Sophi Spirited Representative Gave Sophs Encouragement Graceful Joanne Bartell forcefully returns the elusive volleyball to her opponents ' side of the court. Janalee Hagan, the Sophomore GAA representa- tive, came forth with so much spirit this year that the whole team was affected. For example, at one of the recent sportsdays held at Palos Verdes, the sopho- mores won all of their fi e volleyball games. It was spirit and teamwork like this that brought home first place for the second year in a row. Besides being a great volleyball team, the Sopho- mores also had a good baseball team. Some outstand- ing players on the team were Janalee as pitcher, Ruth Payton on second base, and Tina Price as catcher.

Vl ' ers show triumphant smiles after winnine; all their ames at the Palos Verdes Sportsday. Freshmen Freshman Girls Invade Upperclass Domain For the first time in two years, Freshman girls at Aviation have been able to enter GAA during first semester instead of ha ' ing to wait until January. To represent their class, the Freshmen chose Becky Smith. Becky was captain of the volleyball team that won five out of five games at the first sportsday in November. By the time January rolled around, the Freshmen were old hands at bringing ribbons and trophies back from sportsdays. Becky Smith, Freshman representative, is proud of her role in GAA. Freshmen form one of the largest groups in GAA — and one of the most spirited.
