Stripettes The Stripettes is the Woman's Athletic Association at Grand Island College. It was organized in October, 1925 by Mrs. F. A. Rush, the physical education director. She has continued the sponsorship of this organization for the past five years. Any girl that is enrolled or has been enrolled in college gymnasium work is entitled to membership in this organ' ization. The purpose of the Stripettes is to boost all athletics, and in the Hnest analysis, we believe it has accomplished its purpose. The Stripettes, backed by all the girls on the campus have pledged six hundred dollars to the working fund of the new athletic field. Qflicers: President .............. .............

Cadets At the beginning of each year, twentyffour members of the Stripette organization are chosen to become members of the Cadets. This choice is based upon the marching possibilities of the individual. This year the Cadets bought new suits which will be left with the College as Stripette property, and which will be rented by the Cadet girls each year. A Benefit Revue was given in January. Coffee, brown bread, and baked beans were served after the revue. The school orchestra played several numbers. This was the first appearance of the season and the first performance in the new suits. The suits add much to the military appear' ance and color of the drills.

llllllllllllllllllIllllllllllllllll .I-I-l.l.l.l.l.l-I l v WALTER ROI-ILING C. S. GRIFFIN Captain-Elect Coach Basketball Walter Rohling is a two year letter man, and is captainfelect for next season. Walt started his basketball career in G. I. C. at the center position, and due to his height and ability, has held this position during his two years. He is tall enough to get the tipfoff, and always makes his shots up under the basket. He will be a good reliable man around which to build a team next year. While at WiHiam Jewell College, Coach Griffin played forward and guard on the Iewell's conference winning team. He made all conference team three years, and was captain of the team one year, therefore Griffin knows his stuff about basketball. He has won the love of all the basket' ball fellows, and they work for him. Although not producing the results he would have liked, with the letter men back next year he should have a great team. -IIIINUIII-III I-IIIII-l.l'l'l'l 'l'l'l.l'l'l-I-I-I-I-I
