Throughout the book, you’ll notice pictures showing people who aren’t perfect, but are trying hard to be. Anything is possible, but nothing is accomplished when we don’t try. Everyone has fallen ‘off of the horse” a few times, but unless we get back on, that fall will never do us any good. Making a mistake is nothing to be ashamed of. But if we keep making the same mistake over again, we haven’t learned any- thing. Everyone participating in sports must constantly try to im- prove themselves, to better the score. Perfection will be achieved only if every single person is trying his or her hardest and working together as a team. Even though clubs are fun they still involve hard work. Each individual needs to strive for perfection in order to help the club achieve its goals. Just as sports teams must work together, clubs also must work as a team. The fact that everyone makes mistakes is evident in the classroom. The teachers set goals for us each time they an- nounce when an assignment is due. It is then up to each individ- ual to try his hardest and to follow through. Setting goals and trying our hardest ar two key factors in getting closer to perfection. If you have a goal and try to achieve it, then you’re headed down the road to success. In everything we do, we need to be individuals and do our parts, but also work together as a team.

One might ask, “Why are students studying garbage in the classroom?” The purpose of the activity was to enhance skills in analysis and deductive reasoning. Each of the students brought to class his own garbage from home (the garbage was “clean,” of course), which was swapped with the garbage other students had brought. Then the investigation began. By sorting out the different types of products a family used, the students could determine the different lifestyles the people probably lead. A bag with a lot of diet soda pop cans and other low-calorie products would suggest the family members were watching their weight. A bag (Above) Vickie Alvarez compares trash with the type of environment It may have come from. (Right) Amy Valdez observes as Mrs. Peggy Peters points out the number of calories In a can of soda pop. “Garbo- logy”. the study of garbage, was one of the projects students com- pleted In Mrs. Peters’ Arizona Government class. with many empty disinfectant spray cans and furniture polish bottles would suggest a family was very neat, and kept a clean house. The size of a family could be determined by the number of people the food products were designed to feed, or if there was a baby in the family when empty diaper boxes and baby food jars were discovered. The students were hesitant at first to rummage through the garbage, making comments such as “Do we really have to do this?” Soon the project was underway and comments such as “Are we having fun, yet?” and “I have to do this right before lunch!” rung through the air. But, in a short time most were participating with enthusiasm. 9 Students never stop being themselves (Top Left) AFS students Sandy Unger, Shannon DeGroot, Michelle Whitmore, and Tressa Tice listen intently to the speaker of the day.

In P.E. classes The first Student Council project for this school year was CPR week. During the first weeks of the year, all the boys’ and girls’ physical education classes were taught an important life- saving technique —CPR. CPR, or Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscita- tion is used in medical emergencies to restore the breathing and heartbeat to a person whose vital body functions have stopped. The classes spent five days (one full school week) learning CPR. They practiced on a special training mannequin called “Resusci-Annie.” Also a “Resusci-baby” was used in teaching CPR for infants. The students learned the differences in tech- niques for reviving infants as compared to adults. They also learned to perform the procedure properly so as not to cause harm to the person they may someday have to revive. Ms. Sara Williams, a paramedic from the Casa Grande Fire Department, instructed the girls’ P.E. classes in CPR. Mr. Don Decker, also a paramedic with the local fire department, was one of the instructors for the boys’ P.E. classes. Each of the P.E. coaches also lent a helping hand in teaching. They feel CPR is a very important skill to know. The students also felt it was important. Kim King comment- ed, “It was very educational. Now I know how to save someone in case of such an emergency.” Most students shared the same opinions with Kim, and with Morty Erickson, who stated, “Knowing CPR, I am confident I can be of help in an emergen- cy.” The participants were also educated in saving a person from choking. Brian Goddard, a freshman, stated, “I think to learn it (the procedure to save someone from choking) is really impor- tant, because a choking accident could happen at any time.” Being educated in these procedures gave all the students knowledge to be of help in an urgent medical emergency. They only wish it could have been taught to everyone. Anyone wish- ing to learn about CPR should contact the Casa Grande Fire Department for information.

