The Girls' Athletic Association was formerly called the Peptomaniacs, but changed to its present title in the fall of 1935. Its purpose is to provide an outlet for any athletic ambitions the girls may possess. The instruction is not compulsory for all girls in high school, but instead has a membership of approximately seventy girls. Tennis, kittenball, and baseball have been the sports of main interest during the fall and spring season, and basketball and volleyball during the winter months. It has been necessary to divide the girls into two groups, those from the country and those from town thus giving each one a chance to participate. Practices for the country girls have been from 3 :1 5 to 4 :oo and those for town girls in the evening. The officers for the year 19301937 are: President, Gloria Christensong Vice- President, Gertrude Morrisson, Secretary, Shirley Cornwall. Miss johnson was coach the first half of the year and Miss Klimeck the last half. Page 35
