Athletic News

In the fall, we began our athletics with outdoor basketball and we had many exciting games, but the best one of the season was the one between the Juniors and the Faculty. The Juniors were victorious but they had a pretty hard time trying to compete with the two faculty forwards, Miss Philp and Miss MacLean, who played a fast and snappy game. At the end of the season games, the Whites were victorious.

The next important event was the election of the athletic board, the results of which were as follows:

President—Betty Fairbank

Secretary—Elizabeth Bertelsen

Treasurer—Ann Waterman (later replaced by Betty Greist)

Green Captain—Theresa Turner White Captain—Barbara Welles.

The morning after the elections, the captains and the old girls went through the houses singing and tapping the new members of the teams. At chapel the two teams sat on different sides of the gym.

Every Monday during the fall term, we went on a picnic. Once we went to Look Park, once to the French King bridge, and, best of all, once to Sandy Beach. It was a warm sunny day and after our lunch, which consisted of roasted hot dogs, coffee, and apple pie, some of us played baseball on the beach. It was no end of fun and everyone seemed to have a grand time. The last Saturday in October we entertained the Stoneleigh-Prospect girls by playing basketball in the afternoon and participating in Hallowe'en stunts in the evening.

By the time the leaves had fallen and Old Man Winter was knocking at our door, we were well practiced in hockey. The cold weather increased, the snow fell and our plans for future hockey games were shattered. So far the Greens had carried off the honors in this sport.

The weekend after midyears was tile greatest of all the year,—the Fairlee Weekend! We regret that everyone was not able to join us at that time. We left Friday noon, accompanied by the Principals and Miss Wallis, and reached "Gardenside" at seven. Saturday morning we were skiing, tobogganing, sliding and snowshoeing. That night some Dartmouth boys came over for a dinner dance. Doctor Page gave us a delicious steak dinner, and we had our dance in the old rustic room. Sunday was spent both indoors and out, and Monday noon we left for home. How we hated to leave! And as we left we decided that there is no place like "Gardenside" for winter sports, and no man quite equal to "Doc" Page.

During the remaining cold months, we were indoors practising gymnastics, tap-dancing, and fencing. We worked hard preparing for the gym meet which was to take place on the last Saturday before Easter vacation. The thrilling day arrived and both teams were out to win. We were complimented by having four of our old girls, now students at Smith college, act as judges, and I assure you they were to be congratulated for their splendid

TERRACE TATLER

work. The Greens were victorious and Janet Birdsall (White) won first place, Helen Douglas (White) won second place, and Louise Killam (Green) won third place. Fine spirit was shown throughout the meet and everyone helped to make the meet a great success.

After spring vacation, the A. A. Board gave a party. Everyone was invited to go on a four-day cruise on the good ship S. S. Athleta. The Gym was decorated to resemble a ship's deck and six board members were dressed in sailor clothes. The evening was a great success, full of fun and frivolity.

Soon the warm weather brought on tennis, golf and baseball, but most important of all, May Day. We first crowned Betty Fairbank queen. Then followed many days of frantic rehearsals for the May Dances and the play, As You Like it. On Saturday, May nineteenth, the sun shone down brightly on our friends and parents gathered together to see this gala affair. The whole day was a great success.

The Christian Association

Shortly before Christmas vacation, Peggy Newton, President, and June Fraser, secretary of the Christian Association started what might be termed a drive for the securing of presents for the poor. The girls responded enthusiastically and many packages were wrapped and sent off. Under the direction of Peggy and June, we were very energetic during those brisk December days, preparing for the Christmas party, which we gave in the gym, for the children whose parents are connected with the school. After running wildly about, playing "Drop the handkerchief," and sprawling over the chairs in "Going to Jerusalem" (and I don't think we ever quite landed there) we listened to some very fine music played by an orchestra of small children. The party ended with a visit from Santa Greist, alias Santa Claus, who asked the children if they had been good, and, seeing their eager nods, handed them Christmas packages.

For some years, it has been a custom of the school to have, shortly before•Christmas, an old English banquet, attended by lords and ladies of the court. Lord Whitaker (with an extraordinary stomach) and Lady Bement sat at the head of the table, and were entertained by the Jester, by a very amusing play, and by Wassail-Carriers Dunham and Philp. Adjourning to the court itself, old Santa Greist gave his lords and ladies presents too, for they had been more than good all the year.

"It rained for forty days and forty nights"—only in this case it rainel posters on Scott walls. Such ones appeared as "Miss Wallis has a knack for rubdowns," and "Come to E. Sheafe and F. Paulsen Co. for sandwiches." What else could it be but Lent? We all worked hard making beds, coloring fingernails, curling hair, polishing silver and selling Eskimo pies. It was worth the trouble for we made about $90 for the support of Harry.