Academics 17 Reading Class students learn and discover new skills in class A “Love of Reading Week,” speed reading development class, and readings to Desert Valley Care Center patients were some of the years activities for the reading department. The approximately 350 students who participated in the reading department programs had much to look forward throughout the school year. During the second semester, a speed reading class was offered to all students at their own level of reading. Mr. Bob Mize said that the development was possible to college level. Students in Mrs. Rosemary Soltau’s classes read to patients at Desert Valley Care Center during the year. The Love of Reading Week was conducted during the week of February 10-14. Reading depart- ment chairman Alice McGalliard said, “We want people aware of the important role reading plays in their lives.” Computers were used in the reading department as tools for improving read- ing skills. Mrs. Pat Landers said, “The programs supply immediate, positive, re- inforcement. Students know immediately if they have selected the correct answer.” Mrs. Landers has five computers. They consist of one disc-drive Commodore Pet, two disc-drive Apple IPs, two tape drive Commodore Pets, and one printer. Com- puters are also available for other teach- ers in the department. Mrs. Landers said, “The computers add extra interest to reading class.” She also writes her own programs as supple- ments to programs purchased by the school. Mrs. Landers added, “We’ve used computers at CGUHS for three years extensively. We’ve discovered that students improve their vocabularies to the grade level or above.” Reading department staff came to school dressed as characters from a book. Miss McGalliard wore a prairie- style dress and told her classes about books that involve Western heritage. Mrs. Brutinel and Mrs. McEuoy wore cowgirl costume. Dino Pena works on a program that helps teach vocabulary. Ms. Patricia Landers helps Marcus f Bradley with a computer. a Ms. Santos Garza, Mrs. Nancy McEvoy. and Mrs. Carol Newton donned their Western clothes in the spirit of Halloween.

Nurse 21 Mr. Charles David Evers, Principal, and his secretary, Mrs. Joyce Grigg Mr. Charles David Evers has been prin- cipal of our school for eight years. During his administration Mr. Evers has brought about many improvements in our school, in both academics and extra-curricular ac- tivities. One of the many responsibilities Mr. Evers possesses is the task of upgrading and improving the quality of education at our school. Due to the large number of incoming freshmen this year, many new staff members had to be hired. “We have added additional faculty members in the academic areas of math, science, English, and social studies to reduce the student- teacher ratio and increase the individual attention provided for students,” Mr. Evers commented. “The improvement of instruction and the updating of curricu- lum has been greatly assisted by the addi- tion of Mrs. Charie Wallace, Assistant Principal in charge of curriculum.” Her responsibilities extend into the class- rooms to improve the quality of educa- tion and the classroom techniques utilized by teachers. Mr. Evers was influential in making many changes suggested by the North Central Evaluation team which visited our campus last year. Among these changes were the establishment of a computer lab in the business department, the hiring of a school nurse to the staff, and the forma- tion of and In-School-Suspension (ISS) program. Other changes are yet to be made in the coming six years until the next evaluation takes place. Dedicated in his goals for excellence in our school, Mr. Evers stated, “I look for- ward to continuing my work as principal of Casa Grande Union High School to make our school the very best secondary institution in the state.” 22 Principal James Cooper Assistant Principal, Attendance Attendance Staff: Mary Francois, Olga Ornelas, Norma Amado, Mary Gamez Chuck McLeod Assistant Principal, Activities, Discipline Charie Wallace Assistant Principal, Curriculum Administrators 23 I Dr. Clark A. Stevens, Superintendent, and his secretary, Mrs. Jeanie Viche This marks the second year of Dr. Clark A. Stevens’ administration as su- perintendent of our school. During the past year. Dr. Stevens has been influen- tial in making changes that have im- proved the quality of education in the district. Among those changes is a new student academic eligibility program. This new system requires a student to have a 2.0 grade average, and that he not be failing more than one class in order to partici- pate in any extracurricular activities. Al- though the new program has not been in effect long enough at our school for rises in the grade-point averages of CGUHS students to documented, according to Dr. Stevens, “Other Arizona school districts having student eligibility programs for more than two years have indicated they have achieved higher grade point aver- ages among all of their students since going to a student eligibility policy.” It is hoped that this program will be an added incentive for student to keep their grades high. Other changes which have been made during the past year due in part to Dr. Stevens’ influence include establishing a districtwide public relations program. Also, a Migrant Education program was established to tutor and counsel students who are forced to tranfer to different schools often. Many new policies were established to improve education, includ- ing the requirement for teachers to be in their rooms before and after school to give extra help to students in their classes. Also, many new school safety programs were established. Dr. Stevens also feels the community’s involvement with the school is a vital as- pect of our school district’s success. He believes that “our citizens (of the school district) will be more committed and sup- portive of educational innovations and changes that they help to create.” The community’s eagerness to provide direct input to the Governing Board has been evident through school board meetings and through the new advisory commit- tees which have been formed this year. Dr. Stevens has a sincere interest in students and their associations with the school, and expressed a willingness to listen to students. “I try to make myself available to visit with students in their classes and give them opportunities to ask questions of me.” “The opportunity to work with peo- ple” is the thing Dr. Stevens enjoys most about his position. “Education is a people business and as Superintendent I have had the privilege of working with people of various ages and from all walks of life. In addition, I am fortunate because I am doing something that I enjoy and believe is meaningful and important,” he said. 24 Superintendent Bill Keasler, Administrative Assistant and his secretary, Virginia Susla Board of Governers (Standing) Cecil Kinser, Stewart Anderson, Superintendent Clark Stevens; (Seated) Superintendent’s Secretary Jeanie Viche, Dick Powell, Deanna McHaney.

