Fifteen girls were initiated into G.A.A. this year increasing the number of members to fifty-one. Members participated in volleyball, basketball, medicine ball, bowling, swimming, and golf. They took lessons in shooting under the supervision of the Rifle Club. A combined G.A.A.-Pep Club pajama party was held in the gym after a sock hop. Entertainment for the evening included two spine-tingling movies, hide and seek throughout the school, and a game of basketball. The girls took a trip to Camp Dean for practice in outdoor skills. Selling candy at noon was one of the moneymaking projects. The awards were set up on a national basis. Points were received by attending meetings and taking part in athletics. A girl who earned 75 points was given a pin, or one earning 150 points was presented a letter. The advisor was Miss Jordan. The active officers get clubs from the cage to practice golf.

This seasonal rally included a speaker on marriage, a style show, and an interesting movie. A candlelight ceremony followed by singing brought the rally to a close. A big event was the party given by the F.F.A. boys, with entertainment in the form of basketball, volleyball, ping-pong, and other games. April 12 was an important day for the nine new initiates. They dressed in good clothes, wore aprons, put doilies on their heads, and carried kitchen utensils to symbolize their aims. That night the club enrollment became twenty-two as these nine girls were made official members during a candlelight ceremony. The making of Easter tray favors for the hospital was a worthwhile service. The mother-night-out proved very successful. Each girl took her mother out to dinner and picked up the check. The capable F.H.A. officers: Pres. G. Phelper, Treas. S. Gengler, Sec. B. Nelson, and V. Pres. N. Storzbach sort old clothes for the use of the Good Will Industry. 15

The twenty-three members participated in a Postal Match and defeated marksmen all over the country. Three members achieved the rank of Sharpshooter: Joe Barker, Bill Anderson, and Ken Hagar. The capable officers, K. Hagar, Sec.-Treas.; K. Price, V. Pres.; and J. Barker, Pres., set up the sighting scopes for a shooting session.
