Girls’ Sports Build Health Senior G. A. A. Mildred Lowman........................................President Dorothy Critzer......................................Sec.Treas. Miss Hile. Miss Dennis.................................Advisers BOTH G. A. A. ORGANIZATIONS WERE HANDICAPPED BY THE RESIGNATION OF MISS HILE. At the end of the first semester, Miss Hile left West Carrollton to teach in Bethany College, West Virginia. For six weeks there was no regular physical education teacher. Girls who had begun to earn points toward their G. A. A. letters were unable to finish. Consequently no letters will be awarded this year. Likewise the fact that so many older girls are now working after school has interfered with regular meetings. Three parties have been given — a Christmas party, a farewell for Miss Hile, and a joint Hi-Y and G. A. A. dance. With Miss Dennis as the new director, the girls are now enjoying baseball and other spring sports. Junior G. A. A. Blanch® Penwell...........................................................President Wanda Boyer..........................................................Vice-President Nancy Zehrung.......................................................... Sec.Treas. Miss Hile. Miss Dennis.....................................................Advisers JUNIOR G. A. A. HAS MORE THAN DOUBLED ITS MEMBERSHIP. On Sept. 22 the younger group organized with seventeen members. Immediately the girls started earning points for their letters by playing volley ball, soccer, dodge ball, and by tumbling. Their work was also stopped when Miss Hile left. Since the arrival of Miss Dennis, however, they have reorganized with forty seventh and eighth grade members. Junior G. A. A. had a Christmas party and another big feed in March. But even feeds don't have clear sailing anymore. The question is where to get the ration points for weiners! Row 1 — Bush, Stevens, Link, M.

Victor Pfeiffer.................................Program Chairmen Mr. Cribley................................................................Adviser HI-Y TRIES TO UPHOLD CHRISTIAN STANDARDS AND PRINCIPLES. We urge our members to attend church regularly. Each Hi-Y meeting is opened with a devotional service. Discussions give a chance for intelligent thinking about civic, religious and social responsibilities. Hi-Y has helped to bring about a realization of the necessity for clean, healthful bodies. One of the most impressive services of the year was the induction service for new members under the supervision of Mr Soule, the County Hi-Y Secretary. We have had three good speakers: Dr. Staton, Mr. Rosnagle, and Rev. Long who showed pictures of our national parks. Our president, Gerald Hurley, was sent as a representative to the State Hi-Y Conference and also serves as secretary to the County Hi-Y. HI-Y IS NOT ENTIRELY SERIOUS. FELLOWS. DO YOU REMEMBER: Initiation of new members. Rockie really got it! The time the Black Knights entertained us at their cabin. All the Hi-Y pins on girls around school. Our basketball game. Some of the fellows weren't in training. The game room we never fixed up. Wolfing at district conferences. Expressions of bewilderment and confessions in the dark room. It's a wonder there isn't more blackmail going on around school. Pag© Thirty

Music Maintains Morale MR. WEST FACED MANY DIFFICULTIES IN THE DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC THIS YEAR. Due to gas rationing the state music contests had to be dropped. It was difficult to maintain the unity of a group with students leaving for work or the Service, with families moving in and out. NEVERTHELESS WE CAN BE PROUD OF SEVERAL DEFINITE ACCOMPLISHMENTS Junior Band members were promoted to keep Senior Band well balanced. A variety of good music was learned, including service songs. The young string players developed markedly. THREE PUBLIC PERFORMANCES HAVE BEEN GIVEN. Twice on the football field the band presented the pageant, Uncle Sam in Review. The chorus gave the operetta, Rose of the Danube, and all instrumental groups gave a spring concert. The chorus, under the direction of Mrs. Server, will also furnish the music for Baccalaureate.