Mrs. Ingino noted that CGUHS was one of 13 Ari- zona school districts to be recognized for the award. Based on a number of man- agement and quality food ser- vice factors, the lunch pro- gram was rated outstanding. This year marks the 39th anniversary of the nations pri- mary child nutrition program.

Archery shoots bullseye for fourth in state “This year, the girls’ archery team was 7-3 and finished 4th in state. The girls did exceptionally well. They improved them- selves through the year. They strived for the challenge of having most girls hit over 400. Next year the 400 girls will be able to push for the top teams in the state,” said archery coach Sharon Lunt. Carol Fitsimmons led throughout most of the year. The varsity team consisted of Ninette Davis, Sandy Unger, Kris Hatle- lid, Debbie Staats, and Katherine Allen. The rest of the teams’ players were Car- men Garcia, Jackie Dixion, Jennifer Putz, Marijon Hicks, and Michelle Whitmore. Hopefully next year, if we finish in the top 5 of state, I’ll be real happy, ex- claimed Coach Sharron Lunt. “Although, we had a few atheletes this year, I feel that those remaining made serious efforts to improve themselves,” stated track coach Manuel Quintanar. The boys’ track team had a pretty good year with 6 wins and 3 loses. The boys’ track team members are: Ron Nasatwya, Roger Tollett, Duane Johns, Darrel War- ren, Conde Sluga, Lonny Hall, David Apodoca, Tommy Gaines, Patrick Hunt, Augustine Melicio, Matt Duran, Bobby Sanchez, Calvin Antone, William An- drews, Tommy Torres, Mark Dorff, Ed- die Serratt, Marc Rascon, Ron Lopez, Rene Sandoval, Manuel Duarte, and O’Brien Stewart. The girls’ track team did not do so well, they had 1 win and 8 loses. The girls’ track team members are: Barbara Glaas, Missy Roden, Maria Duran, Becky Burk, Virgina Mejia, Veronica Espino, Dulcita Lu, Vicky Fields, Sherry Ison, Mi- chele Kakar, and Gracie Calis. 94 Archcry Track Cougars leave the competition choking in the dust.

Even though Coach Groves wasn’t op- timistic concerning the team’s play last year, he said they qualified for the divi- sional play offs. He thought that this was worth noting. Last year’s members were: Florine Ze- peda, Sally Peoples, Loretta Deloney, Cecial Costales, Suzanne Little, Christina Flemons, Neva Felix, Paula Williams, and Carolyn Thompson. “We had a lot of girls quit, due to lack of interest, other activities and overall lack of responsibility to themselves and the team,” he said.

