Another sport of interest in W.C.I. is bowling. This particular sport has not been very successful in past seasons, but this year it has been revived by a very able leader. Many students take full advantage of this opportunity to show their skill. Miss Saunders, the instigator of bowling in Walkerville. is back at the school again. For this reason we expect success for the years to come. A game that is gaining attention here is hockey—yes. girls’ hockey. There is real enthusiasm shown for this sport, ami the girls outdo themselves to show the boys that they too can play this game. The league has only recently been star ¬ ed, but we hope that it will attract more girls, and develop better and better players. Badminton is what we term the Sat¬ urday game. Several students come to the school on Saturday to play. I have heard it reported that so far this year it has been quite a success. ( ' .iris’ Track 1945—For the first time in many years, our girls failed to take first place in the W.S.S.A. competition. The team bowed gallantly with a mere 28 points consisting of only one first. Sylvia Fedoruk broke her own record as usual. It’s quite a habit around here, you know. For interesting conversation why not ask Dorothea Harwood how she felt after running the 440 relay. However, we do hope the girls will be back on the winning streak for this spring’s W.O.S. S.A. Meet. If you drop in some Tuesday or Thurs¬ day night at the pool, you’ll see the girls getting ready for the Swimming Meet which will be held sometime in April. They are practising in earnest and hope to walk off with all possible honours. VVe had a good showing at the meet last year and hope to have an even better one this year. Paie Seventy-One

BLUE AND WHITE VOLLEYBALL CHAMPIONS Take a good look at them. These are the girls who swept through the city league without being handed a single de¬ feat. There were times when they left the enemy far behind and had to slow down. I imagine that being captained by Hetty Scorgie had a lot to do with their victories and eventual triumph. I really don’t think that there was any one par¬ ticular player who outshone the others for all the girls were working for the welfare of the team. They were hoping to go out and conquer bigger battles in the W.O.S.S.A. but volleyball was not a VV.O.S.S.A. sport during the past year; maybe we will have an opportunity to enter next year. Across we behold the 1 liter-form champs. Don’t think that they didn ' t work hard for this coveted position be¬ cause every battle that they fought look¬ ed to them to be their last. There was a great deal of interest shown in this sport during the past year and we hope to be able to keep it an enjoyable one for fu¬ ture athletes. (Continued from Page 68) Bowling — Barbara Lees. Here ' s a young lady who is doing wonders with a very temperamental job. She’s so enthus¬ iastic about everything she does that we know she is the right person for it. Badminton —Ann Wilson. Need I say more? I think that Ann has been just about everything on the Athletic Society and yet here she is doing something new. Don’t worry; she knows what it’s all about. Track -Margaret Moray. Marg. really burns up the track when she gets going. Could be that’s why she was chosen for this particular sport. We expect to see her flash bv at any minute. 9 1 ID GIRLS’ INTERFORM BASKETBALL CHAMPS BACK ROW: Mary Edwards, Helen Happy, Betty Davidson. FRONT ROW: Nicky Lavis, Lila Totten, Joan Reid. Athletic Awards—In order to stimulate interest in athletics, the girls’ system of awards is based on a point system. A large “W” is awarded to a girl who earns 25 points or more on the year’s activities. Those with 15 to 25 points are awarded small “W’s”. When a girl has earned enough awards, she receives an athletic pin. while 5 large letters entitles the holder to a gold ring. Last year’s large Y” winners were Ann Wilson, Sylvia Fedoruk, Dorothea Harwood, and Diana I’ilipchuk. A recent winner of the ring is Kav Baird, one of the best athletes to graduate from this school.
