PAGE TEN THE ACORN SENIOR SECTION GLEF CLUB Tlu Oakland High School Glee Club, un- der the direction of Miss Dorothy Fletcher, has made a total of four engagements thus far in the school year. A Christmas as- sembly, featuring music by the Glee Club and pantomimes by the Dramatic Club, was presented to the student body. In February' the organization sang two selections for the first of the Rotary Club’s forums; they were ‘'Give A Man A Horse He Can Ride,” and “The House By the Side of the Road.” This first public performance of the club was acclaimed to be a success. Spring Concert In the joint Mother-Daughter banquet and P.-T. A. meeting held in May, the Glee Club presented its Spring Concert. The program consisted of several numbers sung by the whole group, among them, “Donkey Serenade,” Two Guitars,” and “Will You Remember?” Novelty numbers were presented by three quartets, two made up of boys and the other of girls. The boys’ quartets vocalized on Susan Jane” and “The Bulldog and the Bullfrog.” For an encore, both quartets combined to sing The Bee and the Pup.” Graduation At the graduation exercises June 10 the senior members of the organization will sing Dear Land of Home” from Finlandia and “Recessional”—Kipling. The year’s practice sessions were in the regular club periods and for part of the year on every other Friday. Betty Kildow was pianist for the group for the entire year. Cheerleaders Complete Eventful Year, 46-47 The Cheerleaders, under the instruction of Mrs. Miller, have had a successful sea- son in many respects. They were handi- capped somewhat since there were only three maroon skirts for seven cheerleaders, and the sweaters resembled one another in color only. A dance was held at the beginning of the year to boost the treasury, but returns were insufficient to remedy the situation. At the meeting new yells and motions were made up. mauled over, and finally put to work. The meetings were held any place from the athletic field to the office. The girls made an attempt to unnerve the Aurora Bears at the home game when they escorted two scantily-dressed six- year-olds bearing a large placard, “THE AURORA BARES.” The Cheerleader's hold-over members for next year are Molly Smart, Gloria Johnson, Barbara Pollock, Emily Martin, Barbara Winters, and Della Biggs. They are planning to have better uniforms, a better system for the students to learn the yells, and they will strive to “Keep ’em Yelling.”

SENIOR SECTION THE ACORN PAGE ELEVEN ACORN STAFF County Championship Is Won By Hilander Team Oakland High School’s inlanders again came through to capture the Garrett Coun- ty Scholastic Basket hall Championship. The championship was hotly contested, with Ac- cident and Oakland being the main seekers of the title. Oakland clinched the title in their final game of the season, at G rants- ville, at which time they won by a one-point margin. The season was characterized by a spirit of good sportsmanship and keen playing. Highlight of the season was the trip to Hagerstown where the team battled Hyatts- ville, Md., in the class B” sectional tour- naments. An anti-climax to the season was the Booster Club banquet, in which the team presented Coach Watson with a Rey- nolds pen. Amazon Players Finish Year With Good Record By winning five and ticing one out of a total of ten games. Coach Ruth Field and her squad of Amazon lassies proved them- selves to be better-than-average artists in the game of offensive and defensive basket- ball. They won in both contests with Grantsville and Bayard, and they took one game from Accident. The coaches called the second game with Elk Garden a “draw.” Serving as a victorious climax to the season, the final game with Grantsville, which ended with the Amazons holding a one-point lead, was generally accepted as reward for a year of hard practice. The team members and coach were honored at the Booster Club banquet.
