THE ECHO 19 4 8 B. Wallster, S. Anderson, N. Chapman, L. Mulhern a eer oCeadi erd The cheerleading season got off to a flying start with a dozen girls competing for the honor. Eight of these were chosen; however, only four remained at the close of the season. These girls were Lillian Mul- hern, captain, Selma Anderson, Nancy Chapman, and Betty Wallster. Practice was held in the auditorium or any place that was vacant, and was supervised by Miss Dorothy Mackin. Every game was attended, as well as the games at the “Y” and the Armory. At each game a new cheer was added plus those already learned. Later in the year the girls purchased their own white sweatshirts. The great deal of enthusiasm and support from the High School was much appreciated. The girls were invited to the Testimonial Banquet for the basketball team, and they cheered at this. 27 ’ r
