The fifty girls in the Team were under the capable leadership of jo Ann Campbell, captaing Shirley Cavanaugh, senior lieutenant: Jeannine Soderstrom, junior lieu- tenant: and Gerda Kading, sophomore lieu- tenant. Miss Greenlee, the sponsor, played a very active part in the directing of the Drill Team. The uniforms that the girls wore consisted of red letter-sweaters, white blouses, skirts, anklets, and gloves. Saddle shoes were the usual style of footwear. The captain and the lieutenants were set apart from the rest of the group by their white letter-sweaters. If you watched any of the performances of the Drill Team this year, you will remember that some of the formations were unique. In Thlhf ty-six each game the girls formed the traditional L g a different type was made each time. Among these were the block L and the double L. At the game during the Halloween season, the Team with the assistance of the Band formed a pump- kin that smiled and then frowned. The girls marched in the Mardi Gras Parade. The formation they used was a large L. This was quite different from the usual double file straight line procedure. For the big event Homecoming, the Drill Team at the pre-game ceremonies formed the queen's initials - M.M. During the half time, they formed a revolving water wheel while the Band played Down by the Old Mill Stream . On some of the practice mornings when the old north wind blew, there were empty spaces in the ranks, but the majority of the girls showed up tired and cold, but ready to make their classmates proud of the L.H.S. Drill Team. BEEZ-MOUSEL -- DR. W. L. SCOTT

The purposes are to provide a whole- some program of physical education activities for all to enjoy. It gives a girl a chance to develop her abilities and get along with others. The girls worked hard to earn G. A. A. points. Four points were given for each hour of sports BENNETT BOX COMPANY activity. Many girls earned the necessary five hundred and fifty points for a letter and the one thousand points for a state pin. Heading the list of activities were bowling, volley ball, and basketball. Other sports of almost equal popularity were tennis, tumbling, badminton, and softball. Some girls worked hard with officiating volley ball and basketball games. A few passed their intramural official test. Night of Champs was the big highlight of the year. This gave the girls an opportunity to show their ability and compete with the other classes. Basketball, volley ball, and tumbling made up the program. The winning teams were presented with ribbons and trophies. Letters and state pins were awarded to the seniors at this time. Thirty-five
