I'll ask her where she got it. I imagine she bought it soniplace. Maybe I can get one of them. Pardon me, but would you tell me where you got the C ? Of course, but it is a long story. VJi1l you have time? Yes, please explain. When I was in the ninth grade, my girl friend, who was the athletic type asked me if I would join the G. A. A, with her as I had joined every other club with her. I asked her to tell me about the G. A. A. before I joined. Remember I was just an inquisitive freshman. We settled down for a long chat. Vv'ith much patience she explained that the G. A. A. stands for Girls' Athletic Association, composed of all girls. These girls participate in sports during the noon hour and after school. Since I was a very curious sort of person, I promised to attend the next meeting. At the next meeting I signed up for a number of sports. Later on I helped with the concession stand and sold candy, hot dogs, pop, and popcorn at the games. The next week our basketball games started: and, of course, I was on the team known as the Aimers. We won the championship, but we really had a tough time of it. I participated in all the available sports during my fresh- man year. Since I enjoyed it so much the iirst year, I continued my membership the next year. But wait-I'm getting ahead of my story. At the end of the iirst year a banquet was held, and they awarded C's like the one on my sweater. Medals and numerals were also given to all those who had earned enough points. Ten points are given for every game participated in and one hundred points for making the interclass teams, Since this is a very interesting organization I joined every year. In my junior year I received this letter which I proudly display. This year I am trying to get a chevron which represents fifteen hundred points. Well, I guess I have explained everything to you. I must be on my way. BETTY FOLK ..,9 9..
