Gur gym seems to be bursting with enthusiastic feminine S1DO1'tStC1'S. Some play basketballg others prefer badminton, ping pong, volleyball, or even softball, in season. The girls are from the ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades. Their interest is the foundation of the club. There are no officers, no dues, and no strict rules and regulations to be followed. Instead, the girls, numbering about one hundred, have created the club for enjoyment and recreation. They have sensed the keen thrill of competition. Miss McCoy, the ever competent adviser, feels that the spirit of any organization is the most important part. Certainly, there is spirit in the girls' sports organization.

But this unsuspecting little daydreamer doesn't realize that the cheerleaders job isn't everything it's made out to be. It's a lot of hard work.
