RATIC BOY AND GIRL. 0 As our ideal Lana, we have selected tall, slender, brunette Doris Trainer. What student has not seen her wearing a white sweater and garnet culottes as she cheers through a large megaphone helping to lead a rousing yell urging our team on to victory? Doris has served faithfully as forward on the basketball team where her quick movements have been responsible for many points.

In this capacity he attended Student Council meetings, appointed committees and saw that those committees worked. Bob has been a member of the basketball and tennis squads.
