AHS Welcomes Manuel as Fellow Colt This year Arlington High School opened wide its corral gates to welcome as one of the fellow Colts Manuel Osvaldo Diez Esteves, Argentine foreign exchange student. Manuel arrived at the Greyhound Bus Station in Dallas at 6:50 a.m. on August 29 to meet his new American family, the Jack Harris’s. Burdened with guitar and suitcases, he was greeted at his new home to the strains of the Arlington High fight song. He immediately gained many new friends with his winning smile and beautiful serenading. Manuel and his guitar made many appearances at various school activities throughout the year. He saw his first football game at Farrington Field and became well acquainted with the sport through experience. This was one thing he had always wanted to do. Manuel will remember his many experiences and good times with the Colts, but they also will remem- ber him and the joy he brought to Arlington. So remember Manuel, The Eyes Of Texas Are Upon You.” is easy to see that Manuel eagerly participates in the chores of merican family life as he and Jackie Harris wash the family car. During his stay in Arlington, Manuel enjoyed numerous American pastimes. One that he particularly liked was the riding of the tricky skateboard. 13

Pep Boosters Create Seven lively personalities combined with lots of hard work resulted in the 1964-65 Colt cheerleading squad. Under the guidance of their sponsor, Miss Melba Roddy, the cheerleaders endeavored to boost school spirit by displaying clever posters, dreaming up original ideas, and animating the pep rallies every Friday. This year in honor of the traditional Grand Prairie game, the cheerleaders held a Mysterj Person Hunt” in which students approached one an- other with What’s the good word?” Two people were appointed mystery persons” and they awarded Homecoming game tickets to lucky inquirers. A part of the weekly routine of the seven cheer- leaders is selling ribbons which provide funds to send next year’s cheerleaders to SMU. In addition to yelling at games and pep rallies, boosting spirit, and selling ribbons, the cheerleaders sponsor dances in the cafeteria after the home games. They also spend a good deal of time decorating the goal posts to further increase the fans’enthusiasm. Miss Melba Roddy hands to Bo Brown a cake which was donated to the football team by a group of girls wanting to boost school spirit. Oh my goodness, they’re after me! cries Susan Tubb as the southern belle while Rebel, Susan Wine, and Arlington Colt, Vickie Eblen, vie for her hand. 14 “Oh Mommy, Mommy, please tell mewhat we’re going to have for dessert,” pleads Susan Tubb to Vickie Eblen.
