GIRLS GLEE CLUB There were two Kiris' glee clubs in O. H. S. In 1938-39. This first was for experienced or out- standing: voices: tlu second for training:. Only the first glee club sang: at programs and contests, but the girls in the? second group are the hope of the future. The first group met three times weekly: the other, twice. Long blue robes with white collars were worn at nil performances by the group. The girls wore often invited to sing at various churches, as well as at school programs. For many years the O. H. S. Glee Club has been outstanding at contests, and because of the good work, the group has taken several nice trips. Front row left to right—Hetty Jnrolwon. Mary Lou Wollen.

The entire student body chose the cheer leaders, Mary Lou Vandiver, Bette Jayne Martin, and Evaleen Mueller, alternate, who have led the yells at all football and basketball games. These girls have lots of initiative and natural pep. Hallies were sponsored by the Pop Club, under the direction of Mr. Hector. At the allies, the band played and helped along the songs and yells. The club costumes were black slacks and white shirt blouses. One chief object is to increase school •’spirit.” G. A. A. The Girls AtMetic Association, which was or- ganized In O. H. S. three years ago. works in accord- ance with the state regulations and requirements. Under Miss Steven’s direction, the girls played basketball, volley ball, Nebraska ball, and kitten ball In season. Groups are chosen each year to at- tend a district play day held at various towns. Blue gym suits are the girls’ official uniforms. State awards, pins, and O. H. S. awards and letters arc given for various G. A. A. achievements. The training rules are simply rules for gen- eral good health and are formed as habits by the girls. Thirty-One
