Three healthy girls of the Monarch girls' swim team bend poised for action. The team enthusi- astically ignored the cold air and water during practice and competition. - blin- The fifth period girls' gym class kicked away at a soccer ball during the winter. Monarch girls are offered a great variety of sports and participate in many during the year. The modified sarapes are called pennies and serve to disting- uish one team from another. WH 0 .VA KY' GIRLS' ARE' ITAGILE. Since time began, the female of the species has been called weak, spineless, something less than intelligent, and defi- nitely meant for the stove and sink. But M. V. 's women have changed all that. The soft, delicate look of Monarch girls ends as they enter the gym doors. Within ten minutes they are transformed into robust, eager sports fans ready to exert themselves on the tennis courts, on the baseball dia- monds, in a swimming pool, on the ping-pong tables, or before the modern dance mirrors. The tennis and swimming teams braved sore muscles to challenge other schools. But the most publicized girl athletes are the go-getters on the Junior and Senior basketball teams. They seriously practice for weeks before the celebrated event and the result is defi- nitely not a bevy of fragile females. Organized last year, the girls' tennis team weathered many mishaps to emerge full of spirit and eager to play. When difficulties arose over new insurance regulations the team ceased activity for a while. But later the girls again faced the net with President Chris Dagget and Secretary Marie Williams leading the way. The girls held their own against other schools in an all-league tournament and emerged with a good record.
