Ski Club The Ski Club under President Rhonee Fried is pres- ently becoming the most popular club in P-W. It is a unique club because it concentrates on the individual, rather than a select few. Novice skiers have no reason to be embarrassed due to limited skiing knowledge. Under the leadership of their sponsors, Mr. Bieler, Mr. Weyl, Mrs. Sayare, and Miss Ekberg, the club has adopted a motto: uWe just don,t ignore the beginners, we try to help them W The club through a lot of work raised money for their trips. The mountains include Camelback, Elk, Big Boulder, and closer to home Doe, and Spring Mountain. Next yearts schedule promises to be packed tightly LEFT T0 RIGHT: R. Fried, President, S.

Fencing Fencing is not the most popular sport here at P-W, but approximate- ly 20 girls have learned and are mas- tering the fundamentals of fencing, and find it quite exciting. The se- niors have been fencing now for three years and are quite good, while the sophomores and juniors are progress- ing rapidly. Once again, under the direction of Mrs. Pavlak, P-W,s fencers met ev- ery Monday to perfect their skills. The clubts goals are to teach fencing and to have members fence competi- tively. The group traveled to the University of Pennsylvania to attend fencing matches and hopes to have some of the girls competing in matches in the near future. So the future of our fencers seems to be very promising. IRST ROW: D. Elias, D. Juzaitis, Mrs. B. Pavlak, Sponsor, N. Scott. SECOND ROW: M. Hess, P. Lund, D. rocks, J. Smith, A. Furman. THIRD ROW: C.

Indoor Track Few teams have ever progressed as well and as rapidly as the Indoor Track Team. The last two years have wit- nessed the building of a strong and determined team. Every man gave one hundred percent all of the time. When he finished his race, his job was only half finished, the rest of it was to help a teammate. Every effort was a team effort. When one man won, the entire team won, not only as athletes, but as individuals . The ,71 Colonials are now a part of the past. The E , medals won, the records broken, and the races both won .. and lost are remnants of a season gone by. But another E part of the season remains with each member of the ' team; the conviction that desire and determination make anything possible. After all, isnlt that what this thing is all about?

Chess 8t Bowlin ,Wiiw w, i, , This year, the Chess Club met every Tuesday afternoon under the direction of Mr. Staub. The chess team, itself, was comprised of the clubis five best players: seniors, Larry Fleming and Richard Gang- wisch, who played first and sec- ond boards, and three sopho- mores. Morgan Conrad, the most outstanding underclass- man, played third board. The team competed with other schools in the North Sub- urban League on Friday after- noons and managed to build quite a name for themselves in competition. Mr. Staub is look- ing forward to an even better year next year. LEFT TO RIGHT: R. Furman, M. Conrad, D. Weinstein, R. Gangwisch, J . Nederostek, S. Herman, R. Wheeler, B. Leo- pold, J. Ojanpera, M. Hess. During the sixth year, under Mr. Sparanois sponsor- ship, the Bowling Club continued to present a great way to spend one after- noon a week. A high score was no longer a requirement this year, because the Bowling Club was mainly an enjoyable pasttime, which helped fill the activi- ty lull between the fall and winter sports seasons.
