IRLS ATHLETIC CLUB Sports Reporters o o o To provide fun and exercise and to stimulate healthy minds and bodies are the aims of the Girls Athletic Club. Softball, baseball, basketball, and volleyball are the favorite major sports participated in by the girls during the school year. The GAC was led this year by Miss Leota Kenzie, sponsor; Zita Catchur, president; Helen Levent, vice-president; Geraldine Obuch, secretary; Ruth Brazina, treasurer; and Betty Zehme, head-of- sports. Every year the members of the club choose deserving girls to be given awards for sportsmanship, athletic ability, and mental attitude. Other awards are given for service according to a point system set up by the club. In spring the GAC sponsored the annual home-room volleyball tournament which gave each girl in high school, regardless of membership, a chance to participate in active sport. Also in spring the club conducted a formal ini- tiation. As a service to the school the girls sold refreshments at the basketball games.

c c All Star Sports Broadcasters o o The C Club, headed by Ralph Porter, president, drafted and adopted a con- stitution, for the first time in its history, which effected a more efficiently run organization. The members sold programs at all the home football games netting them a handsome profit which made it possible to feature a band at the annual C Club dance in December. The club sponsored the annual “In and Out” game at the end of the bas- ketball season, and in March, arrranged the showing of a popular movie, “Iron Major.” Later in the year, the annual father- and-son banquet was held at which time L U B awards were presented to outstanding athletes by Coaches Emerson Aldrich and Ed Shields, co-sponsors of the club. Clifford Render was twice honored by receiving best mental attitude awards in both football and basketball. George Ko- zak was given the most valuable award for football, while Howard Usselman won the same award for his participation in basketball. The free throw award was given to Norm Banas. Ralph Porter was chosen to receive the C Club all-around award. Boys declared the most valuable in the other sports were Dale Schreoder, wrestling; Fred Eberly, cross country; Louis Kaplan, tennis; and Joe Gasenica, track.
