A captain was elected for each class. These captains were to interest the girls in their classes in the game and get them out for practice. After several weeks of work, six regular players and one substitute were selected from each class. After this a great deal of enthusiasm was shown in the game, and each team came out for practice regularly, so as to be ready for the inter-class tournament, which took place during the first part of December. The first game was played between the seniors and intermediates, with the inter- mediates carrying away the highest score. In the game between the freshmen and juniors, the juniors won. Wlieim the final 'game of this hard fought tournament was over, the intermediates proved to be the victors. Olga Fruechte was captain of the intermediates, Doris Axelson, of the seniors, Martha Baumhoefner, of the juniors, and Pansy Drake, of the freshmen. I Deck tennis was also played. This is a new game, played in somewhat the same way as volley ball. A ring, made of rubber, is tossed across the net, and the players try to catch it before it touches the floor. If it is caught, it must be tossed back to 'the other side with the same hand, otherwise the opposing team gets it. If it touches the floor, the other side scores. -SADIE I-IOVEN.

Swimming ECAUSE of a new point system established for the swimming classes this year, considerable more interest has been shown in this activity. The Girls' Athletic Association chose a committee of three girls, Audrey Holmberg, Martha Fruechte, and Helen Gray to work out this system, which provides a specified number of points for strokes, dives, and stunts, making it possible for every girl in the class to compete. This committee also organized a swimming club for girls. To be eligible for membership in this club one must belong to the Girls' Athletic Association and must have earned a given number of swimming points. The Beginners class is working on the elementary principles of good swimming. After a term of instruction in swimming one is expected to be able to swim the length of the pool, which is twenty yards. The Advanced class is working on life saving and diving. Swimming tests are given at intervals by the instructor, Miss Kaercher, both in the advanced and the beginners' classes. Those passing these tests receive emblems. For the advanced test the emblem is a large decorative circle containing the letters, S. A. U. M. The beginners' emblem is a decorative fish. Both are to be worn on the bathing suits. Each year a swimming race of forty yards is one of the events of Field Meet. Audrey Holmberg represented the intermediatesg Helen Gray, the seniors, Virginia Parish, the juniors, and Thelma Martin, the freshmen. Page Om' Hnmlrrvl Tu.'1'11ly-one
