The Old Tradition — Women's Hockey Losses

The Old Tradition

Women's Hockey Losses

We observe that the Women's Hockey team in keeping up the old tradotoin—up to dale it has not won a match. Nevertheless the team showed marked improvement on Saturday when it succeeded in getting, for the first time this season, some semblance of combination.

The backs worked well but most of them lack pace and cannot [unclear: hit] hard enough. Janet Bogle's tackling on Saturday was especially good.

The forward line was strengthened by the inclusion of Geraldine Kean, playing her first clinic this season. The forwards need more attack and hard hitting in the circle. As yet they do not see enough of the ball.

The team has good individual players hat is handicapped by the lack of filed practice and the disadvantage of having no coach. The service of anyone willing to act as coach for a short time during the week would be greatly appreciated. Volunteers are asked to see Betty Rider or leave a note in the letter rack.

Victoria [unclear: House's] representatives for the match [unclear: against] Weir House next Saturday morning starting at 10 o'clock, are;—[unclear: Jill] Smith (goal): Janet Bogle, Winifred Tow good. (full-backs): Barbara McPhall, Nancy Splers, [unclear: Lila] Marshall (halves): Betty Fraser, Mary Frankishm, Betty Rider, Sybil Green, Betty Berryman (forwards).
