Baseball was the sport of early fall. Eurhythmies including marching, folk-dancing and tap-dancing made up the class work for the next six weeks. The basketball season began the second week in December, and ended with the tournament in April. Social events of the year started the first week of school with a picnic at the pageant grounds. The Mother and Daughter Tea was held at the Presbyterian church basement, October 1st. At this meeting, awards earned were presented and new G. A. A. members were welcomed into the organization by a candle light ceremony. G. A. A. girls were selected to attend Play Day at Scottsbluff. October 2nd. and on October 9th, G. A. A. girls of Bayard High invited G. A. A. girls from fourteen towns to be their guests at a Play Day. In February our G. A. A. mother, Mrs. Louie, surprised us by giving a lovely St. Valentine’s party after school. The Play Day at Sidney. April 23rd, was one at which many new friendships were formed. Awards were presented at a special convocation the last of the year. G. A. A. motto “Good losers and modest winners,” has become a slogan for all sports in which we participate. We are looking forward to another successful G. A. A. year, and hope more girls will have an opportunity to join us.
