It seems that the brains of the hardwood couldn’t quite keep up with it, but Coach Fox came to the rescue with his boosting talks and his movements of rhythm to bring the boys soaring towards the ton. The fancy footwork really brought out the crowds. Come rain or snow a person just couldn’t find room to seat a pin, and with crowds of that size along came Mr. Enthusiasm. The old rafters really did ring when Hilhi made a score. We can’t say as we blame them.

G. A. A., or in other words Girls’ Athletic Associa- tion, is really on the ball, or maybe we should say behind the ball. The membership consists of anyone who has earned ten points in sports. This isn’t just a local rule, it’s state wide. Yes, sir, these fair damsels have to answer to the state. But this doesn’t seem to hinder them for they number forty-eight in all. Sizeable to say the least. They have their share of the fun too. Bowling par- ties are a big thing heading the list “for fun.” Then there’s participation in play days with other schools. This offers a bit of competition to the fun. Last but not least is the auction of all lost or strayed clothing. This will be done in the gym, better buy back your things, gals. Like most other clubs, these fair girls must have a workout along the concession line. Yes, they too have sold refreshments at the games.
