was staged that resulted in the
scoring Of 10 runs. Hooppole add
ed one in their half with the final

The volleyball game brought an
altogether different result. Gene

lack of form, and Hooppole ran
away with three. straight games.

scores, but the final contest was
closely contested and kept a large
