FOOTBALL The team got of? to a fairly good start this season under the eagle eye of Coach Norm Drew and Mana- ger Roger Griflin. Although the team did not capture any title such as the basketball squad did, they still deserve laurels for their work. Able playing of Jim Martin, Ray Bartnett, Junie Riggio, Don Scott, Ed Johns, Evie Hunt and Ken Cookson composed the mainstay ol the squad. The fellows put up a hard battle and deserve the praise of all Morganites.

THE GIRLS' FIELD HOCKEY TEAM The Girls' Field Hockey Team had a new coach this year, Miss Patricia Strange. There was a good turnout and everyone worked hard to make a good team. The team had a good season winning one game and tying two. Although the other games weren't victories for the Morgan girls, good spirit and sportsmanship were shown. The Seniors are sure to be missed next year.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL The girls really were full of pep and put up a good battle this season, just ask Mr. Fletcher, he'll tell you about every game and all about the girls that played. The first string had the experience of Sis Stannard, Nancy Chalker, Janie York, Lydia Pardo, Bev Pen- CHEERLEADE RS delton, and Betsy Dibble with the help of Jo-Jo Soderstrom and Joan Gladwin. Miss Strange did an excellent job as coach and Carol Smith as manager, the team showed a great improvement over last year and rate our appreciation for upholding Morgan traditions. At the start of school last autumn, the annual job of choosing a cheer- leader squad for the athletic sea- son was undertaken. As usual the job was not an easy one, but the g i r l s who succeeded certainly showed that they could fulfill all that was expected of them and much more. Again we had Sue Dibble and Jane York, representing the Senior and Junior classes, respectively. The 7 Sophomores proved they really were on the beam with Betsy Dibble, Beverly Pendleton, and Lydia Pardo as their representatives. The girls have many snappy cheers and put their hearts in their work, all in all Morgan School can be proud ofthe Cheerleaders of 1947-48.
