TOUCH SEASON FOR VOLLEYBELLES Despite the skilful guidance of Miss Ritchie the senior team was doomed to defeat in the inter-high volleyball series. Out of the six gome schedule the Senior net nymphs won two and lost four. Highlight of the schedule was the match against Kelvin. They engaged a classy Kelvin squad in a close hard fought exhibition, only to be nosed out by four points. Daniel Mac and Riverbend were their conquests, while Kelvin, Lord Selkirk, Isaac Newton and Gordon Bell were the defeats. Though not champions, this year ' s Senior team was tops, putting on a spirited display in each game. Back Row: Alice Suther¬ land, Nora Silverberg, Pat Yost, Marlene Gersh- man, Eileen Harding, Marilyn Bregman. Seated: Janet Sutherland, Clara Baryluk, Rhea Katz, Al Ross (coach), Lil Sedun, Carole Kanchier, Janice Lutz. Missing: Gerry Kalian (captain), Bill Hutton (coach). Back Row: Sheila Hutton, Doreen Masters, L i I Sedun, Stephie Tarnow- ski, Pat Yost, Joyce Clark, Helen Souter. Front Row: Rita Lesper- ance, Rhea Katz, Alice Sutherland, Janet Suther¬ land. Failing to reach the zenith by one point, the seniors cheer¬ fully relinquished the Inter-High Championship to Isaac Newton. The seniors participated in ten games, winning six and losing four. The initial game against Gordon Bell found St. John ' s at the short end of a 15-14 count with Lil Sedun scoring twelve of the fourteen points. Daniel was the next opponent and the Dannies bowed out to a tune of 39-12. The Kelvin team de¬ feated the seniors in a rough game, the score 18-15. They went on to win the next four games against Balmoral Hall, Isaac Newton, Gordon Bell, and once again Balmoral Hall. In all these games, Lil Sedun was the top scorer and hit the basket mercilessly. Gerry Kalian was another top performer. The next and deciding game against Isaac Newton proved to be a heart breaker to lose. With seconds to go, the score being tied, Newton on a foul shot winning the game by a score of 21-20. St. John ' s had to be satisfied with second place when they nosed a Kelvin quintette by two points, final score being 21-19. The top performers on the team were Lil Sedun, who captured the league ' s high scorer title with one hundred and twenty- four points, an average of 12.4 points per game; Eileen Harding, the star wing; Gerry Kalian, Captain of the team, and Nora Silverberg, the stellar centre. ,The girls would like to express their deepest appreciation to their coaches, Bill Hutton and Al Ross, for the fine work they did in coaching the team. 79
