During all these years we were not very active in sports, having only three letter winning men. However, we have had a member on the debate team since our freshman year— -Carol Booth. We have been well represented in glee club. Girl Reserves, Hi-Y, and all ather social activities. The outstanding activities of this year were our J unior-Senior Banquet and Prom.
