Jlflfefza VVith the close of the basketball season and the advent of spring, one could find balls flying back and forth over nets, balls hit out into the kittenball diamond, and ping-pong and badminton rackets in full swing. Badminton, which was an entirely new game to most of the girls, is gaining in popularity. It has a healthv inHuence on girls outside of classes as well. Simultane- ously with badminton came ping pong, which was taught in the classes at the same time. Tournaments in these two sports are held in the spring. The greatest group interest is shown in kittenball. It is conducted in connection with these other spring activi- ties in the physical education classes. Other activities included on the program for the year are: Gymnastic exercises, Stunts and tumbling, Hiking, and Simple games such as dodge ball, hit-pin ball and vari ous relays.

9 0144611 .4 Miss Sonja Manson has directed the women's athletics during the past two years. Miss Manson, a senior, was granted a fellowship in 1936 and attended the University of XVisconsin's summer session in Physical Education. VVhile training in physical education at SFC has been centered to a great extent on highly organized activ- ities such as basketball, baseball, volleyball and soccer, interest is becoming more and more apparent in games of individual skill such as tennis, badminton and ping pong. Since one's daily routine today does not provide vig- orous activity, it is essential that there be conscious plan- ning for it, and that is one task of physical education. The classes opened in the fall with soccer and tennis forming the major sports for the first six weeks' session. After having participated in vigorous soccer games for six weeks the girls enjoyed playing volleyball which does not require as much physical prowess in perform- ance. During the winter months two-court basketball became the predominating and most favored activity among the classes. Near the close of the season class teams were selected and an inter-class tournament was held. The freshman girls emerged victorious by defeating the senior girls, 27-22. Regular VVAA basketball practice was held on Tues- day and Thursday evenings. Mercedes Hubbard, Osage, Iowa, head of this sport, was in charge of selecting a VVAA team chosen from the girls who reported for these practices. Two games were played with the VVashing- ton high school senior team. The SFC coeds were de- feated in the first game on the high school court. The second game on the home court was won by a score of 27-18.
