KRISTI JOHNSON Fight Fight . We're with you all the way, Hey! The Douglas High School varsity rally led an en- thusiastic bunch of supporters through a school spirited year. The varsity squad consisted of six girls and later in the year two boys. Besides boost- ing the overall school spirit, the rally organ- ized pep assemblies, encouraged students to attend away and home games, attended wres- tling and track meets and attended baseball games. For the football season the varsity rally outfits were accented with black on the tradi- tional crimson and gray. Basketball uniforms were entirely red and white, which was a var- iation ofthe usual.

Sounds rather unusual, but this seemed to be the main project of Douglas High's Future Homemakers of America. Egg Cartons were collected, fixed in such a way that they would serve as curtains and when completed they were hung in Douglas' kitchen to brighten up the interior. Officers of the 1968-69 FHS Club were: Jeanette Arthur, presidentg Arletta DeWolf, vice-presidentg and Elaine Hedrick, secretary-treasurer. Another project of the Future Homemakers of America was the selling of Favorite Recipe Cook Books which was a combination of favorite recipes of home economic teachers throughout the United States. Advisor for the FHA Club, Lenore Lewis, formed the club in 1966 to provide interested girls with home- making activities other than that experienced in school and home. The club consisted of approximately 12 members and meetings were held during the activity periods. fe iw. ia. ,ii Arletta DeWolf and Connie Frame lined up for help- ings of the main business at their noon meeting.
