During the football and basketball seasons the girls of the cheering squad faithfully attended the games to support the teams and by their cheering lead them on toward Victory. Under the capable leadership of Virginia Klinepeter '36, and Dorothy Brickner '38, the cheering squad has become quite efficient and indispensable to the football and basketball teams. Besides attending all the home games, some of the members of the cheer- ing squad have been present at many of the out-of-town games. The students belonging to this organization are to be congratulated upon their cooperation and interest. Appreciation is extended to them by the boys who so loyally fought for their Alma Mater, either on the gym floor or on the gridiron. We hope that this wondeful organization will continue to exist in the high school and grow larger and more helpful in years to come. During the past school year practice-meetings were held in the mechan- ical drawing room or in the gym, during which various cheers were practiced. M anagers William Wilson '36 -and Vernon Midget Elchert '39 were chosen as stu- dent managers for football. Both lads fperformed their duties faithfully. lf one were to glance into the locker rooms, either William or Vernon was sure to be seen cleaning up. Ioseph Ulman '39 and Gerald Kromer '39 performed similar duties for the basketball squad. Checking equipment and packing grips became easy tasks for these two reliable managers. Page Fifty-Nine
