OFFICERS It's orchids to the Trojanettes who directed ' organized cheering throughout the football and basketball seasons. Winning the support of the students for football and basketball teams, that lose the majority of the games they play, is usually difficult. During '39-'40, it was the duty of the pep club MISS TURNER to win enthusiasm for the sporadically winning teams, and to plan and present pep assemblies. Probably the longest remembered was the Kay Kyser program, presented November 10, preceding the Smith Center football game, fincidentally the only football game Beloit wonl planned by the Q Q , sophomores, and directed by Rebecca Vallette. 3 The Trojanettes, under the sponsorship of Miss Turner, were divided into four groups, according to their class and each had its turn to arrange and present a pep meeting. Marie Miller, Junior, was president of the fifty-three members. Page 26 1 1 1 1

Coach Ellis went to the cupboard for the ingredients of a coach's dream dish, but like old Mother Hubbard, he found the cupboard bare as a bootlegger's cellar after a raid, so he dug down into the Reserve de- partment and blasted into the 1940 cage season with Lorraine Chestnut, the only uleft-over from last year's crew. Six games slipped by before the Trojans tasted the victor's meal when they out-hustled the Min- neapolis Lions in a 22-18 free-for-all. When these teams squared-off again on the municipal court, the fouls came thick and fast with the coaches using everyone but the water boy to replace regu- lars before the Trojans eked out a 27-26 thriller for their second and last taste of the victorts dish of the season. Paul Bohning sparked the 1940 attack with 101 points while Delmar Wicks dropped 20 of his awarded charity tosses for team free throw honors. When next year's squad takes to the court, Wicks, Bohning, and Davenport will be absent from duty, but a large delegation of this season's crew will be rear'n to go. Returning first squad veterans are Williams, Adams, Ratcliff, Tice, Hyde, Chestnut, J elinek, C. Henderson, and B. Henderson. At the left is the marching band which has always been faithful in appearing on the stage at basketball games and on the field at football games, as well as helping in any way they could for the school and community.
