The New Paris Girls Athletic Association, a member of the state association, was organized in the New Paris High School on March 1, 1945. The organization was founded for the purpose of encouraging social activity in the field of sports and sportsmanship. The officers for this year are: Marilyn Shannon, president, Irma Gall, vice president: Bonnie Neff, secretary, Susie Lutes, treasurer, and Mrs. Hollar, sponsor. On November 24 we sponsored a G. A. A. skating party. Some of our projects were selling concessions at the Jefferson and Wakarusa basketball games, and selling basketball pins. We have a system of earning points which enables us to earn our school letters. The points are earned by individual activities and attend- ing play nights which are held at the high school once each week. The senior members also receive an award at the Mother-Daughter Banquet. A tourney was held between the four classes. The sophomores and seniors met in the finals, the seniors being the victors.

Through its activities we hope to promote interest in reading good literature. We have two mottoes which express our ideals: 'Forward With Books' and Service .

Miss Crlpe is club sponsor. Each year two senior girls are appointed as assistant librarians on the basis of their past record of library service. Thyra Neff and Roma Herrington were chosen this year because of their outstanding contributions in helping to pro- mote the surnrner library program during the past years. A new project was begun this year. Each girl received a program book in the club's colors--navy blue and white--with an outline of each meeting's program. Our library emblem is a navy blue 'L' with a narrow white border. As our part of the nation-wide celebration of Book Week, a 'Dr IQ' radio program was given in the assembly. A story telling contest was sponsoredin connection with Book Week. Due-to the large number of entrants, it was necessary to divide the contestants into two sections. The winners of the junior-senior section were Evelyn VanDiepenbos, Betty Mishler, and Mary Lou Stuckman, Eleanor Cobb, Marilyn Miller, and Rosemary Reim- schisel won the freshman-sophomore division. The winners were presented with pins signifying their accomplishrnent. Also to commemorate Book Week, special story hours were held in each room of the Bethany and New Paris Grade Schools. The Library Club sponsored a movie 'Swiss Family Robin- son' on November 16. ln order to raise funds to carry on the activities oi the organization the following projects were undertaken: selling desserts and spices, con- cessions for the Leesburg basketball game and the second-teanftournament. Each year our club gives a worthwhile gift to the school. This year our pro- ject was to install four flourescent lights in the library.
