Michael Martin, Headmaster 1947-1952 Class Hustorq Once upon a time there was an old fort, by name, Fort Casady. It was located in central Oklahoma, set apart from civilization, and sur- rounded by savage hordes of Indians. At the pleading cry for more people, our first trailblazers donned their buckskins and began the long trek. In '47 Richard Nettles, originator of the Girl of the Month Club, left his prize haven for a five-year stay. Long Tom Harmon then saun- tered in and took his post at the chapel door. Up rode Charles Garrison, dismounted, threw away his lollipop, drew his six-guns and savagely signed Jiggy Cin leadl on the dotted line. At last we were getting the kind of men we wanted. We can't exactly explain how this next charac- ter arrived. All we saw, after the dust had cleared, was City Boy step out of Hall's Horseless Carriage. He came from Northeast - in ZZ minutes. In bounced Bubb1ing Bob Lingenfelter , in time for lunch, and took his part on the rampart. DeVan Sharbrough staggered in and took charge of the Wampum dealings in the school store. From Switzerland came Chris Brauchli, with his moun- tain climbing equipment which he used to scale the pennacles of academic success. In '48 two more were added. Into the gates meandered a long drink of water who called himself George Records, the young giant. He was looking for a thirsty girl, but joined our small band of defenders. Davis jenkins ran all the way from Harding, beating off the Indians with his slide rule. '49 saw the 'Brains'of the outfit arrive. Judy Ames, arrived with a raft of blue books, teamed up with Elsie Paulus to give the male factions of the 'Fort' a lesson on scholarships. Harrison, I killed a b'ar on the spot Hayes entered the stockade to add a badly needed touch of dignity. Receiving the Bishops Bronze Cheevi- sate Medal at Classen. Bob Brazelton decided to try for the Golden Sideline Marker Award given exclusively at Casady. As to the success of his endeavor you will have to ask him. The next year saw the last of our recruits. Joe Obering arrived from Detroit with high hopes of starting a revolution inside the fort. It fell through but he stayed over. At mid-year we heard, Hold'everything, the All-American boy is com- ing, and in strode Pat Hyde, still clutching his Phi Lambda pin and his box of Wheaties. Thus the class of '52, as this group is now called, signed on to hold down the fort. GILBERT TUCK 3.14. Union College M,A, Harvard University ALBERT E.

