BLUE AND WHITE I ' M9 45 CONGRATULATIONS GIRLS’ SWIMMING TEAM! Walkerville is very proud of its Girls ' Swimming Team, which this year won both the Junior and Senior Championships for the city. To quote the Star: In girls ' competition. Walkerville’s fair lassies scored a clean sweep of the title honours.” The seniors earned 25 points and the juniors scored 25 points. Frances Burns earned the title of senior girls ' indi¬ vidual champion by placing first in two races to win HI points. Another Walkervillc senior. Janet Barnby, won an individual championship, placing fourth with 5 points. We are also very proud of Janet Caza who won the junior girls ' individual championship by placing first in two races and winning 10 points. In the senior girls ' events, Carol Davies was second by a very close score in diving, Janet Barnby came third in style swimming and won the 40-yard back stroke, Frances Burns won the 40-yard free style, and the 40- yard breast stroke, and the Walkervillc senior relay team, consisting of Janet Barnby, Marion Brough, Frances Burns and Carol Davies, won first place easily. It certainly was a thrill for all W.C.I. supporters to see the girls doing so well. In the junior girls ' competitions, Eileen Peterson won the diving exhibition, Beverly Mothcrsill came third in the style swimming, Janet Caza won the 40-yard free style, and the 40-vard breast stroke. Katherine Morris was second in the 40-yard hack stroke, the Grade 9 relay, consisting of Lily Madded, Elizabeth Stewart, Maurine Assef and Katherine Scott, placed second and the Grade HI relay team, made up of June Augustine, Anne Whelpton, Barbara Whitehead and Audrey Boyd, in the 80-yard relay race, broke a record to bring more honours to Walkervillc. All these champions worked very hard to cop these honours and their coaches, Miss Saunders and Mrs. Todgham, are very proud of them. As Miss Saunders said when the trophies were presented the next day. “If there had been more trophies, we would have won them too.” VOLLEYBALL TEAM W.O.S.S.A. CHAMPS! Our senior volleyball team certainly brought fame to W.C.I. this year. The girls not only sailed right through and heat all the Windsor teams, but went right ahead to Beal Tech in London and beat the London Central and Stratford teams, gaining renown for themselves by winning the W.O.S.S.A. Championship. Congratulations girls! The Champs were: Jackie Damashe (captain), Poppy Mouzas, Betty Marsh, Jean Chalmers, Irene Spakowski. June Palmer. Joan Love, F.vangeline Parker. Donna Chapman, Alice Sargent, Frances Burns, Dorothy Lawton, and Sally Darns. Manager of the team was Anne Vermeer. It should he mentioned also that Margaret Martin was the very competent referee for all the Windsor games. The team really appreciated the help of Miss Saunders and the teachers who drove them to London. BOWLING The girls elected Peggy Stewart to look after bowling. Peggy, being a very good bowler herself, takes an inter¬ est in this sport and lias proved by keeping the girls well-informed of their weekly scores and averages, that she is a very capable leader. This year there were 32 bowlers making up 8 teams. Each girl bowled 20 games over a period of HI weeks. Our high bowler of the season was Lee Smith with an average of 155. Peggy Stewart was runner-up with an average of 140. The winner of the high single and high double was Sigrid Larson. The winning team was made up of Barbara Miller (captain), Helen Bell.
