In the basketball club, four girls were chosen to captain the black, plaid, white and red teams. Eenie, meenie, miney, moe-and teams were chosen. The White team showed immediate superiority and, in spite of the iight, put up by the other teams led by the black, walked off with the honors. The Leaders Club exercises left many stiff muscles too. Possibly the best of all things is the Play Days. Each school played host in turn and all the schools sent several representatives to each Play Day. Midwood's, last term, was a big success and every- one had a great deal of fun. Winter was the theme, and the gym was decorated accordingly. Girls became members of either the snowball, skiman, snowflake, or snowman team by being given a tag of one of the teams. Battleball played on the volleyball court with fluffy balls of cotton, a limerick contest in which each team had to supply a last line to a rhyme given them, a basketball game, and the craziest varieties of relay races including cracker-eating, three-legged walk- ing, feet-in-crates race, and walking on paper were among the things done. The delicious refreshments later really topped off a Wonderful afternoon. After the business at Friday afternoon Doxa meetings was finished, time was spent making laniards for whistles or going out bowling or riding together. The seven Doxa girls who are becoming alumni this term are: Nancy Bloom, Faye Davis, Barbara Denemark, Anne Elardi, jose- phine Ferrare, Marie Ingrassia, Marcia Silverman. Participation in athletics has encouraged the fine qualities of good sportsmanship, cooperation and clean living. MITZI SILVERMAN AN 21

HEHCULEA Think of girls' sports and what comes to mind but the most heckled and ribbed organization in Midwood. That, of course, is Doxa, girls' athletic honor society. Under the spirited guidance of faculty adviser, Miss Kagan, Doxa has really gone to town. Ushering at Midwoodls big events and guarding the colors at all assemblies are two of the functions of the society. And whom do you think kept the gym equipment in such ship-shape condition? The Doxa girls mixed work with fun while keeping balls scrubbed and inflated. In the Field of girls' athletics, there are a great many things to be remembered. In the volleyball club, the girls were divided by terms and when the setting-up and double tapping were over, it was the seniors who emerged as the victors. 20