We of the eleventh grade class have almost reached the end of another eventful year. As a class we have matured a great deal and the Casady spirit has grown stronger with- in us. We are proud of our classmates and the contributions they have individually and collectively made to our school. jim Tolbert has unselfishly and with no thought of reward devoted much of his spare time to the school store. jim, Guy james, and Charles Rountree have been our representatives on the Student Council and every one of us feels he has done a great job. Phil Griffing and Robert Porter are two of the camera club's mainstays. Phillip has given much of his free time to the project of raising money for the Casady photo contest. Thanks to Robert we always have plenty of pictures of Casady events and the proceeds from the sales of those pictures are unselfishly donated to the Camera Club by Robert. The only three girls in the class are Kathie Mulvey, Kathryn Keller, and Carolyn Young. ln addition to all of them being on the honor roll, they have three of the best voices in the choir. Kathie and Carolyn are also cheer leaders. Hugh Putman, Guy James, Bill Leney, Robert Porter and Dick Bohanon give the bass section that extra some- thing that distinguishes them from the rest of the choir. Will Obering's sharp wit, this year as in the past, has helped to keep us all amused. Hugh Putman's antics and Charles Rountree's tall tales also lessen the tedium of the school day'and keep us all in a good mood. Bud Led- better has shown each and every one of us that he has great acting ability, starring in this year's Christmas play and many other past dramas. Eddie Cook is one of the school's chapel boys. This is quite an honor and we are proud Eddie is one of our class. As we poise on the threshold of our last year, we look forward with eager anticipation to the prestige and privi- leges of being seniors. Though none of us singly may at- tain great fame, we shall achieve distinction by being the first class to graduate after having attended all six years at Casady. lNass 0fI954 TOP ROW: Rodman Frates, Rowland Denman, Pat McHenry, Kent Beals, Lee Neeley, Derby Wilson, John Carlson, Bob Bowles SECOND ROW: Diane Douglass, Margaret Herrmann, Nancy Woods, Bob Price, Wendell Long, Vernon Cook, Bill Bonham, Bruce Kennedy, Charles Ramsey, Phil Bass. FRONT ROW: Nancy Holtzendorff, jean Russell, Dolly Lamb, Marilee Parrish, Sharon Stewart, Nancy Norville, Margaret Lytle,' jane Ellingson, Ann Sheridan Watson. Why is the class of 1954 the most outstanding class in the school? Simply because we have all the best people in every sphere of every department. Let's look at the facts. Who are the best composition writers and the worst spellers? Rodman Frates and Bob Price. Who is the best horsewoman? Marilee Parrish. What other class has so many camera bugs without whom the newspaper, and the yearbook would not be able to get along? Our class. A- mong these, Kent Beals, Lee Neeley, and Ann Sheridan Watson are the leaders. Who has the reputation of official lady-killer and all-around big-wi? Rowland Denman. Who is the best tennis player in the school and practically the whole state? jane Ellingson. Who is in line for a partner- ship in the firm of Merril, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner, and Bean because of the fortune he's piling up in stocks? Derby Wilson. Who has the smallest waist in the school? Margaret Herrmann, a mere twenty-one. Who is the clever- est cartoonist with a flair for getting kicked out of class also? Pat McHenry. What girl has the best carriage? jean Russell. Who is the all-time champ of the Math Department? Wendell Long. Who could give a course in extensive over- seas correspondence? Dolly Lamb. Who is second only to Hopalong Cassidy in cowboy attire? Phil Bass. Who is the nuttiest girl in school? Nancy Woodhead Woods. Who is the fastest boy for his age, on the track, of course? Bob Bowles. Who has the most attractive face? Nancy Holtzendorff. Who has the thinnest hair in school? Charles Ramsey. Who is known as the girl with the most beautiful hair? Nancy Norville. Who cheats more seventh graders out of their hard-earned nickels? Bruce Kennedy. Who chews up more pencil erasers than anyone else? Diane Douglass. Who is well-known as the boy with an excess of relaxed muscle ? Big john Carlson. Who is the top receiver of ninety-nines in any subject? Margaret Lytle. Who drives a car most recklessly, yet runs the book-store most efficiently, and is the essence of the proper dress for the respected man about town ? Bill Bonham, Who is well-liked by everyone, full of humor and serious at the same time? Vernon Cook. The sophomore class is a veritable gold-mine of wise- crackers, gum-chewers, experienced handy-men at anything from receiving demerits to top honors and the most enthusi- astic party-goers. lt is easy to see why all these boys and girls unified in a class working for the good of the schoolg on the sports field, in the classroom, in extra curricular activities, or just on their own free time make the class of 1954 the most outstanding class at Casady.

FRONT ROW: Elydreth Russo, Marcia Watson, Susie Neeley, Marilyn Maxfield, Ann Stephens, Louise Leney, Margaret Leonard, Pamela Wren, Beverly Bonham. lt would take volumes to properly evaluate the class of 1955. Here are boys and girls whose beauty, wit and charm are legendary. To do justice to their virtues would bank- rupt the English language. There is Marilyn Maxfield whose keen mind commands our utmost respect and Teeg Coston whose humor and skill with many languages fnotably Cockneyj has excited our wonder. Notables on the athletic field are Fritz Hunzicker, Jim Sturdivant, Charles Schweinle, Charles Walbert and Rob Rainey. Tney are the outstanding athletes and deserve our plaudits. Gary Kirk's droll tongue brings a smile to our eyes. Ed Barth who rivals Einstein in Math and Bill Rookstool's fine record on the Student Council have Drought great credit to our class. Turning to the distaff side of our class, there is Susie Neeley, whose bubbling vitality makes her the life of the party and the class. There is also Pamela Wren whose sparkling personality pierces the stout armor of Charles Walbert's heart. lt is impossible to speak of the female members of our class without thinking of Marcia Watson, Beverly Bonham and Louise Leney. Marcia's infectious laughter causes merriment among all of her classmates. Beverly is the shy and quiet beauty whom all admire. Louise is the cutest genius I have ever met. You can always count on Louise and her pooka to give you a laugh. We will always remember our sweet and demure Margaret Leonard and our two dashing Lotharios - Ford Price and jay Bernstein. This year's ninth grade has gladly welcomed two new- comers - Stewart Sibel and Jim Sturdivant, both of whom have become welcome additions to our class. Nearly everyone in our class has an interesting hobby. Gray Frederickson is an expert boatman, Bill Robertson is a scientist, David Rodgers is an icthiologist, Ted Reifen- stein is our lturbi and Michaelangelo, Elydreth Russo is capable of making original figures out of clay and Ann Stephens collects snakes Cthat's a charming hobbylj This chronicle marks the end of a successful year in the ninth grade and now we hopefully enter the upper school. May the next be a better year for us all. ,MW FIRST ROW: George Douglass, Kent Frares, Ben Allen Wright, Bill English, jay Russell, jody Rountree, Fletcher Sharp, George Barry, Don Bradshaw, Charles McCann, George Barnes.

