The Sports Association OFFICERS OF SPORTS ASSOCIATION Cleft to rightlz Ignacia Garcia secretary, Patsy O'Shea, chairman of intramurals Maribel Perez, vice-president, Zoila Garza, president, LaRuth Patton, treasurer The Sports Association is one of the most spirited associations on campus. Spirit, good fellowship, and loyalty are predominant characteristics of the members. In the early part of the year, a volleyball game, Faculty versus Students, was scheduled. The faculty won. Drs. Greenburg and Burke were captain and co-captains, respec- tively, for the faculty team, Becky Smith and Ignacia Garcia served in like capacities for the student team. In both the volleyball tournament and basketball tournament the sophomores carried off the laurels, but freshmen are determined that they will be the winners next year. One of the most interesting events of the calendar was the Youth Amateur Hour, held on February 6. The first prize, an all-expense-paid trip to New York, with the opportunity of appearing on the Ted Mack Original I-Iour, was donated by Miss Doris Aceli Trevino, a physical education graduate of I.W.C., who operates her own dancing studio, and who has taught dancing on campus for the past four years. A high-school junior from Mount Erin was the lucky winner. Master of Ceremonies was Mr. Hal Atkins, Production Manager of KRIS-TV, Corpus Christi, and the judges were Mrs. Alvin Abelman, Mrs. Preston Dial, and Mrs. Dan Davis. Another event of great interest was the annual Horse Show, held on March 7, in the Brackenridge Park Show Bing. Pauline Finney, sophomore, won the first place trophy in the pair class, and the blue ribbon in advanced equitation. Mrs. Richard L. Brandt, director of physical and health education, sponsored two educational tours during the school year, the first to Carlsbad Caverns at Thanksgiving, and the second to Washington and New York, during the Easter vacation. Sisters M. Xaverius, chairman of the department, and Sister Mary Mark, instructor, accompanied the group to Carlsbad Caverns. As we go to press, preparations are in order for the riding class to appear in Fiesta Parade. They should bring home the blue ribbon.
