THE ECI-roEs 79 Qzrlf' Q1 flzletzky EARLY in the fall the girls of P. C. V. S. met to elect an execu- tive to look after their sports. The results of this election were as follows: H01'1.PT6S1id67Zf.' Miss D. E. Brisbin President Isabel Wray Secretary' VVilma Saunders T1'8GSZH'6l'.' Peggy Lawless FIELD DAY, OCTOBER 7, 1936 This year the weatherman did everything in his power to make field day an outstanding success for our school. The girls took every advantage of his generosity to show their interest and fine sportsmanship. The competition was keen in all events, but especially in the senior group. Peggy Lawless won the senior championship with 18 points, just one point more than Mary MacPherson's record. The intermediate cup was won by Helen Beatty, junior champion of last year. We expect to hear more about Helen next year. Jean Carter showed herself to be a budding athlete by winning the junior trophy. Another feature of our field day this year was a booth sponsored by the Boys' and Girls' Athletic Association. VVEINER ROAST On the nineteenth of November the girls held their annual Weiner roast, in the school gymnasium. The games were supervised by lVIiss Brisbin. A very exciting volley-ball game between the academic and commercial started the entertainment off with a bang. A very amusing skit was put on by IA Academic. Soon the Weiners began to appear and disappear. . The Weiner roast once more was a very successful affair. VOLLEY-BALL Each year the girls are becoming more enthusiastic about volley-ball. Because it is becoming more interest- ing as the girls understand it better, and a large number of girls are needed to take part in it, it is a very popular game. After the inter-form play-offs the laurels went to III Commercial, who were successful in defeating VA Aca- demic by a considerable score. Bczfketbfzll ALARGE number of girls turned out to basketball practice this year to uphold the honour of the school. Although they didn't win, they played their best at all times. The girls are especially indebted to the Students' Council for the grant to buy new uniforms, which everyone agrees are exceedingly smart. Those who were fortunate enough to make the Senior Team were: M ary MacPI1ers01z - our captain - who is certainly worthy of the confi- dence the girls placed in her. She is our best forward and the fastest player on the floor. Mary has the happy faculty of scoring with but a minute left to play and thus saving the game. Ruth Ellis - forward - who plays a good game on defense, but when a forward is needed Ruthie is the one to take the place. Her long shots often fool her opponents and incidentally raise the score. ll'iIda Saunders QBQZJSD - centre for- ward - who, even though short, over- comes this by her speed and ability to handle the ball. joan Ottewell - who plays alternate guard and forward. Although this is her first year she has proved herself to be a steady capable player. Doris Glover f guard - who is an- other addition to the line-up this year. She can be depended upon at all times to prevent her opponents from scoring. Peggy Lawless - alternate guard - Cmztiamed on page 81

78 THE ECHOES 1 'ewkaiec , 1 THE HOCKEY TEAM BACK RUXY S Csumrik, H Pzrrnall, 1 Patterson, R Purnell. If Patterson FRUNT RUXY G Pettersone, H King, :X King, B Uorris, E XY.irll, II Morrow Hofiey H1rCKEX', which has been more or less neglected in the school in the past, came into its own this year when a team was entered in the South' End League. XYe were fortunate in obtain- ing the services of -lack Patterson as coach and manager. A decided factor in the teams success this year is the fact that the boys hav e played hockey together for several seasons. Exhibition games proved to be by far the best of the seasons play. We lost to Grox e Preparatory School twice and defeated Lakeheld High School once. The attendance of students in large numbers at our exhibition games was quite encouraging. Due to an unfinished schedule, we have been unable to list the scores of all our games, but Kirma has prophe- sied a championship for us. The team was composed of Bud Driscoll in goal, who certainly proved a stumbling block to opposing for- wards. Bill King, Hop XYard and Steve Czumrik made up a hard hitting defence. The speedy forwards, Mink Morrow, Bob Parnall, Alf. King and Pete Pettersone, together with Ralph Parnell and Bill Doris, were certainly dangerous to opposing teams. This year we have been successful. but next winter will see us better than ever. SCORES OF scHEDL'LED GAxIEs TO DATE King Edward 2 St. Peters 2 King Edward 2 0 Aces 2 -l Canucks 2 P. C. Y.
