Holly Stroud and Esther Miles received these awards for perfect attendance at games as well as high academic achievement. Most Outstanding Markette, as elected by the entire organization, was Senior Betsy Bossung. Each Markette received at least one award or prize for her contribu- tions to the organization. Freshman girls were offered a chance to enroll into the Markette training class at the beginning of the year. The first and second lieutenants were the teachers. I started out thinking if we get 50 per cent of those girls interested enough to try out it would be a wor- thwhile project, said Dorothy.

Both the Senior and Iunior Classes have received the opportunity to per- form in special shows and parades outside the regular season. I feel that the Iunior class is really close. We have been really lucky to have marched in the Astrodome, Hawaii and now London, said Michele. The new girls in Markettes worked hard to perfect their dance routines. Despite their lack of field experience, they added rather than detracted to the shows. I think the Sophomore Class is go- ing to be one of our best classes. We are only as strong as our youngest group. In this organization, each girl must be outstanding because we are all Varsity performers, said Dorothy. iii' by Laura Griffin and Mary Lynn Karvelas Markette flags flash on the field as the Markettes entertain the Mustangs fans during a pre-season football game.
