SPORTS Sports activities at St. Mark’s have been very difficult to manage because of the small number of students and the difficulty in schedul- ing. However, a varied gym program was carried on which included swimming, skating, touch football and elementary gymnastics, among other things. Soccer and tennis teams competed with other high schools, and a basketball team was entered in Region Six competition for the first time. A combined team from Rowland Hall and St. Mark’s competed in the annual Knudsen Cup, which involved many Utah schools. The teams provided an opportunity for boys interested in athletics, and also proved to be a valuable unifying force among the students. Page thirty-three

This year the sport was almost dropped, but now boasts the largest participation it has ever had. Nothing was done to organize a team until the games were at hand, and the first game was played with no previous practices. Mostly because of this, the team failed to win a game the first round. In the return games they beat South and tied all others. This spring, a junior varsity was added, and coach John Loomis anticipates a much stronger spring season. Gunnar Roald, who has played soccer all his life, shows his stuff at soccer practice. Page thirty-four
