A. At the beginning of the year, the Y. W. C. A. continued its organi- zation under the capable sponsorship of Miss Ferna Wrestler. Officers elected for the year, 1946-47, were: president, Wilma Steiner; vice- president, Laverne McGahan ; secretary, Mary Mattix ; and treasurer, Evelyn Harris. At the end of the first semester, however, Y. W. lost two of its most valuable members ; Miss Wrestler, who left to teach at Wichita University, and Wilma Steiner, who moved to Salina; Laverne McGahan automatically became president, and a new vice-president, Betty Jo Locke, was elected. Other cabinet members were: music chairman, Barbara Bowyer ; program chairman, Betty Jo Locke, first semester ; Pat Brunson, second semester; publicity chairman and student council representative, Martha Anglemeyer; and devotional chairman, JoAnn Heap. Miss Prussing, one of our new teachers this semester, became our sponsor, and Y. W. C. A. wishes to extend its appreciation. As several activities, the Y. W. C. A. sponsored a Christmas Carol- ing party for the college with a chili feed following, and also sent a Y. W. C. A. representative to the Parsons convention. And so ends another year for Y. W. C. A. 30

flom ( tate ana (yfaipes Ic Ljiizziii Cjicwl Typical was the scene of Tuesday evening in room 1-1 when the editors — Laird Crocker, Mary Mattix, Glen Allen, and Marcella Jack — rushed out into the halls of Juco, trying - to find the reporters who were supposed to have their news items ready on the preceding day. Yes, many a brain was wracked by the editors and their staff in an effort (cheerfully put forth) to give, in the Grizzly Growls, interest to every taste, including editorials, gossip, poems, quotations, and bulletins of school activities. Through the guidance of Mr. Nixon, and the efforts of every member of the staff, Juco has been given something of which we are truly proud — the Grizzly Growls. In return for the hours of work spent getting the paper out, the Journalism Club has had some swell parties. This, with seeing the Grizzly Growls go to press each week, gave great satisfaction to all. Seated, left to right: Barbara Bowyer, Betty Jo Locke, Mary Margaret Noble, Mar- cella Jack, Phyllis O ' Brien, Mary Mattix, Cordelia Dennis, Darlene Burns, and Adeline Leben. Standing: Mr. Nixon, Glen Allen, Paul O ' Neal, Dona Maddux, Bill Hartnett, Beth DeLong, Joanne Oir, Laird Crocker, and James McKinney. 2!)

felted Patties . . o »»»ii The YWCA got off to a good start with their Get-Acquainted party on September 17. All the girls had a good time. Everyone enjoyed meeting many old and new friends at the clever- ly arranged Get-Acquainted party on October 17. Janice Bell was crowned football queen at the social highlight of the football season in the form of a gala Coronation Ball after the El Dorado-Hutchinson game on October 24. A very colorful dance was held November 22, to celebrate the Thanksgiving holidays in the right spirit. Christmas good will prevailed December 16, when the YWCA sponsored a caroling party for all Juco students. Everyone enjoyed a chili feed later. Juco alumnae of the Red Pepper Club and their dates attended the lovely formal Christmas dance held December 14. A Juco dance was held January 24 after the El Dorado-Dodge City game. Miss Wrestler was presented with a fountain pen by the members of the student body. Many Juco students attended the dance held after the El Dorado High-Newton High game, January 31.

There were many different kinds of entertainment, and everyone agreed that this should happen more often. As the yearbook goes to press, arrangements are still to be made for the Junior College Spring Prom. 31
