Sirls cdlthletic (dissociation President Stell Leidholdt Secretary and Treasurer. Mary Ann De Jardin, Kathryn Guelzow Last fall the girls decided that something should be done to give the girls a chance to win an official “O ' as the boys do. With this idea in mind nine girls. Sara Geisthardt. Marian Burleton. Marie Scharschmidt, Lucille Collien, Arlene Dethardt, Mary Ann De Jardin, Ruth Dowidat, and Stell Leidholdt decided to form a Girls' Athletic Association. They met with Mr. Morton and drew up a constitution and point system. The organization lacked faculty guidance, and Stell Leidholdt deserves much credit for keeping it alive. Those girls who have earned an award for this year are: Marian Burleton, Lucille Collien. Kathryn Guelzow. and Marie Guelzow. North Fond du Lac G.A.A. girls entertained us and we expect to return it. We hope our G.A.A. will grow bigger and better next year. [16]

OAK LEAVES el Our Gheer headers It is very unusual for a school or student body to make much fuss over its cheer-leaders, but Oakfield High School had a trio of very unusual cheer-leaders this year. They deserve more than ordinary mention. These three girls with our basketball team made school history last winter. At the beginning of the basketball season, volunteers for cheer-leaders demonstrated their skill before the student body at assembly. Stell Leidholdt rceived the most votes and was elected cheer-leader, with Arlene Dethardt and Mary Ann De Jardin as her assistants. These girls were scared stiff when they gave their first yells, but that soon wore off. and after a lot of practice and hard work became real experts. The girls worked out clever actions to the old yells, giving them new life. They used Locomotive to advantage: demonstrated in You're Pep what the word really means; and every time they did Wiggle Waggle” the score was increased. When you’re up against Oakfield you’re upside down was one of the outstanding cheers. They received recognition wherever they went, and at the district tournament they stole the show from everybody but our team. All through the year these girls were very faithful, and hardly missed a game. It’s time we gave them a yell!!! YEA!!! [15]
