Page 47 text:

The Girls' Athletic Association is a state organization, and its purpose is to help high school girls cultivate health and physical fitness. Under the leadership of Mrs. Katherine Meisenbach there were thirty - three girls who earned awards through their participation of planned ac- tivities in hiking and softball. The girls receive recognition for their athletic achievements, and awards are based on a point system. The outstanding social events were the Christmas Mother-Daughter Banquet with the theme Christmas Blessings” and the Installation Tea given on May 7 at which our Mothers were guests. The GAA Exem- plar Award, based on scholarship, sports- manship, service, personality, coopera- tion, honesty, knowledge of rules and play- ing ability, was presented to Shirley Lemons this year. Sue Pressey and Renay Smith will represent our organization at State Camp this summer. The last activity of the year was the memorable combined FHA and GAA three-day trip to Chicago from May 20 to June 1. This ended another unforgettable and successful year for the East Pike GAA.

Future Homemakers of America The Future Homemakers of America is an organization for girls devoted to the ideal of preparing them for the role of homemaker, wife, and mother. This is done on every level. This year there were forty-two members. We have done many things this year in the way of social and money-making activities among which were workday, a stand at the Harvest Festival, the Rally at Hamilton, the Sweetheart Ball in co-op- eration with the FFA, and Christmas Carolling. A new project this year was the smorgasbord which was highly successful. Two homemaking awards were given this year. Shirley Lemons received the Betty Crocker Homemaker Award and the Crisco Award was given to Ana Lee Hoover. Our main social activity this year was our trip to Chicago with the GAA which we took May 30, 31, and June 1.
