Miss McGrew re- cently’ conceived the idea of such an organization, and she already has been in touch with some of the ot whether they would look favorably the response she has been getting is her institutions with inquiries as to upen a proposition of the kind, and more then gratifying.

Considering the proposition as a_financial one, I see nothing to stand in the way. Most of the girls' colleges should have no Aiffcalty financing eftorts to build up Sthletics and there is no reason Wiy part of the money girls give to help wthletics in co-educational institu- tions should not be used to further some of their own activities.

Miss McGrew formerly was a student in the department of arts and sciences of George Washington and will grad- uate from the law school of that uni- versity the coming scholastic year. | Bhe has done some remarkably good work as coach of.the girls' hasket ball team and was a star player herself, but it has been and is as an organizer of girls' activities that she has ac- complished most for George Wash- ington.

The youngster from San Fran- cisco stood on the middle of the back |line and frequently made five or six returns without moving more than two or three steps. Miss Bayard opened her play against Mrs. Bundy with a splendid exhibition of aggressiveness and speedy driving which appeared to catch the former champion unprepared, and it was not until ‘weH in the middle of the Initial set that Mrs. Bundy began to respond drive fer drive with her opponent. From that point the match devel- oped jnto a test of stamina and con- trol, in which the former champion brought into play the benefits of her long years of experience on the courts and outstayed and outgamed the youngster aéross the net. * Trophy for Women.