Varsity baseball takes 2nd in Metro league The Casa Grande Cougar Varsity base- ball team had a League record of 10-5 and overall 14-10. The team members for this years team were seniors-Doug Smith, David Bell, Greg Ornelas, Paul Gillum and Ben Go- mez. The Juniors were Paul Bell, Shea Nieto, Dennis Diltz, Mark Chandler, Darin Lawton, Jeff Leal, Mike Batina, Russ Stanford, Harley Grigg and Eddy Orne- las. The sophomores were Shawn Lewis and Todd Edwards. The only freshmen was Roy Gomez. Five members were lost to graduation. Three of the seniors got a college scholarships. Greg Ornelas to Central Arizona College. Paul Gillum to South Mountain College, and Ben Gomez to Arizona Western College. Ben Gomez and Gregg Ornelas made the Arizona - All State Teams. Ben Gomez was also a state leader in strikeouts. He had 90 strikeouts in a 60 innings pitched. When asked if the team played up to your level of expectations, Coach Nix an- swered, “Yes and no. We made the play- offs, but did not do as well as we would have liked to in the playoffs. We finished third place in the metro Division. “The goal set for this team was to make the playoffs for the fourth time in five years. The team took second place in the metro A league and finished third place in the Divisional tournament. “If we would have won one more game we would have gone to the State tourney,” Nix said. “We had a young baseball team. At times our lineup would have one fresh- men, two sophomores, 4 juniors and only two seniors,” Nix said. “We had a pretty good season. We were a streak team. We would win three or four in a row, and then lose two or three in a row. Our season ended 1 week early, we didn’t get to state,” Nix stated. Baseball 99 Tennis Players learn to work together as a team Mrs. Jaque Kinagan coached spring girls JV and varsity tennis. The girls prac- ticed from 3:00 to 5:00 every day and challenged each other twice a week to see where they were placed during matches. The biggest competition for the girls was the Arcadia Titans. “Other than that they did excellent be- cause they were a good team and worked hard,” said Kerry McClellan. Outstanding players for varsity, ac- cording to Mrs. Kinihan, were returning seniors Gloria Pixler and Lisa Costallas, who were very strong this year. Fresh- man Amy McMahon, who became the 1 varsity player during the season, was also strong. Most of the JV team members were freshman and did a super job. “They gained a lot of valuable exper- ience,” said Coach Kinahan. Kirstin Barsz said, “The most reward- ing part of tennis was the relationships. We learned how to get along and play all together. It was worth it.” Amy McMahon said, “Tennis is just like Dannie Marsh eating a Big Mac, slop- py at first, but as you get through, it cleans up.” And Dannie Marsh adds, “The best part of tennis was being with my friends.” “Tennis can be boring sometimes, but it’s always rewarding at the end,” said Tricia Auger. The best part of the team was that they loved the sport and enjoyed working to improve themselves. Lisa Costales returns a shot on the courts during a A match.

Tennis teams work toward their potentials The boy’s varsity tennis team had “a great year,” with eight wins and three losses. Coach Steve Miller said he thought the team played very well. “It was a very successful season. The players were easy to coach and cooperat- ive. Only a few teams came close to beat- ing us, besides those that did,” he said. Last year’s members: Varsity, Mike Skaggs, Scott Blackburn, Pat Willhite, Mark Keift, and Brian Beard. The Junior Varsity Team members were Carlos Ras- con, Doug Gerkin, Kevin Blackburn, Sarge Glenn, John Ricketts and Jim O’N- eal. Once again, some of the players made it to the state tournament. “We placed third in the divisional. Mike Skaggs, fourth place in singles, Neal Shinkle and Scott Blackburn, third place in doubles. They all lost the first round of the state tournament.” said Coach Miller. Says Coach Miller, “The team had it’s ons and offs. Sometimes we had a week or two without any matches and it would be hard to stay serious and work hard, or play a team that didn’t have any competi- tion.” Coach Miller says although he will lose three seniors, five to six players will re- turn to make up the varsity boys tennis team. Doug Gerkin stated, “We had a great time and it couldn’t be better!” Doug played Junior Varsity tennis. He admits he had some technique trouble at the beginning of the year. John Ricketts, a freshman, who also served on the Junior Varsity team admitted he had a great year. John stated, “This year went real smooth and our whole team did the best they could.” John also stated, “I had no trouble at all with my playing.” “Coach Miller trained us to be the very best at tennis. I thought he was the best coach I ever had,” stated freshman Doug Gerkin.

