To top the year off we gave a banquet for the basketball boys. the cheerleaders, the faculty, and the Board of Education. The gym and tahle decorations, as well as the place cards, carried out the basketball theme. lfileene Phegley had charge of the decorations, and the program was planned by Phyl- lis Peek and Charity Schultz. i t i The Ovejitas, organized three years ago, have given many pleas- ing drills during the intermission periods at the basketball games. This year -Ioan Logue and Nor- ma Stewardson, two of our cheer- leaders, held the offices in the club. joan was leader and president, and Norma was secretary. The ap- parel for this year was white pleat- ed skirts, short sleeved blouses, and anltlets. One of our most interesting and colorful drills was given at Christ- mas time. Wie carried colored lights and formed a Christmas tree. Bells accompanied us as we sang jingle Bells. At the Neoga game on Ifeh- ruary 14 one of the features of our drill was the formation of a large heart with an arrow through it. W'e had added red paper hearts to our costumes and we sang Let Me Call You Sweetheart.