FRONT ROW: Nicole Puzin, Susan Schweinle,Kay Hardwick,Betty Lanier, Helen Culbertson, Peggy Ramsey, Betty Bowles, Mary Gordon Ferguson. We finally finished the first year of being punk seventh graders and have been big eighth graders this year. The eighth grade has had people in almost every school activity. Sally Herrmann and Polly Ishmael as cheer leaders were able successors to Betty Bowles and gave unladylike but loyal yells which were echoed by Nicole Puzin, Ann Butler and Becky Hunzicker in the cheering section. Bill English and Barney Stewart were charter members of the limpers club while Ben Wright headed the dog lovers association. George Barnes and Peggy Ramsey represented our grade on the Student Council and the young scientists Bass, Bozarth, Douglass and Stuart carried on experiments which stumped the masters. Our year was made more enjoyable by julia Dunning, Odelia Russo, jo Ann Davidor, Linda Kennedy, Helen Culbertson and Betty Shelburne who all had parties. Flet- cher Sharp and jay Russell got tired of driving all the way to school so they moved to Nichols Hills. Rountree, Lucy Davis and Barry were some of the people who consistently made the honor roll. Harris, Fentriss and Bradshaw are among those out for track this spring and Kelly was one of the stars on the Tiny Tot basketball team. Outside hobbies attract some of our members such as Savage in photography, McCann in hunting, Mary Gordon Ferguson in Art, Cynthia Crowe and Betty Lanier in riding and Marilyn Mee in piano. Susan Schweinle and Kay Hard- wick are two excellent duet players. Next year we will climb another rung of the ladder so don't forget to refer to us as sophisticated ninth graders when you see us in the fall. Class Of 1957.

FRONT ROW: Bill Bonney, Tom Dulaney, John Bozalis, Pat Nagle, Jimmy Nicholson, Kenneth Binder, Ben Turner, Charles Lutz, Kent Carlin, Stephan Hudkins. This year's seventh grade at Casady is considered by the grave and much-snowballed seniors the largest and rowdiest thus far. Already it has set records in book checks and confiscations in Allen Hall. However, the sober side of seventh grade life is reflected in Bob Thach who has held the highest seventh grade honor roll position since the first of the year. The seventh also has a promising athletic record with such stars as Layton Runkle, Bert Messenbaugh, Albert Upsher, Markham Connolly and Mac Owen in football. In basketball Randy Robbins made the Jay Vees his second day, and Kenneth Binder sparks the Tiny Tots. Bill Bonney and Johnny Bozalis ought to get trophies for their excellent goaling during the soccer season, and maybe they will some day - on the Varsity. So far our student council members have been Layton Runkle, Sharon Brown and Joan Whitney. They have done a fine job. Bill Rolen is the president of the seventh grade Stamp Club which has just started this year. ln the very middle of a marking period Pat O'Donoghue slipped off to Hawaii with his parents and came back to be looked upon with awe as a man of the world and the official seventh grade globe-trotter. It has been a gala social year also. Parties were given by such dashing beauties as Linda Adams, Judith Jones, Linda Griffing, Sperry Jones, Phyllis Johnson, Jo Ann Kimball, Suzanne Maidt, Marian Watts, Sylvia Glasglow, and others. Bennie Wileman Qalong with his sisterj gave a skating party. Kent Carlin was chosen King of the Mardi Gras. Be- cause of her ability to do the Alabama Boogie , Montine Price was made the girls' cheer leader, and Gail Little was made cheer captain. Tom fthe poetj Dulaney has written for the school paper, and it is hoped that he will continue. Eric Sorenson with his sparkling wit keeps the honor roll study hall in a constant uproar. He clowns in the morning and studies in the afternoon. When there is no morning study hall he feels slighted. Altogether it has been a great year. The seventh grade is just beginning at Casady and coming into form. CThe masters hope that it is.j We have much to look forward to in the future. fff X Wx Casadq Award Dartmouth Cup Don Haskins, 1951 Faculty Award Girls' Athletic Award M rgaret Lytle Ann Sheridan W 1951 1950 1' V? ffgfff 2 il F we NWN f' it x ,fa if 9 5 S S 'M J re M 0 s .c .. , GA f-.

