The officers are: president Car- melita Andrews; vice president, Mildred Kitchen; secretary, Marilyn Light; and treasurer, Ethel Bates.

These girls have presented a colorful attraction for the fans and, although small, their voices have boomed in cheering our teams on to one of the best basketball seasons we have had for many years.
