Under the capable direction of Bliss Brisbin, assisted by Miss Mclntosh, Miss Bailey and Miss Jamieson, the girls played games for about an hour. A main feature of this year's wiener roast was the short program presented before lunch. The girls of Ha Academic presented a dance which was followed by group dancing and singing and a very pretty dance by lil. fvlacpherson, L. Comstock and F. Trebilcock. After the serving of hotdogs and doughnuts everyone joined in a grand march and the wiener roast closed with lthree rousing cheers. +g4-- X-X Bbe fllunior Yvoys' fivasketball Beam i HE 1934-35 Junior Basketball team was composed of a group of interc-it hard- working boys.

WHS El-3455.5 Ajlcrsonmzl of Girls' f1J.G1.V.S. :Basketball Beam HGLADU CIARVOLTH-NB6tlS no introduction to P.C.V.S. students. Although it was her first year on any team, she proved to be one of the best forwards. Her brilliant personality combined with her ability as a player led her team mates to elect her as captain of the team. Sl1e filled her position well and worthy of the confidence placed in her. HGLADDIEH GERARD-Played as regular guard on the team. Her passing was fast and good and intercepting of passes clever. Her playing was often spectacular. In addition her ability to combine with others rather than to play a lone game made her a valuable member of the team. Gladdie was the fastest player on the Hoor and her speed proved a great asset. K'ltIARI0N HARVEY-Vvas an alternate forward-she played a good combination game, working well with her team mates. We expect her back next year to take her place as 0116 of the star forwards on the team. r HKATY,, ROGOYY'1SllC played as alternate guard and in this position did some very fine work. She possessed a real knowledge of the game. Katy had the knack of sticking with her opponent. always being in the right place and no forward could shake her. MAR1 ' IVICPHERSON-A regular forward. Probably no member of the team improved more than Diary. Her shooting is accurate and passing quick and good. She could always be depended on to get points when they were most needed. W1NN1E', SNOWDEN-Gaye real leadership to the guards. It was she on whom we depended when the opposing forwards were threatening our basket a11d she never failed us. Winnie gave all her resource and energy all the time. Her playing was consistently effective in intercepting passes. Her long shots were one of her strong points. Though her playing was not always spectacular. it was of high merit. iiK.AY,, CADDY-An alternate forward. She is a yery steady player and shows real promise in that position. Due to an injured ankle she was unable to continue in the latter part of the season. lVIARG WOOD-Played as regular centre forward. Her height which is above the average enabled her to fill this trying position skillfully. She was an all round good playerg a good shot, with good team-play. She proved to be a very game, reliable player. RUTH HUNTER-An alternate guard. She also made goodruse of her height around the basket, getting the rebounds and passing them up the floor to the forwards. She was most effective in blocking passes. HMISS BR1sBIN -VVhen the basketball season opened this year Bliss Brisbin found herself faced with the task of building up a team of entirely new players. This year there was an exceptionally good turn out of faithful basketball enthusiasts and those who were chosen for the team were worthy of the honour. Brizzie's sunny dis- position and understanding nature made her a great favourite with the girls. Although the team ran a close second for the championship, they failed by a small margin to 11056 out the Cobourg veterans tChampions of 19343. and they at least were success-
