M y Lou Varian Trudy Baird Joan Kaeser President V'rtc-Prvsliflf-'nl Sr-vrclnry Scarlet Skirts Have you ever noticed, just before a game, several red and white outfits passing in the hall? By now you probably know those girls are either juniors or seniors and belong to the Scarlet Skirts. This is the pep organization of our school which is open to all juniors and seniors who really promote school spirit. Highlighting their calendar was the annual t'Sweethearts Ball held February ll. The theme Sweethearts was spelled out in sparkling letters across the curtains in the gym, and the walls were decorated with hearts and cupids. The co-chairmen for this affair were Mary Lou Varian and Marcia Eagleson. The girls had several activities during the year which included wearing their red and white before a game, making red and white pom-poms for the Boise-Nampa game, and ushering and passing out programs at the games. lt was the duty of the Scarlet Skirts to decorate the goal posts for every football game. The exchange teas were again held this year with Nampa and Caldwell girls' pep clubs. Qnly members with a certain number of points could attend teas at these towns. When the girls have earned 650 points, they can receive a Scarlet Skirts medal. Scarlet Skirt members decorate for their annual Sweethearts' Ball 22