The Varsity pom line has been with our school for more than 25 years. The JV and freshman poms are new additions this year. All three groups learned and performed routines for games as well as Pon encourages the pep rallies held during the fall sports season. The Varsity pom line also per- forms with the Cougar Marching Band at band days and during half-time at football and basketball games. During the summer, the Varsity pom line (selected in the spring) attended a conference at NAU in Flagstaff. There they met students from many other Ari- zona high schools who perform in pom spirit lines at their own schools. At the confer- ence they learned techniques for per- forming routines and prompting spirit at sporting events. The JV and freshman lines were selected in the fall. Captains of the Varsity pom line in- clude Kelly Fretheim and Meg Neill. Christina Boyd and Dawn Nelson are the JV squad’s captains, and the freshman captain is Denise Amado. 104 Poms JV POMS: Captain Chrlatlna Boyd, Co-captaln Dawn Nelson, Jill Hag- strom.

Freshman Daniel Sandoval placed 13th and scored first for the Cougars with a time of 18:09. O.B. Stewart placed 17th in 18:15, Duane Johns palced 20th in 18:18, Augustine Melicio placed 26th in 18:33 and Dusty Johnson finished out for the Cougars placing 62nd with a time of 19:26. Ramon Luna and Gilbert Alvarez palced 63rd and 89th, with times of 19:26 and 19:59. At the dawn of their season the Cougar Cross Country Team had a 3-0 record whipping Gilbert 23 to 32, Arcadia 22 to 34, and Tempe 22 to 33. The Cougars raced at Gilbert Invita- tional, but time and team places were not available. The next Invitational that the Cougars raced at was the Pima. On October 9, the Cougars had their first set-back of the season when Chan- dler nipped the Cougars 27-28. On October 19, the Cougars were in- vited to compete in the prestigious Tempe Doug Conley Invitational. Only 20 of the best teams in the state, based on the judge’s poll, were issued invita- tions. The Cougars 18th at this particular competition. On October 30, the Cougars hosted a Regional Multiple meet for Chandler, Cactus and Gilbert. The Cougars cap- tured their Regional Multiple Meet title. Their league record was 4-2. The Cross Country team members are Duane Johns, O’Brien Stuart, Augustine Melicio, Gilbert Alvarez, Ramon Luna, Dusty Johnson, Daniel Sandoval, William Andrews, Troy Beebe, Ben Eble and Mary Flores. Track 113 Swim Team reached their season goals “Just having only one person make it to state is great! If you make it to state you are one of the top 24 people in your event. said Coach Duane Bryan. Randy Alfredo was the only one of our swim team competing in state. His final time in the 100 yd. Freestyle was a 52.24. Only 24 hundreths of a second away from the school record set in 1979. To finish out the year boys were 4-4 in dual meets. Girls were 1-7 in dual meets. “We swam better than the scores showed, said Coach Bryan. Top swimmers for the boys were Ran- dy Alfredo, Albert Soatikee, Andy Ben- nett, Jorge Hernandez, and Jim Reeves. For the girls were Sandy Unger, Gretchen Alfredo, Lisa Comstock, Jaque Dixon, and Shannon Kile. Most valuable swimmers were Randy Alfredo and Sandy Unger. Most improved were Fred Sells, diving and Lisa Comstock, swimming. “I think everybody reached at least one of their goals this year, ’ said Mr. Bryan. Team captains for 1985 were Randy Alfredo and Sandy Unger. “Everyone on the team is a standout and they all deserve to be recognized, ’ said Coach Duane Bryan. “We did not have as much depth this year as we did last year, but the swim- mers and divers make up for it,” stated Coach Duane Bryan. “We look forward for great things in the years to come,’’ added Coach Bryan. Goals for this year were to develop upper body strength by using the new isotomic weight machine and free weights. Practice was held everyday after school and in the morning on Monday and Wednesday. This year there were 8 new boys and 6 new girls. There was also a total of 20 boys and girls returning.

