Pawlowski. a eer 1 he cheer leaders of ' 48- 49 got off on the right foot which was unexpected after the hardships that the girls went through for uniforms and new cheers. The Freshmen class was well represented. With only two girls back from last year, four new ones had to learn all the cheers and it took time and practice. Nancy Chapman had returned from last year with Selma Anderson. Those remaining were Frances Skilling, Joan Pawlowski. Nancy Colby. Elizabeth Buckley. Selma Anderson was chosen captain, and Miss Doro- thy Mackin was supervisor. Practices were held in the gym or any vacant place. Although the majority of the group had never cheered in front of a large audience before, they did exceptionally well at the “Y” and Armory games which were the most impor- tant of the whole season, with their support and enthusiasm. {24 y

The Girls ' High School Chorus commenced at the start of the school year with a much larger group than there has usually been. Immediate practice was begun for the Annual Spring Concert which was presented on on April 8. 1949. This, as is the Girls’ Chorus, was under the direction of Miss Margaret T. Murphy. A very effective finale concluded the program as the girls sang The Star Spangled Banner,” while the flag Ctul waved with a blue light illuminating it. The selec- tions for the evening were One Alone” and Your Land and My Land.” On Baccalaureate Sunday and at Graduation, the chorus will also participate. At Graduation Giannina Mia” and You’ll Never Walk Alone,” will be on the program. •i 25
