Insets—Jack Ross and Allan Simm (Coaches). Girls ' Basketball The girls’ basketball team, captained by Doris Perry, the able centre, brought great honor to the school this year. The two games played against Kelvin were the most exciting, with keen competition throughout both games. Gordon Bell, we are sorry to say, lost both. The scores were 13-12 and 15-14, so you may well imagine that they were closely contested and afforded excitement to the spectators right to the finish. The girls hope to win out next year and I am sure we wish them the best of luck. We wish to thank our coaches, Jack Ross and Allan Simm. These boys do not go to our school and gave up much of their valuable time to come to the school and coach the girls. We also thank Miss Craven for the oranges she supplied to quench our thirst during the games and for her encouragement by at¬ tending every practice and game.

16 GORDON BELL HIGH SCHOOL SPORTS FOREWORD O VERLOOKING no sphere of High School sporting activity, Gordon Bell, in its second year as a senior institution, has capably fulfilled every promise of its initial year. In all lines of sports, our entrants have per¬ formed admirably, and gained for themselves a reputation as hard-fighting athletes. In future years new classes will undoubtedly benefit from the tradition of combined sportsmanship and school spirit which has become a part of our alma mater. Miss Craven and Mr. D. S. McIntyre, sports organizers, and the Sports Council are to be congratulated on the excellent manner in which they have performed their duties. Sports Council B “ k R S 0 : Ray Bria —“

Girls ' Senior Volleyball The Senior Volleyball team did not make out as well as the Juniors. Every game was very exciting and, although successful in winning only two, each girl did her best and was a credit to the school. Isaac Newton proved to be the outstanding team and certainly deserves the honor. Many thanks are due to Douglass Small, who gave up much of his time to coach the girls, and we are sure that it was through no fault of his that more games were not won. Miss King also deserves many thanks for organizing a club, getting many girls interested and giving much of her time. Girls ' Junior Volleyball The Junior Volleyball games this year turned out very well for the girls, and everyone was satisfied with having done her best. The girls were victorious in every game except the two played against Daniel McIntyre They were hard games and a treat to watch as well as to play. The girls wish to convey their thanks to Douglas Small for his splendid coaching. We are certain that through his able efforts we were placed a close second to Daniel McIntyre. Also many thanks are due Miss King for the time and the help and encouragement she gave.
