CARRY HALL 1946-1947 GARRY Hall has experienced a very success- ful year. We had as staff of our house Miss Burns, Mrs. Doerksen and Miss Arnold. We were very fortunate in having Patt Mc- Carthy, the school sports captain, as a member of Garry. We heartily congratulate Donna Smale and Shelagh Lawson on their co-opera- tion as house executives. The field day proved a successful event for Garry as we won the senior activity trophy. A Christmas hamper was prepared and de- livered by the members of the house. A letter of appreciation was received from the family to whom the hamper was sent. As the year comes to a close I wish to extend my appreciation to the staff and members of Garry Hall for their co-operation. PHYLLIS HUSTON. Pace Twenfu

DOUGLAS HALL 1946-1947 DOUGLAS Hall has been very fortunate this year in having Mary Mathers, Head Girl, among its members. As a result of a little extra effort on the part of the girls, Douglas was able to Win the house- points for the fall to Christmas term. An activity enthusiastically undertaken and enjoyed by all the girls was the supplying of Christmas gifts to the Point Douglas Mission. As the time for the Lilac Tea approaches, Douglas Hall hopes to be able to live up to the fine record achieved by the girls of Douglas last fall. Our sports captain, Lois Huggard, and secre- tary, Julie Harris, deserve special credit for their efficient handling of the sports schedules and housepoint lists. The co-operative spirit of both the girls and the staff members, Mrs, Little and Miss McKay, of Douglas, have combined to make this a year which I will remember with pleasure. PEGGY DOLMAGE.

'h 1' ex 'BS - I Q NELSON HALL 1946-1947 ' 1946-1947 has proved to be a very successful year for Nelson Hall. We were certainly favored in having such a capable sports captain as Gwen Alsip, who with untiring effort coached us and got the teams out to practices. Our in- dustrious secretary, June Baker, has shown us what an efficient person she is and she managed to put us in second place for housepoints at Christmas and first at Easter. We Worked hard for these housepoints and we hope to receive the shield at Graduation. Our staff, Miss Martin and Mrs. Low, have been an asset in helping to put over our housepoint campaigns. Our treasurer, Barb Champ, managed the funds for our Christmas hamper very nicely. Our ham- per, I feel, was a good example of the co-opera- tion of Nelson. We delivered a large well equipped hamper, which included both food and clothing. Shortly after Christmas we received a very nice letter from our family expressing their appreciation. Our house was very fortunate in having a large number of girls who were interested in sports. Our basketball team was victorious and before Christmas we succeeded in winning the Inter-House Basketball cup. Bowling proved to be an interesting sport and we were lucky to win the Inter-House Bowling trophy also. The volleyball tournament was a long drawn out seige. Our team was really tops and our enthusiastic girls carried of the Volleyball cup before Easter. A great deal of credit goes to these teams who played so staunchly for Nelson. I would like to thank the staff and girls of my house for their co-operation and loyalty, in helping to make my year as prefect of Nelson Hall a pleasure and a memorable experience. MARY MCINTOSH.
