The Senior Pep and Peppers of l9 5 THE BOOSTER GIRLS lQl Our Boosters! The class did not have any mem- bers in this organiztaion when we were freshmen but when we became sophomores four of our class were elected to this honorary club. They were Margaret Pipkin, Helen Sykes, Darlene Wamsley and Elva Cheatum. And what fun! Will we ever forget our initiation? fAfter that we were all careful about eat- ing fudge.J One dear girl picked splinters out of her nose all evening after having become acquainted with the floor. Another little girl worked off quite a bit of surplus fat with some setting-up exercises. Whenwe were juniors thescfourwere reelected and the following eleetcdr Betty Kilmer, Nona Ross, Mary Alice Livingston, Katherine Schoeneman and Margaret Rayl. Many interesting things were discovered at the initiation - one of the girls actually knepv how to scramble like an egg and another was really too good at proposing. Maybe she'll have a chance again some- time as leap year isn,t so far away. Anyway she can hope. Mary Alice Livingston was elected secretary- trcasurer this year. And now we come to the last year. All the old members were reelected and two more members of the senior class, Lorain Robinson and Mary Stead, making a total of eleven seniors on the club and giving the seniors the majority. Elva Cheatum was elected president and Mary Alice Livingston reelected secre- tary-treasurer. So this, my dear children, concludes the story of the exciting adventures of our senior girls in the Booster club. Goodnight, THE PEP CLUB .1Q...... This year for the first time in many years, King- man has had: a Boys, Pep club. Early in the fall the group lwvas organized with Edward Kaufman and Kay Elder as sponsors. The club has been a great asset to the school and has done much toward making the year of '34 and '35 a successful one. The boys wore bright red sweaters and at all school games were there to do their part. They've been a loyal and faithful group. Senior members of the club were as follows: Sam Bridgess, Paul Roberts, George Ross, Joe Wil- liams, John Doll, Bill Brown, Charles Barnhart, Mar- vin Cox and Paul Mann. O Cheer Leaders ly...