Student Council STUDENT COUNCIL REPORT The 1951-52 session of the student council succeeded in maintaining the high standards of performance and service rendered by last year's council. This year it was composed of two representatives elected from each class along with it's very competent officers: Charles Garrison-President, jim Tolbert-Vice- President, and Derby Wilson-Secretary. It most successfully performed its prime function- giving the students, through their representatives, an out- let for expressing their ideas and suggestions which they believe beneficial to the school. It continued to promote better relations, as always, and understanding between students and faculty. Some of its accomplishments have been listed. It provided for an annual prom committee to take charge of arrangements of all school dances. Also in connection with dances, the student council passed a law prohibiting the extravagant practice of giving corsages at school dances. This was greatly appreciated among the male ranks. Another very beneficial service performed and initiated this year with great success, by the council, was the pub- lishing and distributing of our first student directories. This student council function Will, in all probability, become an annual affair. Another service rendered by the student council was the providing of an opportunity for all students to secure one of the coveted Theater Identification Cards. It put on the first All-School Talent Assembly, with great success. Also through the backing and support of this year's student legislatures, many of the proposals of last year's council have become prosperous realities taking their prominent place in the school life. Along with these are a multitude of other odds and ends, ironing out difficulties and helping to encourage and smooth out all the many school operations. I if 'Yearbook Staff Editor ........ . . .

Dramatics This year the Casady Drama Society has really come into its own. Under the expert tutelage of Mr. William Walker a stage has been built and for the first time the school now owns permanent scenery. During the Christmas season Buddy Ledbetter, Judy Ames, Sharon Stewart, Guy james, Ann Watson, Chris Brauchli, Dick Bohanon, and Rowland Denman did an excellent job in A Star Is Born. Robert Porter got all the lights off and on at the right time. At the present time a melodrama, Our Nell, is in rehearsal. Next year should see great things. . f Q r Q 1, V' ,fi X gif.

The group is made up entirely of past and present letter- - men, and is governed by a set of officers, who are: joe Obering, Presidentg Richard Nettles, Vice- Y M President, Pat Hyde, Secretary, and H Tom Harmon is the treasurer. 1, K +5124 . The organization's duties are ' ' f - very important. Perhaps the most important one is to promote sportsmanship and good will. The club is in charge of sponsoring the annual dance given for Casady's traditional foe, St. .Mark's of Dallas. Also included in the duties is the newly started system of buying and re- selling used athletic game equipment, mostly from alumni. With this start they hope to install something which the school has long lacked, to have an in- dividual organization handling this instead of the school. Even though the club is still in its infancy, it has naturally become one of the most respected groups at Casady. To attain a place in the gathering means a lot of hard work and many long, strenuous hours on the playing field. The white C on a jacket is gr M K Y the membership card, but a member A' has to keep one thing in mind. That H is, that the ideals of the school are to be upheld. He must do his duty and promote the ideas and under- takings with the betterment of the ' school in consideration. Casady will receive much help from this organization. 5 fluff , ,. - V , ,Q E gt W ,2-r,'-' -7 WK' mi 4 -f ' EV ,gmt www lf kwa .- A5 v G2 JI .ai sf 5 1 X, - ' X li iii ' i ,xx ',. is I 7 ff was 'N '5 QW THIRD ROW: Mr. Fenimore, Bill Leney, Don Nicholson, Jim Tolbert, John Carlson, Mr. Whitney.

