Pep Society HE PEP SOCIETY was first formed in l922 under the leadership of Miss Dorothy Smith, physical education teacher at that time. The group was active in a number of ways in its early life, but died out from 1926 until it was reorganized in l93l. At the suggestion of David Tucker along with Miss Rachel Coogle, a group of Senior girls formed the new club and opened it to under-graduate students. Mrs. Elizabeth Peck is the present sponsor. The word Hpepn stands for: P- personality, E- enthusiasm, P- popu- larity. The aim of the club is to support school activities and promote school spirit. The club held an initiation the first semester of this year admitting 30 girls. The annual dance was given April 5 in the Girls Gym. OFFICERS President ........... ...,........................
