.la I BASKETBALL 1948 - 49 A TMS Year has been a good year for basket- ball, under our coach, Miss Gursz, the teams have made a go-od showing. Because the season was extremely late we played each school only once. The seniors won two out of three games. On February 25th Kenora came up and played us. Their senior and junior teams played our intermediate and seniors. Riverbend won both games. The girls on all the teams have shown a real interest and have come to practice faithfully throughout the season each girl had a wonder- ful idea of good sportsmanship and stuck to it very well.

'A' 'A' THE HALLOWE'EN PARTY On Friday afternoon, Oct. 30th, all the girls from grade -one to six came in costume to a Hallowe'en party in the school gym. First there was a grand parade and all the girls, and the boy, marched down the hall into all the class- rooms so that everyone might see these wonder- ful pirates, fairies, witches, gypsies, goblins and a host of others, Carold Hayman Cgypsyb and Roberta Robertson Qblind many won prizes Ior their costumes. Then several games were played. Finally ice cream, cakes, cookies and candies were served. Balloons, had been hoisted to the rafters and, with a pull of the string, 'these cascaded down-unfortunately one bunch of balloons stuck and caused some excitement. The party-goers left shortly after four o'c1ock. LILAC TEA The lilac tea of 1949 was held on May 218, 1948. Tea was served in the dining-room. Each house had a corner of the room. There was one long table at the end -of the room at which a former member of each house poured tea. Flowers were beautifully arranged on the table and it looked truly beautiful. Th-e proceeds .of a sale of work done by the girls went towards the United Church Fresh Air Camp. A picture made of shells was railed. Outside there was the fish-pond run by Grade Nine, and an ice cream stand. The younger ones got a thrill from these. The weather was very bright and warm all day. The girls, stafif, and weather all contribut-ed to make the lilac tea a great success. DAPHNE WHITE. Page Thirty ' A J 1 s I 5 4.5 . ...T

,3 A, C1 INTERSCHOOL VOLLEYBALL This year Riverbend entered into the Inter- High School Volleyball League. At the begin- ning of the year, many of the girls were un- familiar with the game, but under the careful coaching of Miss Grusz, the teams were soon lined up, Teams from all over the city were played and all the games showed teamwork and sportsmanship from all the players. It is hoped that an even greater interest will be taken in the game next year. at BOWLING The bowling this year was very successful. Every Monday after four about twenty-five of the girls went down to the Y.M.C.A. where they enjoyed two games of bowling. There were quite a few girls who had never bowled much before, and I think that they found bowl- ing reguarl-y improved their game. Our interhouse bowling was played off. on the second Saturday in December. Each house had five girls on a team. Clem McNern, Linda Christie, Annie Lou Ormiston and Linda Wright bowled for York. Betty Ann Runner, Ruth Anderson, Cara Joy Hugh-es, Pat Stone and Carole Wallick, made up Garry's team. The Douglas team had Pat Sparling, Donna Young, Roberta Scrase, Maureen Nord and Claire Anderson. Nelson's team consisted of Joan Mitchell, Barbara Drybrough, Claire Tribble, Patsy Sigurdson and Muriel McCullagh. Garry won the cup, but the other teams were close behind. I am sure all the girls agree that it was fun, even if their team didn't come out on top. CLAIRE ANDERSON. 'I' AIice's Adventures in WonderIand By Lewis Carroll Arranged by V. A.
