HE
recognition of the value of exercise in fresh air and
of team-play for women has accomplished a great deal
toward placing this wholesome activity in the group of
American team sports and justifying its place in the
physical education program at Nebraska.
Hockey is a strenuous
game, demanding co-ordination and skill in the use of
the hockey stick to manipulate a ball while running at
full speed. However, with practice and with proper
coaching, our women have come up to these demands of
the sport, and such technique as was displayed in the
class tournament last fall was encouraging to those
interested in the advancement of the sport. All the
women were coached on various forms of defense and
attack, team play, and speed, but the junior class
used this knowledge to a better advantage and won the
tournament; the sophomore class worked well together,
taking Second place.
Marie Hermanek was
the manager, and Miss Wagner and Miss Wheeler coached
this sport.
