we sw we Cglze feminine amazons cannot be ignored ew we cw ew Qirls 2 ports are at last beginning to assume the importance of being more than a name at Millard High School. The girls have proved that they too have some of the initiative that has made the boys' teams so superb, On the softball diamond and the basketball floor, they have led out with a drive and fire that show that, BUILDERS OF-PYRAMIDS . . . Even the boxing and wrestling ring had no objection to such a sight! But, you better be careful girls-remember: gravity! ! though opposing teams came them one better, they should, with more material backing and encouragement, be able to cop honors in the feminine field. Their lightweight and elasticity have made them extremely agile on the tumbling mat, as they demonstrated in performing pyramids and individual feats. Our hats are off to the mighty girls who seek to emulate their masculine counter- parts, and to Mrs. Smithson, their teacher, a leader with an over-abundance of energy who put Girls' Physical Education on the mat. 84

Yes, even on Vernon Hunter and Carl Verhaaren, our faithful instructors, who, according to their laboratory-method of teaching must suffer too. For what greater satisfaction could there be for any student than to meet his teacher in a cornered ring. It is here that practice and theory must combine or consequences will be felt-Dancing with eyes on the gloves . . . to stretch out . . . in corners . . . to dream as well as winning the ring's decision embraced . . . on knees . , . enflamed must be practiced.