Coach Mary Slavin said, “We didn’t have a very good season but we are win- ners because we achieved much more than the number of wins by the number of loses. We developed successful memories and experiences that will last with each of us a life time.” We asked her if they had improved during the course of the year. “Yes, we improved from day 1. We learned how to play as a team not as individuals. That’s called hard work dedi- cation,” she answered. The 1987 team will be Gloria De la Cruz, Loretta Deloney, Jenelle Otteson, Molly Less, and Chris Slaughter. “We also have some promising JV players who should really help us out,” stated Coach Slavin. “We always miss our graduating sen- iors,” she continued. “Sharon Anderson played for four years and received Most Improved Award and Most Humorous. Nikki Arm- strong played four years Varsity and starting setter. She received Best All Around player and Most Outstanding Award. Bonnie Crouch transfered from Iowa. She had 3 years experience in Iowa and 1 year Casa Grande varsity,” Coach Slavin said. “She was an outstanding de- fensive senior player, also Most Enthusi- astic Player.” Coach Slavin also said “Joanna McCubbin, a senior, was Volleyball Man- ager, Announcer and Scorekeeper for four years. Martha Nava also a senior was her first year varsity manager and equip- ment superviser. The other managers were Christy Sulli- von and Penny Braisher they are juniors. We were a unique 8 of CGUHS. We set a goal, we worked toward our goals. We achieved most of our goals but we never gave up in ourselves or our teammates. We also played in the Central Volleyball Tournament. % A Sharon Anderson bumps the ball to Nikki Arm- strong. so she can set It up.

Varsity football reaches play-off berth Mr. John Kashner will no longer be head coach of the varsity football team. After having an over all record or 4-7 including post-season play, it was decided that Kashner would not have his coaching contract renewed. The Cougars after going 0-10 last sea- son, improved this year. The regular sea- son record was 4-6, winning their last three out of four in order to make it to the playoffs. The low point for the Cougars was the gut-wrenching loss to Paradise Valley. After the game a fight broke out. As a result Mr. Kashner was put on administra- tive leave. The Board of Governors had a meeting after the Paradise Valley game whether or not to fire Mr. Kasner at that time. It was decided whether or not to fire Mr. Kashner at that time. It was decided that Mr. Kashner would be kept at least until the end of the season. After Mr. Kashner was put on leave, it was feared that the AIA would penalize the team in some way, this never came to be. After the fight with Paradise Valley, the Cougars were really fired up. At the next home game the Cougars came out on the field with yellow K’s on their hel- mets. The controversy over Kashner leaving or staying, had great deal to do with the Cougars suffered their final regular sea- son loss to Gilbert. The Cougars didn’t play well in this game. The Cougars were inside the 20-yard line three times and only scored once due to turnovers. The Cougars ended their season by being beaten by Cactus. The Cougars did go to the post-season play, that was a first since 1977. Darrel Warren said “It was great that coach Kashner could lead us to the play- off.” Even though the Cougars record was that of a losing team they had enough league wins to sustain a playoff berth.

