INTER-ROOM VOLLEYBALL This year volleyball competition was very :een and hotly contested. Room 34, Grade XI hamps, edeged out Rooms 36 and 33, Grade X hamps, in one of the closest struggles yet wit- lessed. At half time the well-organized Grade X earn was only one point behind the XI room. In he second half, however, the XI’s, ably sup- lorted by Anne (one-man-team) Turchin and ible spiker Ilene Patson, redeemed themselves md soon gained a comfortable margin which hey maintained throughout the remainder of he game. The Junior team, however, led ably by Daria Sawchuk and Marguerite Mason this year, vill next year undoubtedly be one of the for- nidable teams on the floor INTER-ROOM VOLLEYBALL Left to right—Anne Yaffe, Julia Yaremchuk, Ester Gonor.

INTER-ROOM BASKETBALL This year’s Room 17, Grade XII basket belles swept aside all opposition with graceful ease to capture the Inter-Room basketball champion¬ ship—much to the chagrin of the valiant Room 12 defenders. Room 17’s “Triple Threat,” con¬ sisting of Eleanor Richelieu, Shirley Elhattom and Lily Karlinsky, proved too powerful a squad for the Juniors, who nevertheless staged a strong struggle. Starring for the Juniors were Madia Baydack and Elsie Kulbaba.

SPEED SKATING St. John’s Tech was fortunate this year in having four speed skaters of no mean reputs as their representatives at the inter-high speed skating meet. Starter Noreen Mclnnes gave the team a flying lead (we’re speaking literally, not figuratively). Second man Barbara Sisler kept up the fast pace set by her forerunner. Millie Nelson, as third skater, gained many yards for the school, and last man, Margaret McClellan, did not let the Tech team down. In the last lap Margaret and Daniel were racing neck on neck in what appeared to be a tie finish, but in several powerful strides Margaret pulled up ahead of Daniel to win the city championship by inches. Our thanks go to Miss E. Gauer who was the guiding light behind this silver blades championship. GIRLS ' INTER-HIGH SPEED SKATING TEAM Left to right—Margaret McClellan, Noreen Mclnnes. Elsie Herdy.

JUNIOR GIRLS ' BASKETBALL PHYLLIS GELLER DARIA SAWCHUK MARGARET McCLELLAN The Triple Threat of the aforementioned was perhaps the most effective high scor¬ ing combination on the Junior floor. Captain Margaret McClellan, our fast¬ flying speed skater, was considered the best all-around player of the series. ELSIE KULBABA NELLIE SPACK A very powerful defensive team. MILLIE NELSON Our champion subster was also very deft at sinking baskets. NORMA ROSS Norma’s speed makes her a very valu¬ able player in basketball. DOREEN McGILL Doreen is another speed demon, which makes her frequent breakaways very effective and her baskets were plentiful. HILDA PLATNER SHIRLEY COLYER This tricky combination has taken its share of the honors on the forward half of the floor. RUTH GILMAN An able defender of the St. John’s basket. JOSEPHINE PIASECKI Another center who accounts for no few points on the St. John’s score sheet. MARY SLUSARENKO One of our steadiest defensive players. SHIRLEY SPEGAL A stalwart player throughout. MARY CHERWANEK A steady player throughout. WALTER BOSKAWICH STAN SMITH Our two beloved coaches who have given so much of their time and energy to the Junior team. Page Seventy
