Basketball The basketball team started fast in the conference, but met a stumbling block in the form of an experienced Wellington team which subsequently won the championship with Estes finishing second. The squad showed great promise, but was never able to find the necessary spark to beat the Wellington team. Promise for future years was shown by the Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen on the team. The season as a whole was highly successful. Back Row (left to right): Mr. Sarrcino. Assistant Coach; Wayne Mall. Manager; Boh Kessler. Bob Stoneman. Duaine Johnson. Mac McDowell. Bob Odell.

The Girls' Athletic Association under the direction of Mrs Cameron was organized early in the school year with the following officers elected: President, Donna Tighe; Vice President, Carol Grayson; Secretary, Elva Kassahn; Treasurer, Carol Lawrence; Volleyball Head, June Jarman; and Basketball Head, Beverly Parton. An intermural basketball tournament was held. Team captains were: Shirley Brunz, Carol Lawrence, Betty Brodie, Lucille Hyatt, and Polly Pepper. Ten girls attended the annual GAA Play Day at Fort Collins A M. All through the year the girls have hiked, bowled, played basketball, volleyball, baseball, and any number of other activities so they could acquire enough points to get a letter or an additional award. MRS. CAMERON Maria Cameron has been one of our busiest teachers this year. She has organized a Junior High Pep Club, and revived G A. A., which had been discontinued. In addition to her regular girls gym and health classes Mrs. Cameron sponsored the Senior High Pep Club and acted as girls counselor. She has handled all of these activities expertly.
