BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT The final honors for the inter-class basketball tournament went to the Senior College class after a hard fought battle with the Juniors.

A tournament was held later in March to determine who was the best player in each of these games.

In the final game the Cherokces defeated the Hiawassccs and became the baseball champions of 1936. that Someday someone will invent a gun that will just fit Mrs. Dorsey’s “little bird.” that There's a rumor that one night the Dean got in her car and just vowed and declared she was going to sec Sally Rand per- form in Asheville. that Perhaps the flu epidemic wouldn't have been so bad, if most of the girls hadn't had the recent shock of seeing fifty-one boys in Montreat (“and all at one time too! Mercy!” said Miss Wade.) that It takes both Miss Watkins and Miss Lord to keep the water turned off in their bathroom. Remember how they went flying upstairs during supper one time to attend to the mat- ter? Don’t Inr afraid for Madame’s putting this in her col-' umns, for Miss Watkins told Rox Scafler that she could at least try to take a joke.” that Miss Hoyt had a terribly high fever when she was sick. “How high is your fever?” she was asked. “Two-tenths of a degree,” was the reply. that Estelle Isenhour was shocked considerably the other day when she kept knocking Carolyn Allan's elbow at the tabic. She was just ready to accuse Carolyn of being left-handed when she discovered she herself was eating with her left hand. that Speaking of Carolyn reminds Madame that Carolyn is cer- tainly getting absent-minded. She recently put her fork on her lap and started eating with her napkin. that When Gilbert and “Penny get back at the table with Sadie Hall Woodruff, somebody s going to have to go hungry. that An exclusive little tea party was held at one of the senior tables one noon-time. (Lottice, Elsie, and Vivian seem to have lost their liking for tea since then.) that Many seniors felt that their picture didn’t do them justice. Madame wonders if it wasn't mercy they needed instead. that She wonders if Sarah Groves will still be receiving letters from Rah-bcht at Agnes Scott next year. Or is he partial just to girls at Montreat? that It is convenient to have eyebrows that one can change to suit her mood. Ask Elaine Laurent. that Ila Mae hasn’t been wading lately. Wc wonder if it’s be- cause of rusty nails. ( ?) that Everyone is glad to sec Mrs. Anderson out among us once , more.
