W A new sport has been added to the girls3 physical education department. This sport is horse-shoes, which is on the minor sport list. Girls have shown a great interest and the possibility is that it may become one of the outstanding sports. Shown in action are Con- stadina Dades, Margaret Munoz, Rose Parento, Helen Georgantes and Elsie Rodriguez. Into the spotlight came another game, called bad- minton-a new sport of batting the hirdie across the net. Tournaments of singles and doubles were played. Arranging the net are Lorraine Andrcucetti, Lorraine Celia, Frances Solinas and Evelyn Miller, while Mary Taylor and Martha Nomura are waiting;r anxiously to start a game. Soft-hall was the featured sport this year. It rated as a major sport. Every grade was represented in the girls intramural league. Pictured playing in a game are Aurora Avila, Encdina Avila, Bernice Carter, Hel- ene Seligman, Julia Stragmalia and Mary Ann Tum- pich. Journeying to the football field at old McClymonds. future girl Robin Hoods practiced the ancient art of archery. Four of the outstanding players seen aiming are Grace Wilcox, Phyllis Davis, Susie Vartanian and Monica Acton. 0n the field at this school grounds, girls employed their skill in the game of hit-pin baseball. This sport figured as only a minor game.
