The Spring sports season s tar t -ed last week w i t h an exception-al ly large turnout . Archery is w e l l under way and an award w i l l be given out at the end of the season for the best archer.

The Softball team wil l be cho-sen in a few weeks and many girls are working very hard right now to make the team. Several games have already been sched-uled.

The ping pong tournament started a few weeks ago and the first round has already been p lay -ed off, whi le the badminton t o u r -nament w i i l begin shortly.

A l l of the girls who made two teams during the past year are eligible to attend the sports ban-quet coming up soon. So if you haven't made two sports as yet, let's get busy, girls, because there is not much time left.
