RalkeiUU Basketball, t h e international game, is known and played in many lands. Here in the United States it is the most popular sport, judging by participation and gate receipts. That most persons find it to be the most satisfying of sports is also shown by the large num- ber of Wilson women who played basketball this year. The program for each class was divided into two periods. The first of these was given over to prac- tice, with the beginners, in one part of the gym, struggling with rules and basic techniques while the experienced players, in another part of the gym, were per- fecting their skill under the expert coaching of Miss Ruth Berg. Experts and novices were even- ly divided into teams to play dur- ing the second period. Team games, managed by Ruth Fogel, were characterized by exhilarat- ing rivalry. SEATED: Eleanor Nesby, Lorraine Palmer, Lope Theodores, B. Templer, Irene Churan, lane Flinn. STANDING: Lucy Hubbard, Leona Wolf, Alfreda Ponder, Miss Ruth Berg, Ruth Fogel, manager. QoH Every Tuesday afternoon, dur ing fair weather, the W. A. A. golfers go to Jackson Park to put techniques mastered in winter season classes into actual prac- tice.

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.

Softball classes hove enjoyed increasing popularity at Wilson. Each semester more and more girls come out to play this popular American game. Regardless of her skill as a player, each girl de- rives enjoyment from the game and feels a sense of sportsman- ship. Furthermore, the girls learn to appreciate the game more as played by others, since they un- derstand it better. Coached by Miss Estelle An- gler, the girls first learn the rules of the game, and then practice the techniques of the various posi- tions — catcher, pitcher, first-, sec- ond-, and third-baseman, short- stop, right field, left field, center field, and umpire. During the second part of the season the girls were divided into teams which played one another for class championships. Team games were managed by Donna Frasemer. Then, at the end of the season, an all-star team was chosen from the girls in all the classes. This team played in inter-collegiate competition. FIRST ROW: Aldonna Snekutis, Teresa Caruso. Irene Churran, Eleanor Nesby, Leona Wolf. Adelaine Goodman, Lope Theodores. SECOND ROW: Alma lochera, Elaine Anderson, Jane Flinn. e4iC44Uf The girls ' Fencing Club meets every Friday afternoon and is coached by Miss Estelle Angier.
