614 P 6' :Mew In the center picture is the Girls' Athletic Association. Sponsored by Carolyn Dejean, it is the largest organization for girls in the high school. Officers of this organization are Norma Myers, president, Nancy Bridwell, secretary, Beth Conley, treasurer. .The club followed a new sports routine every six weeks. The girls con- centrated on one major and two minor sports during this period, thus giving a rotation of sports that was enjoyed by all. This year, for the first time, all junior and senior girls were required to take physical education five days a week. In their Commando training the girls learned special physical skills with emphasis put on body building calisthenics designed to promote muscular coordination. The last six weeks the girls hiked about four miles weekly. The classes present a colorful picture to an observer as all the girls wear regulation blue gym shorts with white blouses. The pictures surrounding that of the G. A. A. show some of the activities carried on in these classes. Basketball and baseball are the favorite athletic games.
