In the fall and spring, Miss Eastman, our new archery instructor, had 'a large number of participants and completed a successful season In all sports, tournament teams were organized in preference to interclass teams because better cooperation resulted. Many more girls came out this year for sports and playdays were organized to promote friendship and social contacts with other schools. Two new sports were offered this year -- soccer in the fall and track in the spring. The girls' athletic program culminated in the spring with the formation of the girls' athletic council. This group is composed of representative from each class organized for the purpose of setting a goal and suggesting objective toward which each girl may work both for herself and the common good of the school. A Point system and Constitution were drawn up by the committee which is composed of Ann Turner, Chairmang Mary Clouse, Theresa Domanico, June Southard, Betty D'eFlumer and Carmella Nunziato. The five following Senior girls were chosen as charter members. Ann Turner, Elizabeth Hotaling, Sylvia Augustine, Winifred Hammond and Angeline Conora. These Senior girls and committee of representatives initiated junior Deputies late in the spring with elec- tion of officers immediately followig. When one obtains 400 points. one must pass the approval of a pledge board, when one obtains 600 points, you receive a felt C and a seat on. the deputy board 5 at 1000 points, one obtains a chenille C the highest award the organization offers. One of the primary reasons of the organization has been to vary the pro- gram and to include every girl in junior and Senior High School, whether she is interested in sports or not and! i11 addition to stimulate school spirit. Cheerleading The cheerleaders should be given much credit for their untiring efforts in stimulating school spirit throughout the year. Theresa Domanico and Ehtel VVhile are the head cheerleaders for this year. Under their able direction, the thirty students worked diligently bringing into the Hudson Valley a new fad, jitterbug cheerleading. A cheerleader must work at least two years before he is eligible for a letter. He must follow the constitution which is set by the members. No other student organization requires as much skill and industry on the part of its members as does cheerleading. Those students who have made the grade are to be commended. Page Nineteen
