Hockey, Baseball, and Tennis Variety is the spice of life, and variety in athletics furnishes the spice of sport to the girls of M. S. N. S. Every girls finds some game at some time of the year which claims her interest and attention. When autumn draws near, the beautiful hockey field sends back shouts of laughter and cheer as our hockey team strives again and again to win renown in spirited rivalry with other schools. There has been an organized team for sev- eral years, and hockey has proved to be one of our most popular sports. The season is short, however, for Dame Winter soon ends it and claims the short days following for her share in basketball. With the approach of spring, our girls show that they are indeed men ' s equals and compete with other teams in that world-wide, exciting game of baseball. This is a com- paratively new sport in our school, but judging from the interest shown last spring, there is no doubt that it will soon become one of the major sports of the school. The days become longer and warmer, and the ever enthusiastic tennis fans get out their trusty racquets. After weeks of strenuous practice the tennis tournament is played off. Last year there were many exciting contests before the competitors for the finals could be decided upon. These were played by Elizabeth Norris and Casilda Clark, and after a hard-fought battle Casilda emerged, the victor. May the inter.est and enthusiasm which have been made manifest by the girls in the past year, be an incentive to all those participating in the sports of the future.
