1. 1 - Girls' gym activities are planned according to the seasons of the year. Best adapted to the fresh, fall days was field hockey. To many of the girls it was a new sport, but they soon mastered it fairly well and looked forward to the brisk run to and from the field. With the arrival of winter and snow, basketball took the spotlight. lt was the most popular sport with the girls. Each of the classes had two or three teams which, in friendly rivalry, played for the various class championships. The first hour champions, The Startling All Stars, were captained by Alice Britteny the second hour champions were the Surprises captainecl by Diana Haight, third hour Winners were the Flat Foot Floogies captained by Ellen Ptoddis, the victors of the fourth hour were The Cherubs captained by Margaret Martin. Next came the fascinating game of volley ball. Classes were divided into teams as in basketball. Some of the girls, while not expert in basketball, seemed to have a sixth sense in volley ball technique. , The peace and quiet of the gym classes were sometimes shattered by the helpful and healthful appearance of corrective exercises which many times left the girls stiff and aching the next day. ' As the time drew near for the biggest event of the,year for the Physical Education students, the Gym Demonstration, class periods were used in learning new exercises and marching. - V .

However, the ad- vanced squad of the Tumbling Club do just these things. Girls who are still trying to do are aided by the advanced squad. The Tumbling Club was featured in the Gym Demonstration. ldmfpfieft infa Zfze Gym Glafua 5 ' . 4 -.-gssD
