CHEERLEADING The Cheerleaders were greatly improved this year. After choosing the squad which consisted of Joy Wiley as head cheerleader, Albertha Witham, Marilyn Tuttle, Marion Pease, Norene Holmes, Shirley Fol- som, Barbara DeMerrit. and Shirlie Wells as regular cheerleaders and Lorraine DeBi’tts and Virginia Wood as substitutes, we started working on new uniforms. We had a food sale at Welch’s which proved very successful, bought our cloth and made our own uniforms. They all looked good. The Cheerleaders cheered at every game except two and once even in their dungarees. They also did very well in the tournament at the end of the season. For the cheerleading contest the cheerleaders nominated, then the school voted for Alberta Witham and Norene Holmes to represent them. Joy Wiley. Alberta Witham, and Marilyn Tuttle will graduate but we’ll still have five left to carry on. Our successful year can be greatly credited to our coach, Miss Batchelder, and a lot of hard work. We also wish to thank Mrs. Dodge, who helped with the uniforms and Miss Dennett who transported us to a couple of the games. GIRLS’ SPORTS VOLLEYBALL Our sports this year began with volleyball. We played four games of which we lost two and won two. The girls on the team were Alberta Witham. Captain: Dorothea Rollins, Faye Rollins, Joy Wiley, Norma Witham. Lyn Sherman, Marilyn Tuttle, Shirley Young, Sylvia Shepard, and Pearl Yeaton. SOFTBALL When softball season came this year, it really started with a bang.
