    At the completion of the
Intramural competition in
volleyball, Mrs. Deidre Jago
had try-outs for the 1973
Women's Volleyball Team
which will compete with other
Penn State Campuses. The 1973
team members are Captain Barbara
Smith, Mary Frances Postupack,
Diane Acker, Peggy Bickel,
Patti Blust, Debbie Burgess,
Lori Hackmeister, Beth Moyle
Cindy Parsons, Sue Petrilla, Rita
Reck, Mary Tack, Gloria Wilder,
and Roseanne Ziminski. The
women are practicing every day
in order to be ready for their
November 10th tournament at
the York Campus of the Penn
State University.
In preparation for the
tournament, a few games have
been scheduled for the team.
On October 31st Mrs. Jago and her ,
team will travel to Scranton
to compete with that• Commo
nwealth Campus. The Schixykill
Campus will be at Highacres some
time before the tournament, and
Scranton will also take on the
women here. Although the
dates have not yet been set t please
keep them in mind and
come out and support us. Go
out to the athletic field and
cheer the girls on to victory!
On October 15th - the
Volleyball team scrimmaged a
powerful East Stroudsburg team
at the opponents' gym. In the
two matches that were played,
ESSC.won two games to PSU's one
game in each of the matches,
bringing the total number
of games won in the matches
to four for ESSC, and two for
'PSU. Mrs. Jago was pleased with
her team's abilities in their
first match against outside com
petition, and said that her team
performed well even though it was
the first time the women had
played indoors.
At this time, I would like
to take this opportunity to wish
Mrs. Jago and her team the
best of luck during their prac
tices and especially during their
_tournament at York.

in their first October game to
crush the Schuykill boys 5-2
on the latters' own ground.
The scheduled home game a
