, W . A? 1 5Z Leaders among leaders of spirit-that's our Pep Squad Leaders amongst leaders of spirit - that's our Pep Squad. For the first year, this squad of spiriters has added to its regulars lcheerleadersl a Flag Squad, Drill Team, Pom-Poms, and Mascot. These groups have done much in graduating the spirit of newly knit Titans to much higher ranks. The pep rallies, sponsored by these groups, were a work of art. These were spent in arousing the spirit of the students to the excitement of the oncoming games. Much hard and diligent work at special camps and practice fields was spent in anticipation of this year. All this work prevailed throughout the year, though the opening showing was the best. This pep rally was everyone's debut for the year, and all strove to be tops in their fields. The Pep Squad, together, as a whole, are the most dedicated followers of the Notre Dame teams, and these teams they back with pride and undying effort.

Auditions started in March, and two months of rehear- sals followed, as Notre Dame endeavored to stage the musical Guys and Dolls. Once again, Mrs. Shirley VanderLind directed the play, giving it a professional flair. It was given wide publicity, and strove for authen- ticity in costumes, scenery, props, lighting, even the accents. Guys and Dolls takes place on Broadway when there were gangsters and gamblers and prohibitionists. The story centers around a group of gamblers finding a place for their crap game. The Salvation Army, a trip to Havana, a line of Hot Box Girls, and the police provide humor and suspense to the events. The performance was a smash, and received a standing ovation on both nights. It was the best musical ever.