Football The most notable factor that this year's foot- ball team possessed was its unfathomable spirit. Seriously outmanned as many times as not, Casady either won the game or lost it grandly by never letting down on account of this spirit. Casady, this year, probably had their dream team. 'I' Listen to this lineup! Garrison, Harmon, Hyde, and Leney were the ends: they were as- sisted by Nettles and Nicholson at the tackle slots.. The guards were Tolbert, Carlson, and Sharbroughg Hall was the center, thereby com- pleting the forward wall. The backfield had such notable players in it as: Cook, Haskins, and james at quarterback, Rountree, jenkins, and Bowles were the half- backs, with Obering as fullback. Obering and Nettles, respectively, won the Most Valuable Back and Lineman Awards.'l' Incidentally, this was the third time for Nettles. jenkins and Hall, respectively, won the Most Improved Back and Lineman Trophies , this being the second time for jenkins. The first game was between Casady and Chandler A squad, which Chandler won 35 to 13. Casady wasn't quite up for the game.. Casady's next contest was with Midwest City B and the Twisters took it handily 39 to 6. Casady's third outing was against Central B and the Cyclones walked over them to the tune of 27 to O. The fourth game and Casady's third win was at St. Mary's expense by winning it 27 to 0. Casady dropped the next one 34 to 13 to St. Gregory's, but quickly pulled out of it when they won the traditional and most sought after game off of Dallas' St. Mark's by 7 to 6. After this, Casady could have lost the rest and still have been forgiven. The Twisters easily finished off Capitol Hill B, 26 to 6. Then the Blue and White boys barely saved their sixth win by toppling Bethany A, 7 to 6. This game was the finish of a memorable season. Casady made one hundred and fifty-eight points to the opponent's ninety-three. U The season was successful in all ways, especially in contri- buting to the school greatly in prestige and morale. We give our deepest thanks to our coach, Mr. Bob Fenimore, for without him none of this could have come true. tread- X f l!,.af.,1V i -1 -....,.. f 1 Q M .L 27552 H mK-k - ,ff:' 113, 2-K w.,.,.., -af ,k Q if M354 V' 1? .4 'N o -...QQ t'6'pf M 1 RM .

Basketball The 1951-1952 basketball team was again the victim of lack of adequate facilities with which to produce a winning team. The scorebook indicates that the team possessed individual stars, but lack of a gym resulted in practice difficulties and made it impossible for the boys to work smoothly as aswell balanced team. Although victorious in only one of fifteen starts the team enjoyed the season very much. The leadership goes to Captain Joe Obering who inspired everyone with his constant hustle and excellent rebounding ability. Houston Hall lead the team in the scoring column with 102 points in 11 games for an average of-9,1 points a game. Pat Hyde played good ball and turned in his best all-round performance of the season against St. Markfs when he connected for 11 points. The height of Bill Leney was a constant asset to the team and his 10 big points against University High at Norman stand out as his finest game of the year. Casady possesses a tremendous ball player in the person of Don Haskins. When other members of the squad fouled out, became dis- couraged or simply ran out of gas, Don always carried the load.. He played his finest game of the year against Southeast High School when he hit 12 of the team's 16 points. The squad ended the season by going to Dallas for a game with arch rival St. Marks. The boys played their most consistent game as a team, but came out on the short end of a 45-37 score. Leading almost the entire way Casady lost much scoring punch when Center Houston Hall fouled out with five minutes to go. After that it was St. Mark's ball game. Next year's returning lettermen include Don Haskins, Bill Leney, Charles Rountree, Bob Bowles, and john Carlson. With the return of these boys we hope that basketball can compete with the school's winning football and baseball teams. We are looking forward to the day when Casady will be able to field a winning basketball team in its own gym. We feel certain that the day is not far away. was 'lf E0 Hof 4,540 -vu T V k,Q yeh, 540 L ..a..,.,,f ,gh SAW 355540,-FY Jgkislpl fi-of SECOND ROW: Mr., Whitney, Bill Leney, Charles Mee, Houston Hall, John Carlson, Jim Tolbert. FIRST' ROW: Don Haskins, Eddie Cook, Pat Hyde, Phil Bass, Vernon Cook, Charles Ramsey. Baseball On April 21, 1951, Casady won its first athletic event from St. Mark's. The sport that was credited with this win was Baseball, which fielded the same team that had lost two games to the Dallas bunch the spring before. The game was won 3-1 on Don Haskin's unequalled pitching, and thus was established the great rivalry be- tween St. Mark's and Casady. Behind Haskins was a team, coached by Mr. Whitney, that did all they could to take some of the load off the little man's shoulders. At first base was Houston Hall, a boy who had the highest batting average the season before last. On second was Guy Spencer, who had the second highest batting average in '51. At short was Eddie Cook, and stationed at the hot corner was Guy James. In left field was Bill Leney, while in center was Paul Murrah, the backbone of the team and the boy who walked away with the batting title having a .375 mark. Holding down the right field spot was a newcomer, Charles Ramsey, as was Vernon Cook who shared the catching responsi- bilities with Richard Nettles. Charles Mee, joe Obering, Don Nicholson, and Pat Hyde filled in quite well in the clinches and the same is ex- pected this spring of the two rookies Phil Bass and john Carlson. The game where the team probably looked its best was against Guthrie in their park. The final score was 11-O with Casady playing errorless ball and'thoroughly trouncing the Guthrie boys. Some other games where they shone were against such teams as Capitol Hill, Edmond, and St. Mary's with the season finally ending in a seven won and six loss record. This spring the team, again coached by Mr. Whitney, has high hopes for its future, though such great players as Paul Murtah and Guy Spencer graduated. To fill their places are two boys whom everyone feels sure will succeed, Phil Bass at second base and Charles Ramsey in center. May we all wish the team the best of luck and to be sure, of all others, to beat' St. Mark's. 9 N we SECOND ROW: Mr. R. Pennington, Davis Jenkins, Joe Obering, Richard Nettles, Charles Garrison, Wendell Long. FIRST ROW: Charles Rountree, Dick Bohanon, Guy james, Lee Neeleya Track The history of the Casady track team is a little vague but as well as it can be told it was first begun by a handful of baseball-haters. These six boys thought that it would be nice to do something besides play baseball, they didn't care what, but track did not sound bad. The idea was presented to the faculty and after due consideration Mr. Rex Pennington was chosen as head coach because of previous experience. Mr. Howard Taber volunteered as assistant coach and with the necessities out of the way the coaches dug in and attempted to whip six of the poorest conditioned boys in school into shape. Their concern began to pay off as the boys went to work and in a matter of days they clipped seconds off their first timing. Mr. Pennington worked very hard and before long we had five meets to go to. Our first trip was to Duncan. We did not take anything but it built up our prestige and gave us experience. Later on we werit to Edmond, Weather- ford, Shawnee, where we were one of five relay teams to qualify for the final running, and Chand- ler. Chandler was our most successful meet. Still we took no trophies but we did get some team points. Bob Bowles picked up one point in the one hundred yard dash and Davis Jenkins added one in the 440 yard run. Dan Keller also went to the finals in the discus at Weatherford. Our relay team consisting of Charles Rountree, Robert Puzin, Bowles, and jenkins came close to a third place point at Edmond, missing it by only one fifth of a second. The season of 1951 was a good warmup for the team and we expect to do much more in the season of '52. With a much larger turnout this year, as compared to the six of last year, alumni Dan Keller and Robert Puzin and this year's stalwarts, Charles Garrison, Jenkins,'Rountree, and Bowles, we can have one person train for each event instead of one person training for four and being tired for his best event. But with ten or more out we can specialize and we plan to bring back the bacon this year. it , , E t I5 K, 34. at all lj as at Q--' ,ff ,,L-,, 5 Qjwgt nfs 'D FOURTH ROW: Wendell Long, Don Nicholson, Gary Kirk, Bill Rookstool.

