Encourages Fitness And Character Dedicated to the ideal that physical activities should not be restrictive, the members of the Girls, Athletic Association strive to represent Norland with outstand- ing athletic teams. The girls, already proficient in many sports, strive to improve their own abilities while creat- ing further interest in feminine participation in ath- letics. The sole requirement of this organization is an interest in sports activities. Among the teams the G.A.A. sponsors are volleyball, basketball, softball and bad- minton. In addition to this major project the Association initiated several other activities this year. In the fall, the club sponsored the Sports Day program and the sale of beat tags for a football game. The members volunteered to assist the junior high schools as referees for their sports events, and a bake sale to raise funds for athletic equipment was conducted. The highlight of the year was the Mother and Daughter Banquet on May 25, at which time awards and letters were given to active participants and the new officers were installed for the coming year. , .. , -' v . , .

Library Club Utilizes Dewey Decimal System Functioning as an indispensable facet of Miami Nor- land is its library. However, the library would not be able to perform so efficiently Without the aid of a hard- working organization, the Library Club. The Library Club was created to assure the library of an industrious, well-qualified staff. This organization is open to any student with an acceptable academic average and a genuine desire to serve the school. The club assists the librarians in all facets of opera- tion. The assistants work throughout the school day checking and stamping books and performing varied miscellaneous tasks. Miss Kern and Mrs. Lowery, c0- sponsors of this club, provided the staff With fine leadership and advice. Since this organization is not primarily a profit- LIBRARY CLUB OFFICERS-M.

Lettermen Serve School With Fervent Spirit Unquenchable spirit pervaded the Lettermean Club this year as the outstanding athletes again endeavored to render their services to the school. As projects, the members sponsored the bus trips to the Edison and Pompano football games, sold beat tags, and conducted their annual car wash as a service to students and faculty. A favorite project of the Club, carried over from last year, is the establishment of a Jrecord board in the gymnasium which bears the inscription of the current statistics and holders of school records. The athletic letter, which is earned by exhibiting superior qualities in a varsity sport, is a prerequisite for membership. Each letterman directs his energy toward the common goal and acts in accordance with the LETTERMEN'S CLUB OFFICERS-W Whittaker Secre- characteristics attributed to the sportsman he represents tary; M.
