STUDENT COUNCIL The 1954-55 Matamoras High SchoolStudentCounci1held its first regular meeting on September 22 with these capable officers in charge: President Fred DeGroat Vice-President 908222, Jim Wheaton Secretary WK ff' Q, E Carol Ewbank Treasurer 5 ' Gail Caskey Sergeant-at-Arms I f Jack Meany One of our projects for this year was to invite the Milford General Organization to send repre- sentatives to our meeting. Another project which the school plant committee is taking care of, is making fences to protect the lawn. The faculty has asked the Student Council to help in making our school more orderly, especially between classes, and we have done our best to cooperate with them. The faculty has also asked us for suggestions as to how the money which is received from school pictures, should be spent. One of our most important projects this year is the passing of three constitutional amendments concerning our elections. We feel that these amendments will make our elections more meaningful and will help our Student Council to run better.

SOCCER The Matamoras Bulldogs had a very successful season, winning five games, losing one, and tying two, The Bulldogs had a very strong line composed of Mike DeAngelo, Butch Lemon, and Elmer Masurack at wings, Mickey Quick and Terry Abbott at inside, and Ted Miller at center forward. The backfield was a great help to the line in the winning cause. Fred DeGroat, Buckey Quick, Jim Wheaton, and Julius Urban filled the halfback slots, Denny Laizure, Clare Ross, and Jim Benson alternated at fullbacks, while Cow Bodine had a magnificent year in the goal.

Captain Chuck Coxe, led his team on the Door on December 3, for the first game of the season, with Hawley.

The outfield shapes up with Jim Benson in lefrfield, Mickey Quick in center, and Clare Ross in right. The pitchers will beJim Wheaton, Denny Laizure, and Ted Miller, and catching will be Fred DeGroat. All those boys are lettermen so the Matties have an experienced team for Coach Purdue to work with. 0 BM N LEFT TO RIGHT: Toni Billman, Linda Ryder, Carol Ewbank, Barbara Blackman, Beverly Ramsey, Donna Gillette, Marlene Hartwig.

This is one of the cheers that will always be a part of M. H. S. Eight girls, including our acrobatic mascot, Jileen Kalin, formed the faithful cheerleading squad to keep the crowds in high spirits. Dressed in bright red corduroy jumpers and white blouses with navy blue gambler bow ties, they deftly led the cheering crowds. Two of the cheerleaders will be graduating this year, and they leave the squad wishing their colleagues the best of luck. 'nf X4 Xl!! F'GHr C iuk A B Bs.
