We GAA girls preparing to meet the Arabians. rls Find Athletics Interesting and Enjo able The Girls Athletic Association gave the girls an opportunity to take part in many different athletic contests. Through G.A.A., the girls had an opportunity to compete with girls from other schools in basketball and volleyball. Mrs. Schwarz- kopf was the sponsor of the G.A.A. Officers for the year were: Sue Hovermale, President, Darlene Armstrong, Vice- President, Patty VanHook, Secretary, and Sue Wood, Treas- urer. These girls also sold candy and sponsored a dance in an effort to finance their organization. The Shenandoah Pep Club was a big inspiration to the varsity and reserve basketball teams. They helped to increase school spirit by yelling and displaying posters and signs. The Pep Club traveled with the team to distant points to show that we backed our team. The Pep Club's outfits were navy and gold tops with dark skirts to represent Shenandoah's school colors. The girls met during the activity period to learn new chants, cheers, and songs. The Pep Club also made up skits for the pep sessions. The Pep Club sponsored a soc-hop and sold candy in an effort to make money for their club. The Pep Club didn't officially have a sponsor, but the varsity cheerleaders organiz- ed and directed the Pep Club during meetings, practices, and at ball games.

VJ, Beef Many factors are essential to the development of a good athlete. The applause of an approving audience, the roar of a crowd, the chiding of disappointed fans, the winning of a first place trophy, or a crushing defeat by a rival all make sports exciting. An athlete's performance provides entertainment and an emotional release for the audience, who is the first to criticize and the first to recognize skill. For the cheerleader, it is an opportunity to show her school spirit and the enthusiasm of the student body and community. To the coach it is a final test of fundamental skills and teamwork. To the athlete himself, it is a total performance of the skills he has learned through long hours of practice. Hard work, endless criticism and glory face an athlete as he competes in interscholastic sports. thletic
