The initiation was held on September 29th, at which time twenty-three new members were taken in, making a total of sixty- eight. During the home football games, the G. A. A. girls sold hot dogs, candy, potato chips, and coffee and sponsored dances after most of the home foot- ball games. Again the basketball season saw the girls busy with their selling of food. Business seemed unusually good because the exciting games whetted everyone's appetite. This year, for the Hrst time, the G. A. A. girls played football. Football and softball came in the fall and then came the various other activities: volleyball, basketball, ping-pong, bowling and badminton. The volleyball champions were the Juniors, and despite the stiff competition they faced in basketball, the Seniors took the honor of being the champions. This year a change was made in the G. A. A. plans. It honored both the basketball and football boys with a very nice banquet. At the banquet, the Sophomore girls put on a very clever and fitting skit, giving their inter- pretation of a combination football and basketball game. -13-

'U-J The Y-Teens, under the capable direction of Miss Wanamaker, opened the 1949-50 school year with their traditional candlelight initiation of new members. After their initiation, the girls really settled down to business and on December 2, after a few months of careful planning, the Y-Teens presented their annual formal dance, The Cinderella Ball, in the auditor- ium, which was beautifully and appropriately decorated for the occasion. Don Underwood of Van Wert furnished the music for the evening. In March, a lecture was given on health. This lecture was both inter- esting and beneficial as it pointed out the value of good health and ways to maintain good health. In April, Miss Wanamaker's girls made a trip to the Van Wert YWCA in place of their monthly meeting and, needless to say, had a wonderful time. The last group activity of the year was the farewell party for the seniors and with this event, the Y-Teens closed the books on another event- ful and wonderful year. -20-
