William A Wirt High School - Sandscript Yearbook (Gary, IN)

II A. A. G.A.A.” stands for Girls’ Athletic Association. Any girl in high school may become a member by participating in competitive games or indulging in individual sports. Its ideal is to create good sportsmanship, not only among the different classes but also among all the Gary high schools. G.A.A. extends the regular gym-class accomplishments of calcsthenics, team games, and social dancing with planned social and recreational activities: Early last fall there was a hamburger fry (and now they call Mrs. Griffith Wimpy”). Throughout the yeai we have gone on hikes, sponsored victory dances after basketball games and matinee dances on Friday evenings, and tried our hand at bowling. By winning the intra-mural baseball tourney, the seniors finished earning points enough to be awarded a place on the POST-TRIBUNE plaque (for the fourth consecutive year). The annual banquet, which had Spring for its theme, was held May 29. Miss DeVol and Mrs. Griffith are our sponsors. Page Twenty-seven