Champions I'm one of the soccer players at Casady and I'm proud of it. Before this soccer was a means of taking care of expelled basketball players, but not so this year for now, we have promise of competition. Before this we had defeated the faculty, an easy task for such soccer genius but now we planned to play St. Mark's. Again we defeated the faculty 2 to 0. The day of the Texas game approached and preparations for it were made. Don Nicholson sharpened his cleats, Charles Mee sharpened his wit, while Vernon Cook kept worrying about big league soccer and how badly we would get beaten if there was so much as one big leaguer on their team. Then the day approached and at 10 o'clock we appeared and beat them 6 to O. This was due to Mr. Morse's coaching and the fine work done by the forward line including Eddie Cook, Davis jenkins, and Wendell Long. These were substantially supported by a backfield with Vernon Cook wearing his fingers out blocking goals ffive attemptsj, Hugh Dad Putman and Bill Rookstool as the other fullback. Well, we beat them. If you want to know why it's because of spirit. Spirit interred in us by good coaches, and associates that made the game a lot of fun for everyone. Five years ago we only had a field, with one building in the background and only thirty four students to Compete. This year we had over a hundred student participants with four buildings and a beautiful chapel. Maybe next year despite our loss of players we can show Casady some real soccer, sportsmanship, and spirit making a good game ever better.

Cheer Leaders The Casady Gir1's Squad began last year with the competent leadership of our first cheer leaders, Sharon Stewart, Ann S. Watson, Marcia Watson, Betty Bowles, Peggy Ramsey and Kay Hardwick. The 1951 Edition was led by Margaret Herrmann, Kathie Mulvey, Carolyn Young, Polly Ishmael, Montine Price and Sally Herrmann, who did an equally peppy job. The uniform situation was improved by the adoption of all white for the leaders and blue and white for the cheering squad. The squad lias done a great deal to arouse and in- crease the school spirit and it's sure to improve as it becomes more experienced. A WAOVHV AYN fffw' 'wr ,S 3 in aw ? i A ,x qi Y A L.,i.'Nl1is WDW?
