Deirdre Muirhead-Centre . Played in the "A" team final. She tried hard, but lacked experience. Her attacking play was good , but her defence needs improvement . She combined well with the centre court. Janice Johi1ston-Defence Goa ler. Has been a steady play- er throughout the season. She has worked hard to improve her defence, but her jumping ability must be improved; also her attacking needs to be faster. Patricia Stephenson-Defence Assistant Goaler. Has work- ed in well with the other defences. Her ball handling is accurate , but she must be quicker to intercept . She also has been a steady player througout the season. ~K . V. Kay Valle-Defence Wing. Kay has kept up a high standard of play throughout the year. Her defence work is good, but her attacking movements must be faster . She has been a very satisfactory captain. -S.R.

Our congratulations go to Jocelyn Beak on winning the " Telegraph" Blue for Basketball . TENNIS NOTES Th is year has been a successful one for the tennis teams. Both the "A" and "B" teams succeeded in reaching the final, after having played some hard matches, but here the "A" team was beaten by Clayfield Colleqe. The "B" team, however, won their final match, also ag~inst Clayfield College, thus keeping the pennant for another year . Sickness and injuries have prevented some members of the team from playing in all matches this year. The Under 15 Matches have again been played, and -our team which played well on most occasions, won three matches out of five. These have served as good practice for the younger girls . The Form Matches have been completed, VIA defeat- ing IVD in the final. In conclusion, we would like to thank Mr. Moon for his valuable coaching and advice, and Miss Rooney for her encouragement throughout the year. Our thanks also go to the scorers and the girls who helped with the afternoon tea. -M.F. B Team-
