R O T nits Are Marching The R. O. T. C. cadets have had a big year. Headed by two new in- structors, Sgt. Dalton L. King and Sgt. Leland R. Anderson, the cadets with the newly-organized girls unit have taken over many responsibilities around the school. The boys guard the parking lot during basketball games and P.-T. A. meetings, and the girls help with registration and collections at P.-T. A. meetings. We are also sure that many freshmen were thankful for the girls in uniform who helped them on their first day of school. The boys' rifle team consisting of Laurence Shirley, Keith Powell, Harry Jack, Paul McClelland, John Lightfoot, William Hoagland, Jerry Kerkhoff, Paul Bishop, Larry Lawalin, and David Hodge, topped a good year by placing first among city teams in the Randolph Hearst Trophy Match. The greatest change in the R. O. T. C. this year has been the addi- tion of a girls' unit. The girls form one company of the battalion with Capt. Iris Wilson as commanding oflicer assisted by 1st Lieutenant Alyce Lawson. Although none of the girls had had previous training, they came through with Hying colors in the Armistice Day Parade and helped win the iirst place streamer on our flag. The R. O. T. C. is proud of its year, and the nchool is proud of its unit. The R. O. T. C. helps prepare the student to be a good citizen and helps to develop the qualities of leadership. twenty-nine
