Although this is Stephens City's first volley ball team. great interest is being shown in the sport. America's future is dependent upon her youth.

7 L 'fl ' 9 PUPIL TRANSPORTATION We are proud of the fact that Stephens City High School is a consolidated school and, by far, the largest school in the county. Pupils are brought here to complete their high school education from the following smaller county schools: Armel, Carpers Valley, Clearbrook, Greenwood, Hayiield. Kernstown. Miller, Mt. Airy, Round Hill and White Hall. In addition to the high school pupils coming from these schools, pupils are being transported to Stephens City, who originally attended other neighboring schools which are now closed. Of a total of 518 pupils enrolled in our school, 353 for 68.2WJ are being transported to and from school daily. To carry out this program of transportation, two modern buses serve the school and make a total of six trips, twice daily. This means that the buses carry an average load of 59 pupils per trip. One of the buses is county-owned and is operated by Mr. L. E. Cornell. The other is owned by Mr. M. K. Sandy and operated by his son, John. The first busload reaches school at 7:50 A. M. each morning and the last one in the afternoon leaves at 4: 10 P. M. Some pupils have a long day at school, but they are giving their support to a cooperative effort whereby they, and many others. can attend a four-year accredited high school and hence complete an up-to-date high school program. Mr. H. L. Orndoff, Caretaker of Buildings. Mickey has served faithfully, since the fall of 1931, and to him we MR, ORNDOFF owe many thanks for taking the bite out of cold mornings. AYLOR

In later years, an association of athletic clubs was founded in New York City. Several years ago, Stephens City High School began a Girls' Athletic As- sociation. Last school year, 1940-41. the G. A. A. was reorganized under the sponsorship of Miss Sue Pullins. The Club's sole activity was softball. This year, anothersoftball team was organized under the captainship of Carmen Luttrell. The team payed a number of successful and interesting games. and showed true sportsmanship through the season. - -SUE PULL1Ns ., 'fs
