Several times a week the girls competed after school hours- funior high frosh were unable to appear for the picture. 'J . IRECTED by a new advis- v er, Mrs. Mary Top, the Girls Athletic association closed its records with the installation of next year's officers.

Their program is because of having to share the gymnasium with the c boys after school during the basketball season, and E field is too far away to permit its use for organized 4 activities. Hence these last must of necessity be conf individual or group projects. One need that is keenly felt is the provision of tenni: ing and competition for the feminine racquet wielders. girls would like to take up this sport. but lack the enci ment of an organized program. is 'i W
