T. Bond Girls at New Trier High school who are interested in athletics have met to hear the details oi" the plans for the spring sports. Last week practice started. T·here is an unusually large attendance for both baseball and track this spring, and in the case of baseball, an absolute deadline had to be drawn for the "signing-up," which is quite unusual. Track is being conducted on an individual system. That is, a certain number of points are bein_g given for doi11g any of the events in a certain time, for a certain distance, etc., and teams will be probably picked from those girls having a certain number of points. Whether the meet will be held on the individual compet1tio_!l basis or by classes has not been ·definitely decided. Mr. Kirkwood's experience has taught him the value of efficient service.and courteous treatment to all. This policy will be strictly adhered to in his dealings with the people of the North Shore.
