Jan Ki!qour-has played consistently throughout the year. She has a good serve and_ backhand, but needs to hit her volley, not push it. Her forehand could be Improved . Marion Hawcrofl-;-has play~d consistently and both her game and tempera- ment have Improved smce last yea"r. She p lays a-ggressively volleys web]] and has a good backhand. Her serve and forehand are' inclined to e errahc. Jennifer Turner-the new member to the teem, has played well. She has a consistent serve but her grounds trokes could be improved. She lacks confidence in herself. G.W. Ge raldine Walden- Geraldine hc:s been a satisfactory captain. Her ground- strokes are consistent, but her serve is erratic. Her moverr:,ents on the court are sometimes slow and she a lso tends to hesi ta te .

TENNIS NOTES. This year has been a most successful one for the tennis teams, both 1eams having won all matches . The "B" team has won the premiership for 1he fourth year in succession. The fine achievement of completing the s eason without losing a set was reached by Jan Kilgour and Marion Hawcroft. Non-competitive matches against St. Aidan's, Salisbury High School, and ihe Old Girls on School Day provided va"luable practice for the teams . The Under 15 teams won matches against St. Aidan's, Somerville House , and St. Margaret's. The School Championships and the Interform matches being p layed a t present indica•te that the standard of the ga·me is good. We would like to tha nk Mr. Moon for his coaching which has been most beneficial to us , end Mrs. Melzer for he r encouragement throughout the - year. We also wish to thank the girls who scored for the matches and who prepared the afternoon Ieos.
