WOMEN'S ATHLETICS THE purpose of the Women's Athletic Association is "to promote athletics, to create a love of sports, and to foster the ideal of good sportsmanship." During the five years of its existence the organization has done much to create a general interest in women's sports on "The Hill" and to raise the athletic standards. Regular meetings are held each month. The activities of the association are directed by a Student Board under the guidance of the Directors of Women's Physical Education, Miss Parker and Miss Todd. The association, in co-operation with the Physical Educa- tion Department, has planned intra-mural competition in all seasonal sports. Tcurna- ments are run to determine the championship teams. After each season an honorary varsity team is selected from the members of the class teams. The point system is used as a basis for regulating the distribution of awards. Points are given to a girl who participates in team games. The awards in the order in which they are presented are: Class numerals, school monogram, letter "M," and the blazer, which is the highest honor anyone may receive. Those who receive blazers are selected by a committee of faculty members who take into consideration the student's spirit, service and scholarship, as well as her qualification for the necessary points. * 89
