Dianne Krause, president. Arlene Pfalzgraf, secretary. Beulah Smith, treasurer. This year the Girls' Athletic Association of O. H. S. has been quite successful. Each of the 28 high school girls participated in the G. A. A. Mrs. Vellema, primary teacher, was chosen to serve as advisor. Early last fall, the new members, Joan Culver, Donna Dethardt, Marilyn Launders, Eunice Shrank, Betty Shrank, Lavelda Stafford, Olive McClain, Rona Achterberg, and Hannelore Schwichtenberg, were duly initiated into the organization. We organized bowling teams and bowled several times throughout the year. Other sports in which we took part were: baseball, dancing, basketball, skating, and volley ball. This year we organized a regular girls' basketball team, with Mr. Clements as our coach. We played Lomira and Lutheran Academy girls' teams, but our girls lost both times. The only trouble was lack of experience, so next year we're sure the girls will get much farther. --:(22b

Mr. Robert Sommer, our new instructor, arrived on December 2, 1945, to take over his duties. We appreciate having this fine musician working wth us. We are now practcing the following selections: Drums and Cymbals, Victory, and Teamwork, which wil be given at the tournament at Columbus, on May 4, and at our spring concerts. - |21) -

In one of these groups were two freshmen girls, Donna and Joan. They polled the most votes, and became the new cheerleaders. In other years, cheerleaders have been at least three in number; therefore, the student council voted to choose another group of two to supplement the first chosen group. Myra and Gloria were then chosen. Together, the four cheerleaders did a splendid job of arousing school spirit. We hope that whoever is elected next year will carry on the job as well. - •{23)3-
