Lyons, Evelyn Goigegrain, and Helen Burger. It was through the efforts of these two teams in being present for their games without substitution that the seniors emerged victorious in the inter-class tourney.

Dozens of girls helped to put over the whole affair, among the chief June Boudinot, Priscilla Whitaker, Margaret Darr, Nadine Spealman, Julia Amster, Mollie Shapiro Jean Fisher, Milly Smit, Jane Laubach, Jane Schultz, Anne Fisher, Anne Lewis.

Miss Barbara Stellhorn, Visiting Here, Goes Out to Dinner With the K.D.D. Sorority
Most of the Kappa Delta Dammas – a crowd of close friends at high school last year – are away this year at college.
But last night all of those who are home from school for the holidays went out of town for dinner, and to catch up on the news from various campuses.
Miss Marilyn Miller and Miss Pat Halderman, both freshmen at Stephens College, were there. Miss Norma Martin, from Ohio University, Miss Eileen Dyke from Ohio State and Miss Nancy Limb of the College of Wooster, were in the crowd. And Miss Mary Ann Pontius, Miss Marylin Greene and Miss Norma Graber, all of Wooster, were other K.D.D.’s at the dinner.
Members missing from the crowd were Miss Sally Stark – who went to Hattiesburg, Mississippi, to be with her parents, Capt. and Mrs. Julius Stark, Camp Shelby – Miss Rachael Woodward and Miss Estella Graber. The club had as its guest Miss Barbara Stellhorn of Columbus, Marilyn’s houseguest.
