her invaluable and generous assistance, the sports section of this yearbook could never have been completed. We thank you, Miss Carville. You've been a source of inspiration to us in the past and it is the aim of each Courtier in the future to live up to the ideals so deeply impressed upon us by you.
