OUR most important hockey game finally came off on November 14 at Kent Place.
With a feeling of trepidation our team practiced a short time on the field, which
was new to some of us and then the game began. The Kent Place Team was good—how good we did not. sad to say, realize until it was all over. Kent Place were the victors with a score of 8-0. Afterwards they cordially invited us up to the house
for refreshments, which so cheered us that we caught ourselves thinking of the grand game we would have next year, possibly a victory for us. J. L., ’33.
The game with Miss Fine's school was one of the high lights of the Fall term. In spite of the cold da^^ both sides of the field were lined with spectators, among whom
were Miss Hartridge, Miss Mapelsden, Miss Fine, and a number of Princeton people.
The game itself was very satisfactory. There was such magnificent teamwork on both sides that neither was able to score until the last part of the first half. At the end of the half the score was 1-1, and so it remained. When the last cheers had died away, we led the visitors in to tea, all in the grij) of that excited feeling that one feels after a thrilling game. K. T., '34.
The last game of the season was played on the home field against the Plainfield women's team. When we heard the first carload of players arrive, we hurried into our uniforms and ran out to the field for some last-minute practice. The game prom­
ised to be an exceptionally good one as we were at our best, and the Plainfield team it was rumored, had some excellent players. Miss Stinson, our Physical Ed teacher, and Miss Sindall, one of our Latin teachers, had allied themselves to the Plainfield team,
thus providing added interest.
Each team played hard, and we had difficulties in conquering them, but, thanks to Judy, who made two goals, and Janet, who kept the opposite team from getting past lier at the goal, we did win. This game was a splendid conclusion of our hockey season.

Last year, instead of having a banquet, we voted to have a depression dance. Miss Walker was the guest of honor. By nine o'clock the auditorium was filled with multi­ colored figures dancing to the music of Guy Lombardo on the radio. During the course of the evening prizes were awarded for dancing contests, and the athletic awards were made. After we had enjoyed delicious refreshments, we left for home.

THE HORSE SHOW
The inevitable crowd turned out last year to watch the annual horse show. To the great delight of the spectators it proved to be a warm day; but alas for the poor
competitors ! Their collars wilted, the horses were
the new English tweeds were rather warm. Mr. Mellick, Miss Stevens of Far Hills, and Mrs. Gates of Plainfield, acted as judges. The horsemanship classes were won bv Carolyn Waring, riding “Lady Bug,” in the 13 year class; Genic Craven, riding “Cock Robin,” in the 16 year class; and Mabel Howell, riding “Carnation,” in the 18 year class.
