GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Seniors (JTIT HE season just concluded has been a busy one for the Inter-school ill League. Practices have been frequent and regular since early fall, and by Christmas the lucky few who were to represent Victoria had been tentatively selected. The Seniors played several practice games with Nor¬ mal and with the boys’ Bantam team. In the league games the girls won against every team except McDougall, Babe Belanger making that team too hard to beat. However, the Commercial ites were hard put to make a victory against the teamwork of Helen Glockzin and Florence Brent. Doris Johnson, Nora Paterson and Margaret MacMillan were another set that would put dismay into the hearts of any team wanting a big point lead. Anna Terley, Kay Swallow, and Margaret Moore with a cool philosophical reaction to either victory or defeat played a game in keeping with that of the rest of the team. Juniors The Juniors looked like sure winners this year. Mollie Kalancha. with the faculty of being everywhere at once, received first class support from Maxine McMillan and Kay Gimblett. “Gussy” Gee, a forward, could flick the ball in from any angle. Dot Murray was quick, her shooting accurate, and her actions at centre splendid. Louise Pearson and Alice Cross were regarded as valuable by the visiting teams—they were hard to find. Much to the surprise of all basketball fans, they lost the city cham¬ pionship to Westmount by a mere two points. House League Although the Inter-school games receive more publicity, the House League games are just as important, from one point of v iew, because they give every girl in the school a chance to play. Last fall a basketball association was organized, consisting of a repre¬ sentative from each room, with the purpose of securing a team from each room. A schedule was arranged and games were played until the end of January, Seniors and Juniors playing alternately. Competition was keen, very few games being postponed or defaulted. This fact reflects great credit on those who took charge of the games and coached the different teams. The winner in the Senior section was Room 9, their line-up being: Gussy Gee, Nora Paterson, Helen Nalanchuk, Dot Howey, Marion Rendall, Kay Gimblett, Tryna Newhouse, Jerry Holingsworth. Room 21 galloped to victory in the Junior section without a single defeat. It looks as though this room is to furnish material for future Vic teams. Their line-up was: Babe Graham, Emma Williamson, Bonnie Philips, Dorothy Bonsfield, Edith Fisk, Phyllis Perry.

SENIOR BASKETBALL Cameron Richardson, Frank Richard. Clifford Willetts, Jim Bowland, Gordon Forbes, Hugh Pritchard, Peter Pullishy, Ernest Falkenberg, Mr. L. Smith. SENIOR BASKETBALL Continued Vernon “Dauntless” David, left forward—He is a recruit from the Edmonton Normal team. A hard player and a very effective check. Hugh “Peerless” Pritchard, utility defense—An old-timer at Vic. but on the senior for the first time. A very steady player. Cameron “Buddy” Richardson, right guard—Has been a familiar sight around Victoria for several years. He is the captain of his team and the baby of his family. THE ATHLETIC SOCIAL Those who took part in the fall sports were guests at a party held in the school on December 13. After a violin solo by Vera Pike and a piano solo by Kathleen Gimblett, the cups were presented. Frank Richard, Ernie Falkenberg, and Bob Bolander received cups for winning in their respective divisions on the track. As the Victoria track team had the highest number of points for the city, they again won the Marshall-Wells cup. Also the Junior Rugby team won the city championship, for which they received a cup. Dancing and refreshments concluded the evening’s program.
