Senior Women's Swimming Team - Group Photo
Senior women's swimming team pose in swim suits by the [Qu'Appelle Hall] pool. Back row: Grace Hardy, Betty Moore, Marion Proctor and Mary Boyd; Front row: Mary Varey and Pat Willis.
Bio/Historical Note: The University of Saskatchewan’s first pool opened in 1916. Located in the basement of Qu'Appelle Hall, it was 18 feet wide, 45 feet long and around 8 feet deep with a spring board and changing rooms. Speed swimming, diving, water polo and recreational swimming soon became popular activities in the long Saskatchewan winters. The pool closed soon after the Physical Education pool opened in October 1964.
