W. ll. A. IHTHA-MUHAL AETIVITIES The Women's Athletic Association is for every girl in the school. A very successful form of government has been carried on by the executive council of the organization which is made up of managers of each sport and four officers. Almost any sport that a girl can wish for is offered through the W. A. A. lr is felt that the girls derive a great deal of pleasure and benefit from these activities. An enthusiastic group of girls started the fall semester engaging in the four major sports, hiking, rifling, tennis and archery. About thirty girls signed up for hiking. Many hikes were taken to places of local interest such as the orphanage, the fort, a greenhouse, and many other places. The climax of the season was a hot dog roast on the Lakeshore which was enjoyed by all. The leadership of Vera l-layden was a contributing factor to the success of the club. During the early fall weeks, the two tennis courts were filled with enthusiastic players. This sport is to be continued during the spring semester if the weather permits. Nearly forty girls are to receive credit toward their block 0 in this activity. l'lelen Tiefke and Margaret Cypher shared in the responsibility for the tennis club. Although rifling is one of the newest organizations among the women's activities, twenty girls have shown a great deal of interest in this sport. The girls shared the rifle range with the boys and practiced twice a week. Under the guidance of Lila Jarvis, many girls have proved to be very skillful in shooting. Archery has for several years past proved to be a very successful sport. The girls numbered thirty for this sport. Two girls who especially proved their skill in the archery tournament were Irene Nellenback and Joy Phillips. The girls play several hours a week and hope to continue this spring. During the season three girls journeyed to Syracuse to participate in a tournament with other schools. Esther King and Ruth Burns have shown their initiative in helping the girls. About fifty enthusiastic volleyball players started the winter season very successfully. Ada l.insler as manager helped the girls to organize into five teams. Twice a week practice and tournaments were held with the lnjuns finally winning. Everyone had a good time and they are looking forward to next year. Helen Smith, manager of basketball, called the girls together and found that over fifty girls proved to be interested in intramural basketball. Teams were organized and practices held twice a week for over a period of nine weeks. The tournament was finally won by the Twerps, captained by Margaret O'l'oole. Very good basketball has been played this year. Through the assistance of Virginia Lowery as manager, a Dancing Club has been organized again this year. Nearly sixty girls have shown their enjoyment in taking part. The girls have learned many new dances and an assembly program is planned for the future. l-lere's wishing them lots of luck. Due to the weather, the Winter-Sports group did not have as many gatherings as they had hoped for, but nevertheless had a very enjoyable season. The girls had a chance to participate in snow-shoeing, skiing, and skating. Although the Winter Car- nival had to be postponed many times, there is always another year. This has proved to be a grand sport to about twenty-five girls who have taken part in the activity with help of Ruth Alger as manager. Two new sports have been added to the schedule this year and both have aroused the interest of the girls. Margaret Owloole has helped to organize a bowling team and many girls have been going down town to bowl nights after school. It is hoped that this activity will be carried on next year on a larger scale. Baseball under the management of Genevieve Yates is being organized at the present time. ln the past this has proved to be a very successful sport with the girls and probably will be again this year. We wish to thank Mrs. Galbraith for the very complete program which she has given us this year and for all the good times which we have had. 44

BASEBALL ELDRED BARCLIFF . . Senior Manager MARIO CAPOTOSTO . . Junior Manager MAX ZlEl. .............. Coach Baseball this year reached the goal toward which we have been striving For many years. College teams comprise the opposition with the exception ol Cortland Normal, which team has proven itself to be the equal ol any college team in the state. Due to lack oF Finances, there are but Five games on the schedule. These include con- tests with Colgate, Clarkson, lthaca and a home and home series with our time-honored rivals, Cortland Normal. Although the team Faces this rather hard schedule, the outlook is bright due to the Fact that we have most of last year's team again. Pitchers George Pepper Martin and Ed Owens, catchers l-loward Gresens and Frank Jarvis, inFielders Bob Kirkpatrick, Pete Furnari and Joe Luczycki, outfielders Gerry VfoodruFF, Toby Mcpeak and Ed Schneider are on hand. Replacements For those lost by graduation will be Found in the Freshmen candidates and they will round out a high-class team. Last season, the team got oFF to a Fine start, winning two oF its First three games, but thereafter, it could not win. Jack Stets pitched Fine ball, against Oneonta Normal, gave them two hits and struck out'l3, winning 5-O. The next day, George Martin, pitching ace oF the '34 season, pitched the team to a 6-5 victory over the strong Hartwick College team. Although getting 'I4 hits to our 7, l-lartwick was able to score only in the First and eighth innings due to the Fine pitching and defensive work of the team as a whole. With so many veterans back, the team expects to make a much Finer showing this year. 45
