Annex Awards Athletes

Radcliffe's Athletic Association handed out awards yesterday to 26 members for excelling in field hockey, lacrosse, and softball. Fifteen Radcliffe letters were distributed for top ranking in skill at the individual sports.

The surprise of the afternoon came when the organization presented Miss Florence Gerrish, house mother of Cabot Hall, with an "R" for skill in spectating. Miss Gerrish also has held the annual jacks tournament championship for two years.

Nina Emerson

During the meeting, club president Nina Emerson '50 outlined a revised point system for the association, which will enable the members to earn awards for fewer hours of activities. The new form will allow five points for each voluntary hour of participation, including club sports. Ten points will be given for honorable mention in a sport, 20 for a numeral, and 30 for an "R." Seven hundred fifty points are still required to win a 'Cliffe blazer and 500 for a junior award.
