On September 6 the pep club was organized and the following officers were elect- ed to take the other members by the hand and lead them through this year: president, Jeannette DeMott3 vice president, Fontella Butlerg secretary, Lorene Ellen Pease, treasurer, Elsie LHMHSBGIQ marshall, Roberta Gage, reporter, Rosalie Hoppe, Georgia Lou Harper and Darlene Tolman served as vice president and marshall following the resignation of the two elected. Betty Phalen, Norma Dean Kyle, Beverly Barker, and Lois Rogers captain, were elected cheer leaders to lead the club in yells and to help them keep up their pep at all football and basketball games. The members chose to call themselves the Minnie Ha-Ha's to correspond with the Indian Braves. Liking the idea of an organized club, the members decided to draw up a con- stitution which the club could follow for years to come. The classes elected as a constitution committee Darlene Tolman, freshman, Joan West, sophomore, Fontella Butler, junior, and Jeannette DeMott, senior. WPeppy and cooperativen are two words descriptive of the spirit in which the club members have participated in school activities. Occasional snake dances per- formed at noon through the halls, and pep assemblies added interest in the games. A section was reserved for visiting pep clubs at the home games. For games out of town a bus was provided for the pep club members. . One big event that the Minnie Ha-Ha's planned and worked out this year was a Chili Supper for the football boys. Five tables decorated with red and blue Indian heads, tepees, and football center-pieces provided places for the fifty guests and twenty-seven club members. Each Minnie Ha-Ha, acting as a hostess, served second helpings of chili, crackers, celery, pickles, and coffee before serving the cherry pie. Darlene Tolman and Patricia Zimmerman played the piano during the meal and Beverly Barker led the group singing before the program. Lorene Ellen Pease wel- comed the guests and presided during the program which included numbers from Norma Dean Kyle, Coach Leamon, James Achey, Carol Calvin, Jeannette DeMott, Robert Banks and James Young.

Their first performance was during the foot- ball season when they played at the last home game. Marching preparations had been made, but the weather did not permit marching. In November the band gave a concert preceding the Junior Play. Much solo and mixed group work had been done. A visit to the Philharmonic y Pop concert was enjoyed by the thirty-five members who took the trip by bus on January l9. During the school year of '46 and '47 we have been very successful in bettering our music department and it is our earnest wish that such Success be continued in the following years. ist. Row: E.
