G. A. A. The G. A. A. meets in the gymnasium third hour on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. -Classes are divided into basketball teams, which play against each other to gain practice for the tournament in which many G. A. A. girls participate. This year, besides the basketball tournament, the girls held baseball, archery, and tennis tournaments. To wind up the G. A. A. 1946-1947 year, the girls held their annual banquet in May. At that time the letters were awarded and the graduates were honored. Miss Teachout is the advisor. Baseball Coach Herring is very optimistic about the 1947 baseball season. We hope for as successful a season as we had last year; however, we had nine wins and three defeats. Top men were Jerry Alexander, John Hazley, Bill Bearss, Jim Regier, Dick Cain, Jerry Toles, and Ralph Fernandez, who all but hit 300. Jerry Toles, Cain, and Ralph Fernandez lost only one game each with their very speedy pitching. This year we find we have lost these ex- cellent players but with ’John’ working with the men he has we can expect some definite results.
