Drill Team This year's first appearance of the Laodamians was made at the Yelm-Fife football game on Octo- ber I7, when we combined forces with the band to make many formations. We marched at one other football game and five basketball games. Last we marched for the Daffodil Parade, April Il. Our annual tolo was carried out to the theme of Dancing in the Dark. Another annual social event, initiated last year for the first time, is the banquet given at the end of the year honoring the outgoing seniors. Our officers for this year were Shirley Evenson, president, Marion Stalder, vice president, Barbara Fox, secretary-treasurer, Sandra Keightley, drill cap- tain, and Phyllis Methven, manager. Girls' Sports One of the most active girls' organizations at Fife is our after-school sports. Under the guidance of our advisor, Mrs. Anderson, the girls had another exciting year of turn-out. Volleyball, the first sport on the agenda, started in October. Eight team captains were elected the first of October, each choosing her own teams. When December rolled around, the girls were eager to start a new season of basketball. Basketball went off very well, with Team Six winning the championship. Baseball was a very muddy sport but everyone had fun. Two years or 500 points in girls' sports earns a minor, and three years or 750 points earns a maior toward a plaque.

Another successful year has been completed for the Girls' Athletic Association under the supervision of our club advisor, Mrs. Anderson. Two hundred fifty points have been earned by each girl to enable her to become a memberi By participating in sev- eral organized sports, usually after school, the girls have earned their points. This group has had several activities during the year. ln the fall the traditional Sadie Hawkins Dance was held. On February ninth, thirteen new members were initiated into the club. This proved to be very amusing as each girl dressed as a fic- tional character. The year was completed with the election of new officers. Lettermen's Club At the end of the l95l-52 school year, the Lettermen's Club elected officers for the present year: Ron Mettler, presidnt, Ron Nelson, vice presi- dentg and Howard Wissinger, secretary. Any boy who participates and earns a letter in a maior sport is eligible to ioin the club. Since it is an honorary club, there are not so many activities as some of the other organizations have. The chief duty of the club is to elect an in- spirational award winner. He is chosen for what he has contributed to sports, for his leadership abilities, his personal habits, and his faithfulness in attending turnouts and following the general train- ing rules. Last year's choice was Dwayne Proff.

The play was a three-act comedy entitled You Can't Take lt with You. ' The action took place in the living room of the Vanderhof home where a person could find anything from a snake aquarium to a printing press. Among the other uses for this room was the practicing of ballet steps, eating of meals, writing of plays, and iust living in the fullest sense of the word. At the head of the house was Mr. Martin Vanderhof, or grandpa as he was better known, played by Dave Emry. He was a business man who lust quit business one day to get a little enioyment out of life. Presiding over the house, collecting snakes, and going to commencements were his favorite pastimes. Then there was Penelope Sycamore, better known as Penny, lKatherine Jensenl the playwright. Shegstarted writing plays one day because a typewriter was delivered to the house by mistake. Her husband, Paul Sycamore lRichard Raganl, manufactured fireworks in the basement during his spare time and sold them on the Fourth of July. Gordon Anderson played the part of Mr. DePinna, the general handyman and brain of the fireworks department in the basement. If you are wondering how Mr. DePinna was added to the family, it seems that he came to deliver ice one day and iust stayed. The two colored servants, Mardelle Savicki as Rheba and Dick Dunbar as Donald, were also chief fly catchers for the snakes. Essie Carmichael lGeorgia Lindstroml took dancing lessons from her instructor Boris Ko- lenkhov lJim Turleyl while in the other corner Ed Carmichael Uohnny Bohrenl was printing. The Duchess of Russia lRhoda Brittl also paid a visit. An Internal Revenue man, Henderson by name lLeroy Ellestadl, almost fell into the snakes accidentally. To add to the commotion, the police lHoward Wissinger and Leroy Ellestadl were aroused on several occasions. Penny brought home a drunk playwright, Miss Wellington lMarion Stalderl, that she found on a bus. Wickstrom, director. When the play drew to a close, Alice Sycamore lPat Nelsonl was getting married to Tony Kirby lBilI Spearl, the son of a well-to-do business man, Mr. Kirby, and his wife lEd Carder and Victorine Boitanol. Mr. Wickstrom served as director for the play, and Eleanor Yoshioka and Shirley Evenson were student directors.
