Special attention is given to the technique of short, rapid passing, free throwing, and floor work. Too, an elaborate system of signals plays an imoortant part in the LAICFT ' Y game.

BUWLING As the big ball goes whirling down the maples, the lustv voices of the femmes ring out with Strike or Gutter-ball. Vieing with her previous record, each girl is determined to improve her game. At the beginning of each line. she approaches the foul line with a little more finesse. For the most part scores have remained consistently high among this group of amateurs, and the advantages to the participants have been legion. Certainly it is one of the high school sports that has come to stay. l lliS'l' ALIACY: M. 'l'lll'Ilt'l', ll. Klvllllxl, U, llivll. li, filly, SIGPONIJ Al.l.I'IY: ll. Katy.

GULF Veterans of the greens were amazed, no end. last fall when the femmes with their agile grace and form made their initial appearance on the links. However, con- sternation on the part of the seasoned golfers and their urge to seek cover at the call of the soprano fore', soon passed as the girls, drives became more professional. Complaints of muscular fatigue, sore feet, and weighty bags, though common during the beginning weeks, soon gave way to the desire to excel in this satisfying sport. Golf was enthusiastically received and no doubt will be perpetuated as a per- manent girls' activity. SlCA'I'l'1l1: M. Frost, li. Kziv, S. lllomiu-ss. M, XYzlll:lm'e. S. .I+-nsvu. IP. Tillnmzinn.
