Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1927-03-24


4 and workouts have begun on
the track and in the tank
with plans under way for bowling ana
tennis to be inaugurated shortly.
Ruth Greenwood has been chosen
manager of track and announces that
formal practice on the cinderpath will
begin last week. Aspirants to track
and field laurels already have begun
to test their speed and skill in the
gymnasium, but no outdoor practice
has been held yet.
Plans for the Spring track meet
have been outlined by the manager,
who. states that no girl will be al
lowed to compete in more than three
events this season. Two of these may
be running. The third must be field
event. All girls who try out for the
track squad will be required first to
pass a physical examination, accord
ing to Miss Greenwood.
Sixty-three girls have reported for
swimming within the past two weeks
and are preparing for a meet to be
held on May Is in the new Y. w. c. A.
pool on Seventeenth and X streets.
Julia Denning is manager of this
sport. Judith Steele, Claudia Kyle,
Louise Cooke and Margaret Moreland
are assistants.
Myrtle Crouch was selected assist
ant manager of tennis. 1t is a little
early to judge of the court material
yet, but two of the strongest players
from the 1925 team, Frances Walker
and Phoebe Moorhead, still are in
school and probably will turn out, in
addition to Louise Omwake, Leah Cate
and others who figured prominently in
last years contests.
Plans are being made for a bowling
tournament between the various sorori-
ties of the school, according to Frances
Walker, recently elected manager of
the pin spillers.
HOIton Arms fair basketers finished
their season with q decisive triumph
yesterday over the Eastman School
sextet, rolling up a 40-to-15 count on
the Epiphany gymnasium floor.
Gaining an early lead, the winners
rOmped through the contest, with VIC
tory practically assured at the close
of the half. They exhibited more speed
than their opponents and greater ac-
curacy in passing. Eastman's team
was not displaying the brand of bas-
ket ball of which it has shown itself
TO be capable in the past, due partly,
no doubt, to the fact that Holton kept
it on the defensive throughout. Pass
ing was ragged on the part of the
Massachusetts avenue aggregation,
and some little difficulty was expert
enced in finding the basket.
Eleanor Colahan was the heavy
scorer Of the contest, registering 81
points for the winners. Alice Worth
ington accounted for the rest and
proved valuable in feeding the ball to
Miss Colahan. Elizabeth Breckenridge
consistently earned the tip-off at cen
ter. Anne Carter Greene and Patsy
Joyes alternated at side center, with
Frances Duke, Jane Wallis, Mary
Lewis Hall and Jessie Rollins dividing
time in the back field Miss Duke and
Miss Hall were the starting combina.
