trut Their tuff 0 A ROAR RISES from the crowd as the hird sails into foul territory at the badminton tournament held at the Miami Beach gym December l2, where Ponce placed third and lost the trophy. The match shown here is heing played hy Barbara Neel and Gayle Schwartz against Jennie and Bettie Caudell. As we go to press, the girls, tennis team, headed by Judy Mclntyre, has not yet lin- ished their inter-team tournament. The girls who place lirst, second, third, and fourth will challenge each other until only one win- ner remains. Check those trim iigures! They are the girls on the water hallet team who call them- selves the Terrapins. These girls put on water shows at the Deauville Pool. Fine shows they are, too. Last on the list is the invigorating game of ping-pong. The phys. ed. department plans to hold an intramural tournament in the middle of April. --JANE WVHITE Pictured left to right, first row: Nancy Albury, Ann Jordan, Judy Melntyre, .Terre Brigham, Elena Morales: top row: Bonnie Austin, Camille Oelkers, Susan Hefner, Harriet Quillian, ,lane White, Pat Fitzgerald, Carol Culliver.

Ponce Glamazons TAKE YOUR AIM! Bulls-eye! These archers pictured here are only four of the many fine marksnlen here at Ponce. Look at that form-the proper stance for archers, that is. Archery teaches hand and eye coordination, and gives Cupid a little assistance, perhaps? Experience proves that there's nothing better to bring out competitive instinct than a fight for an inflated basketball. We take back that last statement in view of the after-school workout on the basket- ball courts demonstrated below. Spike it! Side out! These are the shouts you heard on the volleyball courts after school last October. On the right Mary Ann Batcheller smashes the ball across the net to Gayle Schwartz. Pull out the mats! Tuck in your chins! Try forming a human pyramid as this group of tumblers are doing. Quite an accomplishment I mJANE WHITE Left to right are: .lopie Theed, Marilyn Ellison, and Harriet Logan. .lackie Williams places a neat field goal in the basket during the Junior High basketball tournament held here at Ponce on the seventeenth of January.

I just had to call you up to tell you all about the volleyball tournament held at Moore Park November 4. Nobody seemed to want the number 13, so as usual I took it. You should have seen the mess everyone was in. Managers Evelyn Fitzpatrick and Suzanne Hardin were so busy seeing to it that everyone had the right numbers that they forgot to give the score- keepers the right information. Judy McIntyre, captain of the A Team, told us, u0ur first game will be against the Edison Red Raiders. They beat usg then we had a chance to watch the B Team tackle the Edison B Team. Our team won! Wie then played Homestead and with the help of some spectacular plays by Barbara Bowyer and Trixie Fosgate, we won by an easy margin. The B Team played a winning game with Homestead. Jackson gave us our second defeat and put us out of the tourna- ment. Play-off Necessary ' Winning over Edison in the semi-finals, the B Team stood face to face with the fa- mous Miami High Stingarees, who gave them their first defeat. That made it necessary to play off another game which the Stingarees won. Wlhen the winning teams were announced, I was told that the A Team placed fourth and the B Team placed second. As Shakespeare would say, g'Leave us not forget the freshmenli' Well, Sue, there were so many frosh that it was necessary to hold tournaments at four schools. The Ponce teams played at the Edi- son High School gym. Shenandoah Our Rival .Both the A and B Teams placed second, losing only to Shenandoah, our most deadly rival. The tremendous success of both those teams was due to the expert coaching by Cap- tains Carrel Power and Audrey Obarski. That's all there is to tell you, so I guess I7d better hang up. Good-bye for now. --PAULINE MARKS
