G-AA and Varfit lub Dave Mastny was not one to let a new member of the Varsity Club miss a chance to polish his shoes. The Varsity Club is an organization of varsity letter winners, whose activities not only in the games, but during them as well, insure that each game or event is run smoothly. The club ran coat checks, the concession stand, and sold programs to make certain that everyone received the most enjoyment possible at the game. Club meetings were not regularly scheduled, but held whenever immediate action was adivsable. Such logic was a good indication of the active and useful nature of the organization. The decrepit teachers won, but the ofhciat- ing was controversial. The Faculty'Varsity Club game was one of the best received events as an estimated 1,000 Spartans showed up to root for the letter winners.

Formal meetings were few, but necessary as almost all of the time spent in G.A.A. was used to participate in the sports. sefnl G.A.A. officer Lynn Farnick, Cheryl llurcisin, Laura Evans, and Debbie Palanci ran meetings with parliamentary procedure. Girls who complained of over emphasis on boyls athletic programs were not aware of the opportunities for participation in sports as varied as swimming and Held hockey offered by the GAA. The club had several days during the week that the equipment was available to members who wished to develop a skill or merely relax. X 67 l
