Pep Club Evolves into Booster Club Last year's Pep club evolved into this year’s Booster club. W ith its new name, the club also took on a new image. The traditional “girls only rule was dropped, permitting interested boys and faculty members to join and to support their school. Mrs. Linda Hemmingsen joined Mrs. Prances Rarick in the sponsorship of the club. The Booster club officers were, Cindy Huls, pres.; Elaine W alker, vice pres.; Elaine Baalz, sec.; Pam Lokie, treas.; Nancy Hartwig, student council. For their annual Homecoming festivities, the club enlisted all four classes in decorating the school. Spurred on by class competition, students created many impressive displays. During the basketball and wrestling season, students were urged to become ding-a-lings. Crazy hats, shoes, and sunglasses were some of the articles worn to display school spirit. The class having the most participants received ding-a-ling bells to use at the games. The football team is welcomed onto the field by booster club members. Chuck Knipe responds “graciously.
