play their games well, The buzzer sounds, and the girls race out to the court. The referee tosses the ball out, and the game begins. Point piles upon point, and excitement spirals to almost hysteric proportions. The cheer- leaders are yelling themselves hoarse, and the Thunderbirds are shouting feverishly. The girls play for everything they're worth, and with Fox High girls, that's quite a lot. People watch the game, little realizing the efforts that are behind this show of skill. For into every game goes the most grueling practice imaginable. Night, after night, day after day, the girls work hard at serving, volleyball, spiking--anything to make them better team-mates. They go home bone -tired, but happy in the knowledge that they are on the way to a championship -quality team. The atmosphere is tense all year. First, worry about whether she'll make the team, then worry about whether she'll be a good team-member, then worry about the game--the all-important game. Worry about the score, worry about the other team, --How good are they?--worry about the performance of each player. But do you give up? just ask them. They'll look at you as if you were crazy. No, one of the main qualities of the Fox High volleyball player is her pride in her sport. So, when, the morning of a game dawns, she may be too shaken up to eat her breakfast, but she loves it. These are some of the things the spectator knows little or nothing about as he watches the Fox High volleyball team go through its paces. He sees only the grace, the expert ball- handling of the players as they lead the Fox High name to another victory. He sees only the end product of many hours of hard labor. But this end product is beautiful. To get down to specifics, the Warriorettes won decisive victories over Festus, Herky, Hillsboro . . . virtually all the conference teams. Although they failed to take home the county championship, the Warriorettes played an outstanding season of volleyball. 59 GWEN GOGARN, Senior, spiker, 4 letters, CONNIE GILLIAM, Senior, spiker, 1 letter.