JV football has a good season as frosh goes unbeaten Many personal goals were met by the JV football team, but they did not reach the team goal of equaling last year’s re- cord of 6-2. Their overall record was 5 wins and 3 losses. For the league compe- tition, they had 4 wins and 1 loss. Offensively, they improved their pass- ing game. Coach Tony Arnold felt their line-blocking also made some major im- provements in pass blocking. “We lost some key personnel to injur- es late in the season, but we filled in with new players and they did a good job,” ;aid Coach Arnold. The JV football team included 50 play- ers and three coaches: Nick DePadre, Tony Arnold and Bruce Hammond. “I feel our athletes are better prepared to participate as varsity players next ear. Many will be starters and contribute o hopefully a winning season for next ear’s varsity,” stated Coach Arnold. “Hopefully, all of our players will nake it up to the varsity level, but that is nly a wish.” Coach Arnold felt. “The freshmen football team had an outstanding season, meeting many per- sonal and team goals, and going undefeat- ed with 8 wins and no loses. The fresh- men started this season with a 14-0 win over Gilbert, and went on to beat every team by at least 12 points or more,” stated Coach Joe Nix. “This team has learned to do a couple of things, that contribute to their suc- cess,” stated coach Nix. Coach Nix also stated “They have a “we” attitude, this means that it takes all 46 players, a manager, and three coaches to win.” With the coaching of Joe Nix, David Marks, and Jack Loney behind them, the team knew they were going to win big. “My favorite game was against Cactus during the third quarter, we were behind 22 to 16. Then in the fourth quarter we came back to win 46 to 34,” commented Coach Nix. Coach Nix mentioned, “This is not the biggest team I’ve coached, but they have the biggest hearts. They learned that the size of the heart is just as important as the body, by this I mean having desire, deter- mination, and belief in themselves.” JV Frosh Football 121 Frosh Tennis teams show their Cougar capabilities Boys’ Freshmen tennis had a fairly good season this year. The team had six boys — barely enough for the required number needed for the match that they played except one at Arcadia, and the first four they forfiet because of having no coach. Mrs. Coprice Toporowski was then hired. The team won quite a few games, over- all. Our first one met with success, and gave them confidence. “Maybe too much confidence,” said Chris Palmenberg, since the team lost to Arcadia just the next week. Then, we won all the rest of the games.” As Mrs. Toporowski said “The team got a good bunch of tennis players here, and they will be the stars in the spring. “Four out of six freshmen players are on the J.V. Varsity team. The 1985 Frosh Tennis team wound up the season with a 2 in 7 record. That was not that bad considering that most of the players had never played before. Coach Jackie Kinahan sayd, “Frosh tennis is a learning experience and the important thing is that we have fun.” Most of the girls who played on the frosh team will continue to play on the JV and Varsity teams. The frosh team played several games during this year. Two had to be forfeited due to bad weather and one of those two were rescheduled. The team beat Chan- dler Junior and Freemont Junior High. They came up short of beating Arcadia at the close score of 5 to 4. Arcadia was the toughest team to beat last year so that proves that they improved during the season. “We had a great bunch of girls this and I hope to have them all back for J.V. and Varsity in the spring. Even though there is room for improvement, they did a great job,” said Coach Kinahan. Spencer Stoor uses fast action for a quick return.

Varsity Golf takes fourth in state Coach Dave Linley’s coach-of-the-year award for the AAA division two was well deserved. Linley led a 13-man team to the State Tournament. Not all the members participated in the matches, though. Jeff Branche, Rich Bell, and Alan Gilmore (co-captains), Darren Witenburg, and Clay Huestis were the dominate players. The team ended their regular season with a 9-4 record. The AAA Division II Tournament was held on October 30, at Ken McDonald Golf Course in Tempe. The team held first place with a score of 617. Wittenburg was a low-man with 149 and Branch shot 152. There were six other teams that participated in the tour- nament. At the state tournament held on No- vember 6 and 7 at the Arizona City Golf Course, the Cougars finished fourth out of 16. The total scores were 681 for two days. Wittenburg placed second individ- ually with a 160. Gilmore was second on the team shooting a 170. Bell had a 173 and Huestis’s score was 201 (not count- ing in the total score). To finish the year off, the awards ban- quet held some surprises. Gilmore re- ceived a plaque for the most valuable player and Branche obtained one for the most improved. After graduation, Gil- more and Bell will not be part of the team for next year; Branche recently moved away. Team member, Darren Wittenburg, thinks, “This year the team did excep- tionally well, and hopefully next year we’ll be even better.” Co-captain, Alan Gilmore, says, “I be- lieve that our season was very successful. We worked very hard as a team and proved it throughout the year.” Coach Linley feels, “We accomplished all of our goals (except one). We received many awards and honors, but, to me, the best thing has been to “know” these fine men.” Golf 125 VARSITY VOLLEYBALL C.G.

