The "I" Women

The "I" Women, twelve in number, represent a group who have done outstanding work in W.A.A. To earn an "I" sweater is the secret ambition of every member of W.A.A. Earning eight hundred points, four hundred of which have been received from teams on major sports, makes a W.A.A. member eligible for this group. This sounds like a very large number at first, but in reality, when one considers the many ways in which points may be earned, it is not an unattainable goal for any ambitious young woman. Keeping a health chart, hiking, volleyball, baseball, basketball, rifle, winter sports, tennis, horseshoes, horseback riding, clock golf, and swimming are some of the sports which afford opportunity for winning points. One hundred points are given to each member of a first major sports team, and fifty points are given members of second teams. Some women have found it so fascinating to go out for sports that after their number of points has exceeded the required number for an ' I" sweater, they begin working for a higher award. Eighteen hundred points are required for the "I" blanket. Eva Skinner received her blanket this year. The "I" women are: Linn Cowgill, Joan Harris, Bess Louise Hogg, Lillian Hejtmanek, Dorothy Janssen, Lorna McCain, Eva Skinner, Ora Spoor, Marjorie Stone, Rhoda Swayne, Helen Thornhill, and Grace Warren.
