Co-Ed Swimming EADY, go! They're off-to add to their list of victories. Undefeated in 1930 the Violet mermaids bid fair to repeat this year. All members have been prac- ticing regularly at the Church of All Nations. Although this team is also afiected by the ruling of the Physical Education Depart- ment the team still has a strong line-up. Hettie Schnee is both captain and manager. As team mates she has Florence Levine, Iris jakobb, Ada Monroe, Maxine Bracket, Sadie Zuckerbetg, Edna Lewis and Lisa Lindstrom. Miss Lindstrom is holder of the Women's National Long Distance Swimming Title. She's some girl. Under the guidance of their coach, Miss Frankie Froatz, the squad tackled a schedule which included Hunter, Savage, Swarthmore, Passe Nissen, Adelphi and Sar- geant. To be exact if undefeated this season, the team will have gone five years without a defeat. 207

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.

The School of Educalion in Sporls NCE settled in its new home, the School of Education seemed suddenly to expand in every direction. Music, Psychology, Physical Education and Health, Home Economics-all departments seemed imbued with new life. But such growth was not limited to intra-mural activities. Outside activities grew, and pre- dominant among these were Sports. In the past, while Commerce and Washington Square were indulging in extra-mural sports, the School of Education seemed to have its right to such activities curtailed. This year, however, finds it inaugurating a new policy. The Student Council has set aside a definite fund for the encouragement and maintenance of athletics. This fund was turned over to the Physical Education Organization to be handled by that body through Mr. N. Tilem. The following pages contain a record of the activities operating under this fund. If one will stop for a moment to consider the fact that prior to this year only a basket- ball team was active, he will realize the extent of the progress made within the past six months. Such unusual progress, due to exceptionally efficient organization, gives promise of a bright future for all such activities in the School of Education. 208
