Each senior homeroom nominated a girl and the football squad elected the queen. The other candidates who served as Phyllis’ court were Louise Carlo, Anna Cosimi, Beverly Monda, Norma Orlando, and Peggv Yocom. Hula's 1950-51 sportsmanship and pep were largely due to the six Senate-chosen cheerleaders. Captain Esther Anderson and Janet Church, seniors; and Donna DePiero, Shirley Kangas. Marie Marta, and Jean Vacca, juniors, made up the Varsity squad. The Reserve squad, nominated and elected by the homerooms and Senate, consisted of Pat Johnson, VeKtta Keagle, Sandra Martello, and Peggy Volpone. Black slacks and white sweaters with gold A’s made up the Varsity uniforms, while black slacks, white sweaters, and blouses were the Reserves’ attire for football season. Black anti white saddle shoes were worn bv both squads. During the basketball season, the varsity leaders wore long-sleeved blouses and black jumpers; the reserve squad wore black long-sleeved blouses with gold weskits and skirts. Leading the cheers in assemblies as well as at games, these girls performed such feats as splits, cartwheels, and back-bends in addition to the yells. Karly morning practices were their means of rehearsing old and learning new cheers. Mrs. Gertrude Van Norman served as adviser to the girls. eightei'n
