Players were again checked for bruises, sprained ankles, displaced fingers and the game rdas then allovred to continue to see who gets the second point. as Don and Herb Layman challenged all Horseshoes had e fair followlng C c f f e n daff e;nGei:aFoor, Bill Campbell, D;:, r J o o d o f l k , A s h b y C u r t l s iakers. from Lime usually Riopel supplied the gpositlon Dr. Millern Dr. Frye, and grudge games after thelr had Keener also Carl Marvln Scott and t,o time.

The badminton court htas usualiy busy on Sunclay afternoons during first semester but seemed to be largely neglecteri except for the younger set whlch used iE daily second termi Table tennis had much appeal for some, as Carl Keener and Gene Foor had thetr usual warlike gares and Bill csmpbell, Sandy colbert, Mark Gares, suzie Daggy, Nelson Trinkle and sally Dei'lott found Ehis a fascinating sport (?) at night. Hiklng was enjoyed by all who rook time Eo go on sunday afternoon ventures usually lead by Mrs. Gersh and Don simmons. rmpromptu walks were taken by indivlduals from t,ime to tlme and now that we have such well placed signs by Dr. Burns, r predict that this actlvity will appeal to more people nexL year and get a greater following. lt was found by experlnentation Ehat the one way for people b get their walking exercise was to allow them to bring their pet dogs to the station. swlmming at }it. Lake was enJoyed by all who coul.d sneak away from classes ln the afternoon. Page Davis and Jlm Roth seemed to find more excuses to go than anyone else because Jlm could do research on "something or otheril over there better. Our station swlmming pool proved defectlve and would not hold enough water for the'rPolar bear" fol.lowing it received in prevlous years. A11 events mentioned above, however, vrere overshadowed by the stellar Fourth of July acElvitles. The second annual North versus South games and ninth annual North-South volley ball game proved more exclting and after belng postponed two days because of 'rwet field" condiEions, the events were held on JuIy 6th. rt all started wlth the coveEed "Fire event,rt. The south had many schemes such as fire extingulshers and water filled plastic bags as secret $reapons tn neerby coEtages. Thts lnformaticn was gathered by a i'lorthern spy sittlng lnslde empty Latng Center wlth the window open and the shades partial.ly pulled. The North was inCeed puzzled at the time although Gladys tras sltting innocently about 30 feet from the Northrs fire with anextingulsher placed under the blanket and others were strategically located in the nearby rock garden. The umpire (Dr. Riopel) got so many complalnts from bystanders, hor.rever' that he outlawed all this and as hls suspicions grew he even tried the waEer hoses before the ala:m bell rar'g, This uncovered the last, secret l^teaPonof the North and from there things had to be "fair and square". As the bell sounded, there was much scurrytng from all corner6 of the lar,r: as everyone manned hls post. The hoses rdere stretched ln seconds and the:e ltas an avtesomepause by all as Ehey waited Eo see water gush out the nozzLe" Eut Alas, as the smoke cleared, it was decided that the south side hrr.dwon and had thereby jumped lnto an early lead. In the tug of war, the South won the toss-up again and for the seconcl ;'ear in a row, chose to pull downhill on the lawn. After much straining, the North gave an inch, then a little more, and finally a 1ot, and the liouth had won second straight evenE. The gallant northern ladies, hor.rever, came t,o the rescue and won the ferninine tug of war. Thls, along with the Ritter famllyrs commandof the childrenrs croquet round, with Meg first, i.athy second, and Jlmrny third, placed the teams closer together. The South went on to wln the horseshoe contes! as Cr:rtls Woodfotk took first and Gene Focr and Dr. Riopel captured 2nd and 3rd for the North. In thE badnlnto;r, Df. Daggy proved master of the court for the South, while Frank Ferrier also of the SoUth took secondl and Herb Layman eciged for the In table tennis, Gene Foor took flrst third place for the North. North, while Don Adams and Dr. D"ggy took 2nd and 3rd for the Sout'ht In contest, Ashby "Windyil Coffendaffer set a ttre water nelon seed splttlng (probably world) at 3l feet for the South, whlle Ginny hlrightnew record nour of the North took second wlth 28 feet, 6 inches, and Nelson Trinkle took third place for the South. As the points were tallled at the dinner table, it was discovered if all volley ball games were won by the Federal forces, the North could Ehere was much apprehenslon anci win. As the final events started, still cheerlng by both sides as the ladies lined up thelr teams on the courL. The Southern belles got off to a large early lead and although the ncrththey could not overcome the handiern girls put up a hard fought struggle, the Northrs hopes of victory. wiEh along to defeat went, they down cap, and This did not dampen the menrs gamer however, and after a fiercely and many, many good fought battle wiEh both sides having good rallies, trounced in themselves soundly found team the Southern menrs vollies, other losses, all least, after both games played and the NorEh had, at gained a great moral victory. It, was indeed a great, day for the SouEh, with much shouting and bell Hopes were high and everyone from the South n'3s extremely jublrlnging. But as night settled over the mountain, calmness was regained, lant. friendships $rere renewed and everyone found himself c.:mpletely exhar:sted. But memorles of thls day w111 live forever by thcse who pari.icipated and the trophles won will grow in value over the years.
