WWW I'll I 3:55. EIRL'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Plainville's Gtris' Athletic Association got off to an early start this year. The officers elected were Annaree Potter, president; Rita Graft vice president.- Nancy Boude, secretary; Betty Blacktord, treasurer; Rosemary Mc- Cracken, publicity chairman; Carol Thomas, point chairman. We were fortunate in having Mrs. Marjorie Pollock as our club adviser. This was Mrs. Pollock's first year at Plain- viiie and with the G. A A. The club flourished greatly under her capable supervision and supply of new ideas. At the first board meeting plans were made for the year. Mrs, Pollock introduced speeds ball as a new sport, and now it has grown to be a definite part of the G. A. A. curriculumi Later in the year plans were made for our annual dance which was held in Ianuary and was called The Lassies' Leap. This dance proved to be one of the more successful dances of the year. Managers and captains of the various sports were also chosen at the first board meeting. These were: Marian Roessier, bowling and archery; Rita Grai, basketball; Anita Thomas, speedball and swimming; Mary Metz, ping pong, badminton and tennis; Marion Boewer, baseball; Betty Blackiordl volleyball; Fay Rushart, riding; Nancy Boude, biking and hiking. By the point system. quite a few 35 freshmen received their pins and many of the 01d members were awarded with guards and letters. In the fail, the girls played speedbali, which as a new sport, was certainly enjoyed by everyone; even with all the bruised skins and skinned elbOWs. The basketball tournaments began in No- vember and the captains and teams were Chosen. The captains were Rita Graf, Geneva Amburqy, Donna Lou Meyers, Fay Rushart, Nancy Boude, and Rosemary McCracken. Rita Grai's team emerged as champions with Faye Bushart's as runner up. In the spring, the girls participated in vol; leybail and basebaii. These major sports added the last 20 or 40 points to some of the girls records and enabled them to receive their respective rewards. On May 15th the annual G A, A. Play Day was held, to which the Terrace Park, Milford, and Madeira groups were invited. This event is always a grand success and leads to a more friendly competitive spirit among the schools. The enthusiasm shown by the girls in their participation of the sports has helped our organization to maintain the name of being the largest Club in the school.
