Girls' Athletic Association G. A. A. ACTIVITIES Something new in G.A.A.! We limited our membership to only those girls who were actually participating in sports or were interested actively! What an unusual type of organization we had then. The girls elamored for more sport daysl' during the week, and the zest with which they took up matters at hand!! We,re all interested in the unusual and our fathletic association has been different this year, different by having a smaller membership and unusual for having such a vital one. Honorary teams! Another new feature! Our prize athletes are now chosen and honored in their particular activity by their sports manager and Miss Andrews, the faculty sponsor. The old method of having varsity teams was discarded because we now have intermural competition only in accordance with the suggestions of the National W. A. A. Our fall sports schedule went into effect almost as fast as the girls could crowd sum- mer off of the calendar. The ping of tennis balls was soon heard frequently from the school court firmly endorsed by Miss Huff, who was ably aided by Sheila Sultan from the student body. The finals of the tennis tournament resulted in Marijane Brouillet defeating Sheila Sultan for the advanced Championship and Beryl Brown overcoming Louise Hi-nman for the intermediate championship. Our Hrst thrilling hockey encounter was staged at Washington Park where the girls played weekly. The Boarding Students versus the Day Students in a traditional ghme! W'hat a score! Two to one in favor of the Boarders. It was a close and thrilling game. Miss Andrews, with Marian Huff acting as student representative, chose the following girls for the honorary hockey team after the various games: center, Marian Huffg r. inner, Lillian Bachofeng l. inner, Marijane Brouilletg r. wing, Lois Atwoodg l. half, Ruth Gartnerg r. full, Mary Lou Wadeg l. full, Louise Hinmang goal guard, Caddie Mozier. Riding under Miss Cole at the Chicago Riding Academy they met twice a week and it was a thrilling day for Janet Klein, also sport manager, when she placed first in the riding exhibition for the second year in succession. She was awarded a silver cup, as well as having Mr. Cameron, owner of the stables, present her and Mary Plaisted-who was awarded second place-with some beautiful roses. Lillian Bachofen came third while Frances Louise Shipp was awarded the prize as being the girl who showed the most improvement during the year. 9014! on E .1'N2 .X I PSI! 1 5.-
