Officers and Sponsor Leona Zieba, president; Sandra Berg, treasurer; Mrs. Miller, sponsor; Donna Berg, vice-president ; Kendra Zinkovich, secretary. G. A. A. “More active than preceding years” seemed to he the slogan of the (iirls Athletic Associa- tion this year. Throughout the year the girls participated in group sports such as basketball, volley ball, bowling, and swimming. By taking part in group sports, the girls earned points to earn a letter and a sweater in their senior year. Red sweaters with black letters were chosen by the seniors. An informal initiation of the new members was held in the gymnasium on September 30. The G.A.A. sponsored a dance after the Griffith basketball game on January 15. The senior girls played against the girls of the Bell Tele- phone operators in a basketball game on March 4. This was the first time that the girls of Edison played an outside opponent for many years, as Edison had had a girls’ basketball team in her early history before the G.A.A. was organized in 1939. The annual banquet was held at the Mar- shall House in Gary on April 28, at which time the awards were presented. G.A.A.
