S. in girls' sports. Under the guidance of Miss Leese, an extensive program has been carried on in the fields of badminton, ten- nis, soft ball, volley ball, ping pong, and basketball. In basketball, the Girls' Varsity sponsored teams, each girl having her own team. This contest was won by the Ink Spots, who incidently also cap- tured the volley ball crown. The team was led to victory by ,loanne Bittner. The volleyball tourna- ment was held within the classes first, and were held between the classes later. These contests were more popular than those of ping pong, badminton, tennis, and soft ball, probably because of the larger number of girls who were able to participate on the various teams. Later in the year, ping pong tournaments were started in the classes between individuals. In the gym classes were taught dances of the nations, as well as the modern social waltz. At the end of the year, tennis courts were laid out in the gymnasium, and instructions were given in the rules of the game. All in all, the girls' extensive sports program held many experiences which will not be soon for- gotten. 91 gow , .xdcfiuifiea ' THIS SCHOOL term marked the second year of intra-mural sports in which classes and homerooms competed with each other. This year the fields open for competition included: basketball, volley ball, badminton, and ping pong. The intra-mural basketball games held the lime- light in the field of intra-mural sports. Each home- room had its respective players and followers who attended their own games and supported teams as well as could be expected. All contestants tried their best to place at the top of the list, but of course, only one team could win. These champions were from room 118, the team being composed of Paul Krause, William Kramer, Robert Kern, Basil Lan- phier, Clayton Hollinger, Donald Hofier, Harry Keim, and Warren Himmelberger. In a similar manner the volley ball games were played. In the latter part of February a volley ball team composed of homeroom players, journeyed to York and was defeated in contest by a team repre- senting York High School. The fast-action game, ping pong, proved its popularity among advocates of this little white ball sport. Each of the competitors was assigned to play in either Bracket One or Bracket Two. In a similar manner the badminton tournament was con- ducted. This year has been a jamboree for boys' sports. Mr. Spangler and his Boys' Intra-mural Club de- serve much credit for undertaking such a worthy extra-curricula project that served as a means of strengthening and developing the bodies and minds of the boys in Lebanon High School.
