--Sunsational Summer it’s Showtime A 11 too early it came im.—summer’s end. Yet iere was something dif- ■erent in the air on the .ight of August 27. So jifferent, and so unexplain- able. With a renewed spirit 15 jeppy cheerleaders sur- irised one of the largest rowds in Meet-the- Iiquad history. As the girls ranced through the lands, chanting, “Here we .ome, and here we go, ind every one has got to know that we are Beall High,” Advisor Mrs. Patsy Filsinger bubbled as she watched her “first” cheer- leaders spread their en- thusiasm through the stands. During Coach Gerard Calhoun’s traditional in- troductory speech, a few of the guys demonstrated off-season conditioning drills. When Carl Schurg soloed the clean press of 150 lbs., he mistakenly picked up a barbell with only 55 lbs. on it. He grinned at the ease of his lifts, and the fans quickly realized what was going on. Feature twirler and captain, Melinda Sivic, con- fidently strutted and turned and tossed as she faced the applauding crowds. She knew that only 10 yards away were the underclass majorettes doing their thing to Love A Rainy Night. Melindadaz- zled the crowd with her sword routine, and no one even noticed that the daring entertainer had tape on the blades. Chris Tyler, who went to summer camp at St. Francis College, led a“new look” of Silk Squaders onto the field. Sporting large flags, made by Mrs. Peggy Whitaker, their enthusiasm carried as they whipped the banners through the air. Parents of JV footballers watched as their sons donned the blue and gold for the first time. A 15- minute scrimmage ended with a 0-0 tie. Suddenly Beth Miller’s Corps Atten-Hut” brought the Belles to atten- tion. The 41-member drill team performed four routines, even though they were allotted only 10 minutes. The Belles end- ed their show with a high kick routine to the music of Chattanooga Choo- Choo, much to the crowd’s delight. To wrap up the show, the varsity squad knocked heads” for 20 minutes. The 1982 season was un- folded. It had only just begun, and already kids were talking about their next performance.

As the leaves changed to vibrant reds, golds, and oranges, the familiar Big Savage Mountain scene caught everyone’s atten- tion no matter where they were, or what they were into. School weeks usually followed a regular pattern beginning with the Mon- day Blues. But when the long awaited bell rang at 3:05 Friday, it was time to forget weekly worries, and live it up with friends. Friday night the foot- ball arena rocked to the cheers of the cheer- leaders, pep club, band, drill team, and excited fans as the renewed school spirit electrified every- one. One hundred and nine- ty juniors spotted their weekends with dates of surprise birthday parties for close classmates. One of the many, given for Amy Spataro, was held at Ma- plehurst Country Club where she celebrated with over 30 members of her class. For Chris Brady, Brett Davis, Dave Moore, Doug Hafer, and Brad Barmoy, Sunday afternoons were slotted for their weekly football games on the field at FSC. They usually played touch, but when girls dropped by, a friendly game turned into “smear the queer” and a broken arm for Doug. The harvest holidays gave us a chance to spend time with families following traditions, watching the Flailoween pa- rade, or gathering around the T.V. rooting for the Pittsburgh Steelers as they thumped their oppo- nents or making excuses when they lost.

Fall also brought a sea- son of anticipation, with girls anxiously awaiting elections of football, soc- cer, and Frostburg fire queens. And, along with the fun, fall was a time to think about future plans. PSAT, SAT, and ACT test dates were spent cramming for the tests and filling out applications.
