Educaiion Swimming Team HE swimming team shows great promise for the coming season. There are many former high school stars practicing under the able coaching of Mr. Eastwood, who is to be commended on his excellent work. It was largely through the efforts of Manager Solatar and his assistant Falkowitz that the team was started. Though they encountered some dilhculty in securing a pool, they hnally made arrangements for the use of the 60th Street Pool. Mondays were the only days set aside for practice and, to make even that one practice, the fellows have had to rush to and from classes at the Square. In spite of the handicaps, the squad has turned in a good report for the season. A glimpse at the schedule will show the dilliculty of the task they undertook. SCHEDULE, 193 1 Brooklyn Central 12nd Teamj, 23rd St. Y. M. C. A., West Side Y. M. C. A., Flush- ing Y. M. C. A., Prospect Park Y. M. C A, Bartholomew's Church, Montclair Normal. 211

1 Educa+ion Baske+baII HIS is not the first venture of the School of Education into inter-collegiate basket- ball. It is, however, the best organized, In Red Wolf the team has found an excellent coach. Red, an exceptional player himself, is a student in the Department of Physical Education. About the small nucleus of Seniors who formerly represented the School, Red has gathered a group of sophomores and juniors who show ample ability to take up where this year's team leaves OH. So far this squad has given a fair account of itself. It has tackled a resonably difii- cult schedule with a vigor that bodes ill for the rest of its opponents. Though defeated in several close, hotly contested games, notably those with C. C. N. Y., Commerce, and St. Francis, the quintet wound up its season with a creditable record. It is hoped that in the future more men from the Music, Art, and Secondary Educational departments will come out for the team. 1930-31 SCHEDULE 1 i Nov. 26, St. Francis, Dec. 5, Columbia Pharmacy, Dec. 10, Jamaica Training, jan. 9, Montclair Normal, Feb. 27, jamaica Training, March 6, Montclair Normal, March 13, Columbia Pharmacy, March 7, Brooklyn College. 210

Educaiionl Soccer HE Hrst soccer team to represent the New York University School of.Education was organized by Mr. Samuel Portnoy, Physical Education, '33. It was through Mr. Porrnoy's efforts that a schedule of four games was arranged and played this past fall. The team was tutored by the ever reliable Mr. Nat Tilem, who developed a well coached combination in a rather short space of time. Mr. Tilem is to be commended for his tireless efforts in seeing so fine a project through its infancy this past season. In 1930 the outfit was forced to be content with one victory, two scoreless ties, and one defeat. The soccerites defeated a strong St. john's college eleven 1-Og were held to scoreless ties by Seth Low junior College and the New York Stock Exchangeg and suffered their only setback at the hands of the Brooklyn City College contingent. Future plans include games with State Teachers College at East Stroudsburg, Pa., a Faculty-Student game, N. Y. Stock Exchange, Panzer College of Physical Education and Seth Low junior College. At the time of this writing the complete schedule is not as yet available. 212
