24 VOX FLUMINIS . J winners were: Roberta McQueen in the singles, and Hazel Mc- Millan and Doris Pelkey in the doubles. Great improvement was shown by the end of the season and it is hoped that interest and enthusiasm for Badminton will be even greater during the next winter season. 4 I.N. RIDING VERY Wednesday afternoon about two o'clock fthe weather permittingj, a gathering of laughing, excited girls assembles on the steps of the middle house. These girls form a group of en- thusiastic riders, a group which has grown so large that it has been found necessary to divide it into two sections ,a senior section, which leaves at two o'clock, and a junior section, which leaves when the seniors return. As you now know, the group assembled on the steps is the senior section. The girls are impatiently waiting for two things, one, a teacher to accompany them while out riding, and two, a car to take them to the stables, for, much as these girls enjoy riding, they do not relish the idea of trotting the horses along Osborne Street. As the two olclock bell rings, the door of the house opens, and Miss Fraser appears, ready for the ride, while a green Ford car draws up in front of the steps. With wild shrieks that would do credit to the most savage Indians, the girls scramble down the steps and into the waiting car. Doors slam and they are off for one glorious hour on horseback, trotting sedately along bridle paths and cantering and galloping wildly across open fields. When the hour is up the seniors return and the juniors go out for their ride, where they have an equally good time. Riding this year is under the direction of Miss Fraser, and it is largely due to her interest that such enthusiasm is aroused in all those who take up the sport. M.K. fi, I . f is It
