Hear ye, hear ye, senior girls, come one come all. Have fun in the exclusive club for senior women. Not only is it an exclusive for girls but it also has an exclu- sive name Philo, short for Philolexians. Each club must have a purpose so this is no excep- tion. Quote “To promote better understanding among all senior girls and to provide entertainment.” The word entertainment can be brought to mind in recalling events of the club. To start the year, the neophytes were wearing the traditional pigtail and the gunny sacks wrapped around their feet. A sight for sore eyes—-sore feet too, maybe! Then came the assembly featuring hair styles done by a local stylist. Of course this was of interest to all, young and old. In order to keep the club moving seven junior girls are chosen as members to preside over the following year. Lucky girls.

The girls in the blue a nd white can be found at every game helping to lead in cheering the team on to victory. Comes game day and the snappy outfits are worn to remind one and all of the game to be. Not only that but before the big games the girls can be found in jeans painting big signs to help in the advertising. As for the social side of the calendar they can usually be seen having a candy concession. It all helps to earn that ever needed penny. And it also fulfills the desires of the spectators. The gala affair of the year is the Spring Formal. Lights are lowered, there’s the scent of flowers in the air, and the dresses swish around the ankles, as all are in seventh heaven for three hours when the land of make believe becomes the cold reality.

| Like the old town crier the Rally club cries out game day! game day! Maybe not by word and mouth but with dark sweaters and white skirts and cords, of course the beany goes too, that are worn on the day of a game. Organized to help pep up the students, they do the job well. Rally club tries to out-go the Pep club with signs advertising the games. They’re getting bigger and bet- ter. Next problem is getting a building large enough to house them. Question is do all forty members help paint or do just a few girls do the job? The big social event of the year was the annual banquet in honor of the football team plus their guests. Question is who is included under the word guests? To become a member of the navy blue and white, you've got to have a majority vote of the old members. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.
