Dorothy Gould clearing the hurdles Women's Athletics ALL interclass and inter-organization sports for women are handled by the Women's Athletic Association. Its members typify the new spirit of Athletic womanhood which has found its place in the modern American College. Awards are given by the Association to women earning points in the various sports. During the past year women's sports have reached the peak of enthusiasm. The aquisi- tion of new members, sponsoring new activities and organizations have been the main objectives of the association this past season. HOCKEY Hockey is one of the major sports of woman's athletics. A team is composed of eleven players whose positions correspond somewhat to those of a football team. Virginia Avenall, manager, carried on a very successful hockey season with approximately eighty girls out for the teams. On account of perverse weather conditions the season was somewhat drawn out, the final game not being played until late in January. However, interest still ran high until the very end when honors were finally shared by the Junior- Senior and Frosh teams. SWIMMING Swimming stock took an appreciable impetus after the hot weather blazed forth early in May. With a peak load of swimmers in the pool nearly every hour of the day, W.A.A. realized the possibility of a splendid swim season. So with the co-operation of the Department, a swimming demonstration is planned to be held on May 25th, from 7-9 in the evening. Beginners classes will give an exhibition of beginners work which includes introduction to the water, float, breaking and back stroke. The intermediates will demonstrate the more advanced work of perfected stroke, diving and sculling. The Life Saving classes will give an exhibition of the various holds, breaks, and carries which constitute part of the American Red Cross life saving test. Thelma Shadue has arranged for an interesting series of contests including, races, diving and stunts which are open to all women. Points will be awarded to teams or individuals winning these events.
