Immediately all eyes were centered on the ball as it glided sudden- ly through the air and was volleyed back and forth for several min- utes. Bouncing on the floor it was immediate- ly snatched up by some excited team member and passed to the server. The players shifted positions, thus the thrilling game of volleyballproceeded. Approximately 160 peppy athletes turned out for practice. Any girl had the opportunity to select a team from her class to compete in a round robin tournament. The winning teams played interclass games to determine the championship title. Jennie Marcucci's team won the championship from her fellow freshmen. Bernice Walberg's determined team captured laurels for the sophomores after a game with Jane Urbackls team. Katie Kolar's speedy six edged out Lena Geombetti's squad for the junior championship. Ann Kosovich's senior champions displayed brilliant teamwork, trimming Jane Merhar's team. A final tournament was held and the seniors were first. 13
