Harry Mc- Intyre. the Arts team has risen to great heights. For instance they achieved first series honors. los- ing the second series by a few points to the En- gineers. Then. in the first game of the play-offs for the inter-faculty championship, the Blue and XVhite succeeded in tying the team that won the Western Canada Inter-collegiate Championship. In- deed they lost the title, but, not until the final whistle blew. Watcla them next year! .4 OR the first time in four years the Arts Co-ed's Basketball team came within an ace of beating their age-old rivals, the M.A.C. Unfortunately, just as victory was within their grasp. the Aggies uncorked one of their aggressive attacks. to mark up another and final win by a seven point margin. All of which it too bad: but then, Arts have the basis of a real team and next year. with the help of the Almighty, and a little more practice, Varsity Arts is going to produce an unbeatable quintette, or elsel Page Eighty

Elliott G. Yullcr M, Schofield HIS year, the track team, with the aid of a few dark horses in the farm of freshmen, was pulled out of the lowly position it has occupied for some years, to stand fourth. The point winners, Pfelfer, Purdy and Hay, cer- tainly showed their ability, the latter two being selccted for the University Track team. With these men and recruits from the prospective freshman class we look forward to another successful year. A U HIS year the Arts Co-eds again dominated at the Inter-faculty meet by carry- ing off the championship with a total of thirty- two points and breaking the only two co-ed records. Gertrude Fuller tied for the individual champion- ship, winning the 60-yard sprint, placing third in the 100 yards and winning the 220 to lower the previous record by one and one-fifth seconds. Mary Cooperband won the baseball throw, breaking the record by more than thirty feet, Another premier performer was Evelyn Blankstein, who placed sec- ond in each of the three weight events. As a proof of their ability on track and field four of the girls made positions on the U.M.S.U. team and were by no means in the background. With plenty of excellent material on hand the arts co-eds are looking forward to annexing another championship next year. Page Sevenly-nine

Adams HE prospects for Arts Soccer at the beginning of the season seemed far from bright. Due to the loss of Manitoba College grounds and to the complete breakup of last year's team, the work of organization was unusually diflicult. So instead of entering two weak teams as usual, We concentrated upon building up a strong Junior team. - A summary of the season's play is as follows: a draw with United: a win over Meds: a loss to Ag- gie, in a game which should have been played in night-gowns: and last a win over St. Johns. We ended the season in second place, one point down. The outlook for next season is good, most of this year's players will be back, and a splendid bunch they are. May they receive adequate support from the faculty. and decent Write-ups in The Manito- ban. S THE basketball season draws to a close, the Arts Juniors may proudly look back upon a year of achievement. which. even if it has not brought back to Arts the mythi- cal intcr-faculty trophy, has at least seen the for- mation of a real team. Made up as it is largely of freshman material, it is decidedly not too-much to hope that next year it will measure up to all ad- vance notices ancl show itself for the fast, clean, and heady team that it is.
