Criticism of the Team JOCELYN ILIFF, goaler, played well in all matches. Her jumping is good and her goaling in the final was excellent. Co-operation with her team members improved during the season. JIL MALOUF , assistant goaler, was a steady and reliable member of the team. Her attack play is sound, but a little .slow. PAMELA NAPIER , attack wing, played well throughout . the season. Both her attack and defence games have Im- proved since last season. Her movements are quick and her ·catching is sound. MARGARET ALLEN, centre , has successfully linked up defence and attack players. Her jumping is good and her centre passes well controlled. LOIS MURPHY, defence wing, began the season with a high standard of play. Although her co-operation is ~ound, her jumping and speed on .the court require more practice. AUDREY MORWOOD, assistant defence, played a steady game in all matches. Her defence play is reliable and her jumping is good . L.J.A

LESLEY ANDERSON, defence . In her position as cap- tain of the team, Lesley has kept a steady control of passing during all matches . Positional play is sound but she is some- times slow to intercept . M.W.R. Results of l·nter-school Basketball Matches-"A" and "B" Teams B.G.G.S. v. State High School, won by B.G.G.S. B.G.G.S. v.

ATHLETICS We commenced our athletics training this year full of h igh hope that the ranks of our new girls would disclose talent of the Marjorie Jackson calibre , and as this was their first venture into the realm of lnter-·school Athletics , we heartily congratulate the younger team on winning the Junior Cup. Our senior team also did well to become the runners up to Somerville House, who won both Senior and Aggregate Cups with a margin of two points-excitement and suspense were evident everywhere as the teams fought for points to main - tain or gain the lead . Although we did not win the sports several new records were set by our teams . We ask Mrs . Rorke to accept our sincere thanks for her splendid coaching. The I nter ~ form sports. held on Monday, 31st July, attracted a large number of parents and friends and resulted in a victory for Vth making them the winners of Miss Molli- son's Cup; IVD took second place. We are grateful to Mr. Piggott for the loan of the B.G.S. oval and express our thanks. This year marked the first year in which a prize was presented by Mrs . Rorke for the " best all round girl" and we congratulate Shirley Rooney on being the winner. The presentation was made by Miss Lilley . J.R.
