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

They chose Barbara Dorathy to serve as president for 1952-1953. The Band makes a number of appearances each year. This was no exception. For the flag raising ceremonies before each football game the Band played 'LThe Star Spangled Banner . This marching band of fifty-four members, led by the drum majorette Barbara Dorathy, provided entertainment between halves of all the home games. In the best Lyons tradition, the Band led the pep rally for Homecoming.
