Pep Club The opening of the fall sports season, marked by Pep Club's kick-off dance, the annual Foot Ball, announced the beginning of a year of great change and progress in both the club's function and format. In order to allow its mem- bers to present their views and express opinions concern- ing the coming year, Pep Club held an open discussion meeting during the fall, an aid in planning the 1965-66 year to best suit the students' desires. Monthly Pep Club meetings were abandoned in favor of stressing attendance to sports events and increasing school spirit and sportsmanship. The selling of buttons, hats and homecoming tiger tails, as well as the addition of food sell- ing at games, were all services of Pep Club. Buses were provided as a means of transportation to away games, thus increasing student attendance and team support, a major fac- tor in this year's successful team victories. The spirit and enthusiasm of the Pep Club cheerleaders, coupled, with Pep Club sponsored rallies and the senior girls and boys cheer- ing section, also contributed to this success. Off the War- pathf' a New Trier-Evanston banquet, was given by the club to promote better relations between the two schools and to start a tradition of improving sportsmanshipf, said Mrs. Charlotte Berry, the club's sponsor. The dinner was held before the New Trier-Evanston game and gave girls from each school a chance to become acquainted on neutral ground. At the year's end, Pep Club changed its eligibility re- quirements for cheerleader selection and instituted an as- sembly to replace the Pep Club banquet. Thus, throughout its entire format, the 1966 Pep Club increased its usefulness to the entire student body, both in publicizing sports events and bringing about greater school spirit, and in bettering inter-school relationships.

L7 e'-, if 4' SUSAN SI-IOCKEY Chairman of the Reps To create a warmer atmosphere for all girls was the goal of Girls' Club under the leadership of President Jody Zacharias. With a tremendous variety of events spanning the entire academic year, the goal was accompli.shed. The activities began early in September with the Freshman- Senior Party, at which senior girls introduced freshman girls to the New Trier 'latmospheref' Entitled F, S. Bond, the bond between freshmen and seniors was strenth- ened immensely by the turnout. The Fall Charity Drive, with Tri-Ship as co-sponsor, sent clothing to Appalachia and Viet Nam. lnaugurating a new system of canvassing the township by advisory rooms, the one week Stop, Think, Given was highly successful and exceeded all previous clothing drives. VVith good spirit and enthusiasm, the annual lllagazine Drive, under the direction of Vice-President Fran llflclfin- ney, provided money for senior girls, scholarships. An as- sembly in December was held to announce the highest sell- ers in each class, the winners of stuffed animals and var- ious prizes. Une of the most successful and important events was Friendly TVeek, where each one, hopefully, met one. Using Enthusiasm and participation ended in accomplishment Hpairsu to get acquainted, great spirit prevailed throughout the week and was climaxed at the Friendly Banquet. Participation was the key to the lliother-Daughter Ban- quet held in February. The evening was completely sold out-one thousand ticket-holders attended the dinner with entertainment provided by pantomimist Bud Beyer. Leis were needed for the dinner, and the project of making them was opened to all girls. Excellent support and turn- out set a great atmosphere. ln the spring, the United Charities drive took place. Head Start, in coop-eration with Tri-Ship, netted about hve thousand dollars for various organizations around Chi- cago. The Fashion show, A Touch of VVizardry,', was held in May, and student models displayed the latest in surn- mer fashions. Jody Zacharias commented that the function of Crirls' Club is to serve the school. But far more than that, if the people involved, and l mean not merely the board and committees, but the girls of the school, enjoyed it, and if there's good atmosphere, good response will followf' The response was tremendous.
