A. A. COUNCIL Standing: left to rzghl - S. Conkey, E. Gillespie, M. Gamblin, K. Bitzer. Not Shown: P. Freedman, S. Archibald, Harlow. Without competition there are no competitors is the way that the Athletic Association feels about the sports program at MacDuliie. To develop more interest in each class, there is a representative elected to suggest new ideas for activities and team captains chosen to help the spirit in the inter-mural competi- tion throughout the year. This fall saw a long standing tradition broken with the snowstorm 0-0 tie of the Northampton Hockey Team. The Hakes were coming down with the begin- ning whistle and were still falling at the last blast. MacDufHe came in second this year in the annual Field Day that is played with the city teams. We lost in an overtime play-off but it was agreed by all that 'everyone played her best. Four of our members made the all-city honorary team. Along with our Red Team captain, Phyllis Freedman, and our Blue Team captain, Sally Archibald, there are five other representatives to the council. The officers this year were: Marjory Gamblin, presidentg Kate Bitzer, vice-president, Susan Conkey, secretary-treasurer, Elsie- Gillespie, freshman representative, and Judy Harlow, junior school representative.

This year the Cheerleaders Corps has had a large number of enthusiastic members. The ten girls have cheered at the field hockey and basketball games with Northampton and Chaffee Schools. We got our new uniforms and mega- phones for which we have waited a long time. Under their captain, Elvira Draghetti, the cheerleaders hope to keep up the school spirit throughout the year.
