Boys' Baseball. FIRST ROW: Left to Right: Dwight Alton, Kenneth Nuzum, Donald Grandgenett, Robert McCracken, Jack Little, Jimmie Beers. SECOND ROW: Bill Hari, Harlan Gahm. Donald Bohall. George O'Day, Dwight Terry, Robert Maloy, Harry Mikklelon, Coach - Mr. Yalonka. Little Sioux opened with an ll-6 win over Blencoe. In his debut as a pitcher, Freshman Maloy lost of Moorhead. Modale won by a question- able triple in the last inning. Mondamin bowed 8-7 and Whiting, section- al tournament favorites, was defeated by Little Sioux 6-Z. With only a days rest, Little Sioux lost to Castana 6-4. In the pitching department, Beers and Maloy lacked the experience of Grandgenett. Donnie was credited with all three wins and is ranked as one of the best interscholastic pitchers in the state of Iowa. Respectively, bat- ting honors went to Beers, Alton, Grandgenett, Maloy and Nuzum. Grandgenett hit Sioux's home run against Castana. Each and every member deserve the credit accorded them for raising Little Sioux from just another team to one of the best in Harrison County. From Coach Zelonka, Superintendent Daniels, teaching staff, and students-- Thanks Boys! 27'

Yell Leaders LEFT TO RIGHT: Joanne Mikkleson, Patty Warren, Goldie Taylor, Inset: Pat Hari. The members of the Little Sioux high school elected yell-leaders for the basketball squads at the beginning of the season. They are: Patty Warren to represent the Freshman class, Goldie Taylor for the Sophomore class, Joanne Mikkleson for the Junior class, and Pat Harl for the Senior class. The student body appreciates the efforts of the cheerleaders in leading the cheering sections both at home and at out-of-town games and wishes to com- mend them for their efficiency and good sportsmanship. They have been very successful in lifting the morale of our teams at the most critical times. The yell-leaders feel, however, much credit is due to the student body for the sup- port they have given. Their costurnes are royal blue ballerina skirts with white sweaters and caps. These added the bit of color needed to correspond with the pep and zip of the students of Little Sioux High School. 26

The basketball season for the girls cannot be considered a success when based on games won. In spite of the many reverses, the girls did not quit, and we think their play at the end of the season showed vast improvement. The second team did quite well in their games and we expect them to carry on next year. They won from Salix QSt. Josephsl twice and lost a thriller to Moorhead seconds by 3 points. The varsity won twice from Modale during the season, once by 3 points and the other by 8 points. They were defeated by Mondamin in the County Tournament and by Dunlap in the Girls' Sectional. The year was not one of victories, but we feel that they have learned many new things and that the team showed marked improvement as the season pro- gressed. They wish to thank Mr. Daniels, the coach, Miss Nazum, the chaper- one, and the student body for their fine support during the season. 28
