Co-Ed Hockey HE co-ed varsity hockey team successfully completed its schedule this year with a rec- ord of five victories, one tie, and two defeats. Their defeats, one at the hands of Connecticut Aggies and the other by Manhattanville, were avenged. Connecticut Aggies were set back in another match, and Manhattanville defaulted a scheduled return meeting. Beaver offered an exciting game, which ended in a tie. It should have been a victory for N. Y. U. but-you know how it isg breaks and all that! The Violet Lassies enjoyed a trip to Virginia late in November. There they vanquished the William and Mary squad. Seeking a new thrill they returned from the Southland by boat. Some were thrilled. The splendid playing of Captain Helen Pat Schroeder and Lillian Dembitz on defense was probably the biggest factor in the Violet victories. But don't forget the forward line! Somebody had to score to win the game. 205

Golf AST year for the first time since 1927, New York University was represented by a golf team in intercollegiate competition. Golf had been dropped by the board of athletic control at the close of the 1927 season due to lack of interest on the part of the student body. Like many other things as soon as an activity is dropped the interest grows. The popularity of the game grew so rapidly that an informal team was organized last season with the consent of Albert B. Nixon, Graduate Manager of Athletics. Three matches were played during the season with colleges in the Metropolitan District. The Violet representatives winning two of the three matches. In the first meet Rutgers proved entirely too strong for our inexperienced team and walked off with an 8 to 1 victory. For the final two meets teams from Fordham and St. John's were outclassed by a much improved Violet 'team. New York University won both matches by the score of 5 to 1. An exceptionally difiicult schedule has been arranged for the 1951 Violet golfers. Prospects for a splendid team look very bright. TEAM J.

l Co-Ed Baskelball HE outlook for this year's feminine court squad is certainly none too bright. Last season the team just managed to hold its head above water by winning seven and losing six games. Graduation took the former captain Mildred Lindeblatt out of competition, which was a big enough loss in itself, but what hit hardest was the decision of the Physical Education Department to limit the varsity competition of girls enrolled in its ranks. This move cost the team its present captain, Eileen Magee, its Assistant Manager and center, Alice Tesar, and a number of other stellar performers. It is hoped that Coach Foley will be able to draw sufficient material from the teams competing in the intra-murals. Helen Schroeder and Rose jaboolian are the only regulars to weather the storm but they are an excellent pair to use as the core of a new sextet. SCHEDULE january 12, Scudder School, at home.
