Winner of VICTOR TROPHY Presented by the Athletic Board to the stu- dent who has contributed most to athletics through proficiency, sportsmanship, and ver- satility in the field. 1935 HAZEL BOSWELL COLLEGE CHEER LEADER or, ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION KATHERINE LILES ITH Katherine Liles as president, the Woman ' s Athletic Association contributed in a large measure to the happiness, health, and well-being of the Meredith girl of 1935- ' 36. Keeping before it the objective of reaching each and every girl, the A. A. enlarged its program of athletics, sponsored parties and social events, presented motion pictures of campus life and educational films, and secured speakers with messages of interest for the students. The primary project before the A. A. this year was the long-contemplated swimming pool. With the cooperation of the Alumnae Association, the students, and friends of the college, the plans were definitely formed and the campaign for funds wa3 launched. Stunt Day was inaugurated last fall, and the whole afternoon before Stunt Night was devoted to interclass and alumna? athletic contests, a polio race, and singing contests. As a consequence of the success of this undertaking, a whole day was set aside for next year ' s program.

BASKETBALL Nancy Bunn, Manager The ever-popular major sport took many forms this year — intra- mural teams in addition to the usual class teams and honorary varsity. Dorm teams were worked up by members of the Sophomore and Junior Class teams. TENNIS Nell Choate, Manager This branch of the athletic pro- gram 11.1s active in both fall and spring. Individual lessons were given to many students. The fall and spring tournaments aroused keen interest and close competition. GOLF Pauline Davis, Manager Golf gained a hold on the student life this year. Instruction was given to those desiring it during the fall. During the spring term many girls journeved to the links to test and display their skill. ' a SWIMMING Dorothy Prevost, Manager Although still having to do their swimming in off-the-campus pools, Meredith girls are looking ahead with pride to the swimming pool that will simie day be their own. ARCHERY Ruth Abernethy, Manager Archery was another sport which ran throughout the year, weather permitting. Instruction was given to many who had never before raised a bow. Ruth Abernethy was the competent instructor. BASEBALL Mae Marshbamks, Manager The bats, balls and gloves were sure harbingers of spring on the campus this year. The first real spring days brought them into evi- dence, where they have enjoyed prominence since. Baseball held its place as a favorite minor sport. SOCCER Frances Pittman, Manager Soccer proved itself a favorite sport during this, its second year on the campus. Practice games brought petitive games created no little ex- citement among contestants as well as spectators. HIKING Louise Hei.sabeck, Manager Hiking became a particularly popular sport in the spring when the A. A. secured a cabin and cook- ing utensils to be put at the disposal of the hikers. The call to the high- mail svas answered bv many enthu- MINOR SPORTS Ruth Privott, Manager New bicycles, additional ping- pong equipment, croquet, and vol- leyball all extended the field of minor sports in 1935-36. Minor sports particularly came to the fore- front on such occasions as Stunt Day and May Day. BASKETBALL CHAMPIONS The Sophomore Class, winner of the Basketball Cup for the 1935 season, wrested the championship title from the Senior Class, who had held a hitherto undefeated record for three successive years. In one round of interclass games, the Sophomores defeated the Juniors and Seniors and tied the Freshmen. Good sportsmanship and cooperation characterized their play.
