The tournaments were both the round robin and elimination type. The manager for the fall semes- ter was Anna Gordon; Florence Kazmiersczak was the manager for the spring semester. For the fall sports season Miss Estelle Angier was coach; during the winter sports season Miss Augusta Swawite was coach; and for the spring season Miss Ruth Berg took over coaching activities.

I Included in the outdoor sports program are horseback riding, hik- ing, and bicycle riding. Horseback riding, managed by Shirley Selby, and coached by Miss Estelle Angier, takes place in Chicago ' s parks, in Cook County forest preserves, and along the Midway. Hiking, managed by Leona Wolf, and coached by Miss Ruth Berg, is participated in every week, weather permitting. The hikers have become acquainted with the city parks, the county forest preserves, and also have learned to cook in the open. These ambitious women hikers also took several overnight trips. Some of these trips were taken along with the bikers. Perhaps the most notable affair was a hike to the Promontory at 55th Street, ending with a steak fry. The bike riders, supervised by Marilyn Weiner, and coached by Miss Angier, have taken short day- trips in addition to their trips with the hikers. SEATED: Lorraine Marks, Barbara Brunjes, Lope Theodores. STANDING: Leona Wolf, manager; Alma Jachera, Miss Ruth Berg, coach; Evelyn Eylonder; Aldona Snekutis; Dean or Nesby. In spite of its early meeting hour — eight o ' clock on Friday morning — badminton, sponsored by Miss Estelle Angier, proved to be a popular game. Badminton was one of the sports on the winter sports calendar. The first part of the year found some players gaining preliminary instruction and on appreciation of the game while the more ad- vanced players practiced, improv- ing their skill. The girls then ar- ranged a series of singles and doubles tournaments and made a practical application of what they had learned. These team games were managed by Emily Weicke until she transferred to another college; then Evelyn Nordgren was appointed as her successor. A coeducational singles elimina- tion tournament, won by Elaine Radio, closed the successful sea- son of 1940. SEATED: Evelyn Nordgren, manager; Irene Churan. STANDING: Leona Wolf, Lucy Hubbard, Glecena May, Judy Car lson, Elaine Radic, Hannah May Dalzell, Lope Theodores, Alfredo Pander.

Mode ut SboHce Charm, grace, and poise char- acterize every member of the modern dance class. When the girls achieve body control plus the sufficient techniques, they begin working on original compositions and the works of great dancers. Any one who is familiar with modern dancing appreciates the achievement of the classes. Miss Augusta Swawite is the instructor for modern dancing.

During both the fall and spring semesters, they practiced every Tuesday afternoon at a nearby bowling alley. They were usually accompanied by the men bowlers of Wilson, with whom there exists a friendly rivalry. In- struction was given in both tech- niques and etiquette. From among the regular bowl- ers, teams were selected to play Chicago Teachers College, Herzl, and Wright, and an intercollegiate tournament was held. Much of the success of the bowl- ing program was due to the ex- cellent work of Barbara Brunjes, bowling manager. Miss Estelle Angler is coach of the sport.
