Some wore those old chin straps with a mouth piece on the end, And then they wore some elbow guards so their elbows cou ld n't bend They carried long and narrow sticks with black tape wrapped arou nd. These sticks were used for shooting pucks, this fact I later found. The girls would dress in all their garb and get out on the ice, And l guess I really must admit they did look rather nice. There were thirteen girls on this great team, an unlucky number yes, And I figured when they played a game, they'd be in one big mess. But oh l had to eat my words, when l first saw them play, As they organized their hockey skills in a very special way. ' , , '43 5 T ,, K 1 Z Q ,m.,. l'i Q 1. 573'

l watched one girl skate up the ice, she had a letter Beav skates around with so much speed, she must the captain be. But who is wearing that big A with goggles on her eyes, lt's Kaye the team's assistant, and a vet - that's no surprise. Now Margo really is a whiz at handling puck and stick, Especially when they've got a game - she lays it on real thick. And Carolyn stands in goalie net, girls hit her with the puck, They rush on her with such great speed, l'm su re that I would du l've not yet said a word about defensemen that they've got, And of the credit giv'n a team, defense deserve a lot. l'd like to tell you first of Barb, along with Chips of course, For when they dump opponent teams, they sure have lots of force. Midge and Jan, the two Phys. Eds., you always see together, Midge defense and Jan upfront, they're never in a dither. 128 Ck ' KI t ' X ,,.., XQQ f f txt twigs Q 6 M X s S. x W 1' A Q x z Ss' Ann needs no stick to shoot the puck, she kicks it with her skate While Mary Lou another wing, digs in with all her weight. We're up to George who plays the wing, she is on Margo's line, With yet another Mary Lou who's always there on time. Mary is a goalie too, a girl with lots of spirit, And that's the team for '69, for these girls now Let's hear itl But wait a sec, l'm not quite done, I see a spot of blue, A whistle in a woman's hand, whatever does she do? She skates a bit and blows a bit then calls the girls around Of course it's Mrs. Peterson - better coach could not be found. That's all l want to say about these girls who play so well, So come on out to their next game - Iet's really hear you yell.
