It is not often, in the world of sports, that such a young group dares to} challenge older girls in a single sport, and it is ab- solutely unique to find them making the challenge cover such a round of sports. The enterprising lower division, however, has shown already that} they will prove no easy mark in} tennis, badminton, and volleyball. Whether their self-confidence will | prove to be based on reason or rashness will be answered by to- morrows’ final score. The program runs as follows: Marching of the Blue Drill Team at 12:45 artmd of the Gold Drill Team at 1:00. Tennis will begin at 1:15 and volleyball and badmin- ton at 1:20. Two short races anda relay will be held at 1:30 and the softball game will start immedi- ately thereafter. The final sport of the day, and the one where competiton will reach its peak, is basketball at 2:20. The Marching Teams, which are student organized and drilled will. pass before three judges: Mrs. Delio Cobo, Mrs. C. B. Harvey, and Sister Superior Delphine Marie.
