.fs W . I El le ll TENNIS Thus far, definite tennis teams have not been organized, but we are looking forward to this final step next year. Although we cannot boast of a fixed team, we are proud to say that the court is scheduled for every free hour and that all the girls are intensely interested in the game. As our Athletic Association is yet young. tennis is one sport that is working its way to the front and will probably come to the top in the Associatioifs progress next year. From early morn till the evening study bell rings, matches are being played, and we feel we have some future cham- pions among our girls. The fact that the eonrt was re-worked this year and is in first class condition helps to make the playing a source of pleasure. BASEBALL I.ast year the baseball team was represented by the Ifreshman team, but this year, teams and captains were elected and organized in every class. The diamond has as yet been somewhat deserted, but try outs are to be played sometime this w eek. XYe will leave it to next year's annualists to say whether 1927 baseball teams were a success or not. CROQUET Several games of croquet have been featured this Spring, A Croquet tournament is being planned, for a later date, in which awards are to be granted. XYith a goal such as this in mind, croquet will probably rise another noteh in its way to success. lfired with the thought of this tournament, the girls are gradually becoming more interested and more games are being played.
