Our yell leaders this year, Phyllis Hoover, John Walters, and Betty Abbott, filled their places very efficiently. These individuals were chosen by popular vote of the stu- dent body. They have created a spirit of pep and enthusiasm throughout the high school and community. Let us look behind the scenes in the play. “Basketball ’ There you will find the fellow who pulls the curtain, sets the scenery, and controls the lights. With these duties properly- disposed of, the play can go on. We have had a good backstage man this year. To all calls of “Here, Dan!” “Hey, there, Dan!” “Where’s Dan?” “Dan, when-wherc- why?” he has responded with the best of an- swers he knew. Hats off to our student man- ager, Dan Aughinbaugh!

The Chester High School athletic program opened with baseball. This being the second year for baseball at Chester, the team was given ne suits and shoes. They all played very well and made a tine record ot five victories and one defeat. A spring baseball schedule has been arranged. We hope the boys will keep up the good record through the spring baseball season. An intramural basketball league was organized for the boys who did not make the first or second team. Any boy who was not a member of the former teams was eligible if he cared to play. The games for the boys wore played at the noon periods on Tuesdays and Thursdays. There was also an intramural basketball league organized for the girls. Since we had no girls basketball team, any girl that cared to play was eligible to do so. The games for the girls were played on Monday and Wednesday noons. A room on the first floor was equipped with three ping-pong tables. This room was for all who were not eligible or didn’t care to play basketball at noons. From the standpoint of the scoreboard the Panthers did not have a brilliant basketball season. In fact, they were perched on one of the lowest branches of the tree. Despite the defeats suffered, the team displayed un- bounded pep, fight, and co-operation. Four players graduate this year, but with the promising group coming on, we expect to have an outstanding team next year. The second team has shown a lot of pep and skill which we hope will put the Panthers on the top limb next year. Royal blue honor sweaters with the school letters and a stripe on the left sleeve for each year spent on the first squad were pres- ented by the Athletic Association to the four senior boys, Leon Garber, Toe Metzger, Milo Ulrey, and George Walters, Jr. ATHLETIC PROGRAM
