g.o.o. Every girl at Oakcrest is a member of the Girls' Athletic Association, the focal point of all athletic activities for girls. This year the G.A.A. added new activities to its usual function of awarding points to the participants in varsity and intramural sports. It presented an assembly, G.A.A.'s Wide World of Sports, staged a very successful mother-daughter activity night, and sponsored a scholarship fund for girls planning to maior in physical education. In short, the G.A.A. endeavored to stimulate interest in girls' athletics as a means of promoting character, leadership, and friendship on the part of the participants. g.a.a. officers left to right: Mrs. Helen Bolnick, faculty advisor, Sue Kaufman, secretary, Jackie Storhaug, vice-president, Peggy Reed, presi- dent, Betty Jo Barrett, treasurer. g.a.a. board left to right: Karen O'Shea, Linda Ciaba- toni, Cathy LeCompte, Cathy Lewman, Peg- gy Reed, Jackie Storhaug, Betty Jo Barrett, Sue Kaufman, Goldy Lieberman, Sharon Suprun, Janet Phy, Rosie Benson, Joyce Hires, Dottie Getty. at it Q- i it it z modern donce fl?