We gave It our best effort and showed a marked Improvement from day 1 ’ she explained. ‘‘You can’t ask for anything more than for a team to work hard and have their hard work rewarded by showing Individual Im- provement,” Miss Slavln adds. “We came to- gether at the beginning of our season as thir- teen individuals with thirteen different Indi- vidual goals, skills and athletic philosophies and at the cumulation of our season, we had molded together as one Individual with the same goal and philosophies. We were very successful at fulfilling our goals.” Coach Slavin adds. “All of the players were outstanding. Each player added greatly to the success of the team by giving totally all herself and her abilities. We were like a ‘Gi- ant Cougar Chain’. It took all of the links to pull toward our success. We were successful. We not only went to Divisionals. which was one of our goals, but we also won the first round of Divisional play and lost out on our bid to go to State by losing to the 1 team 3- 0. We held the top team scoreless for five Innings and committed no errors In our final game. ‘‘We didn’t win but we went down as true winners.” Miss Slavin commented. ‘‘The junior varsity team worked hard to acquire their softball skills,” stated junior varsity softball coach, Rosie Toler. “The team worked basically on offensive skills, and a little improvement of defensive skills.” stated Coach Toler. “Mary Flores and Monica Hernandez did a beautiful Job of pitching throughout the sea- son,” said Coach Toler. “Mary and Monica had all the pressure on them, but remained pretty much under con- trol throughout the season.” Coach Toler ad- ded. “The whole team did a beautiful Job,” stat- ed Coach Toler.

Cougars fight for the ball get another chance at the T goal. Using many different wrestling techniques, the Cougar wrestlers prevailed over their opponents. Cougar Grapplers and soccer players face competition The soccer team consisted mostly of freshman and sophomores with only two seniors and one junior. Most of the re- turning players could not play because of the new eligibility rule. This rule forced Coach Dave Linley to start all over and build this new team. This situation put the soccer team in a losing position this year with a season record of 1-10-1. The team included David Horst, Paul Bell, Eddie Serratt, Bubby Hoover, Scott Neal, Joe Davis, Mike Pearce, Joey Ver- dusco and David Powell. Also, Wade Cherry, Mike Storer, Jeremy Kirkpatrick, Travis Kirkpatrick, Jose Perez, Ronnie Mejia and Mike Macias. Also, Benji Pi- non, Roger Valdez, Lee Kloos, Albert Prieto, Fred Stamps, and manager, Mari- jon Hicks. Marijon Hicks said, “When a team is losing, the morale is down a little, but there were some members of the team that really had the desire to win and en- couraged the others.” “The enthusiasm of those players kept the others ones working harder and helped them keep the desire to win.” Wrestling is a contact sport where two people, using learned skills, try to pin each other to the floor. The Varsity Wrestlers are Jesus Ber- mal, 100 lbs, Ralph Dast, 107 lbs, Joey Salinas, 114 lbs, Steve Walker, 119 lbs, Raul Gomez, 134 lbs, Tim Dunham, 140 lbs, and Scott McHaney, 147 lbs. Also Ron Lopez, 157 lbs, Jason Davis, 157 lbs. Matt Duran, 169 lbs, Adam Flores, 187 lbs, Fred Marquez, 193 lbs, and at heavy weight is John Ollerton. The teams toughest competition was against Gilbert High. “We have a very good experience team”, remarked Coach Nic DePadre. “The outstanding wrestlers were Ralph Dasti, Raul Gomez, Matt Duran, and Fred Marquez, according to the coach. Coach DePadre said, “We are looking forward to a strong divisional ranking. I predict that we will prepare hard, both physically and mentally for each match. Casa Grande wrestlers have always been successful in the past years and have had to work very hard for that success. It would be a great show of appreciation if there would be more student body repre- sentatives in the gym when we have our matches,” said Coach DePadre. Soccer Wrestling 135 Basketball strives for a winning season for the Cougars. “I never thought we could achieve this goal until we reached 250 wins,” said Coach Bruce Kieser. However, Coach Kieser reached his 300th win when the Cougars beat Prescott on December 10. Before coming to Casa Grande, Coach Kieser coached at North Crawford, Wis- consin, for five years. Their record was 170 wins and 39 losses. Next he coached at Cassville, Wisconsin, for five years. Their record was 80 wins and 20 losses. Coach Kieser has coached here five years. His record was 52 wins and 46 losses. The varsity basketball team had a re- cord of 11 and 4, and in the tournament games they were 5 and 3. That put them third in their division. The team was ranked eighth in the state. The Junior Varsity Basketball team had a record of 6 and 9 last year. The JV team was young last season as it had three freshmen. They were Billy Hatton, Wade Stooks, and Aaron Robbins. The Freshman Basketball Team had a record of 11 and 3. The freshman worked hard all during the season to achieve their goals. “It’s a whole different feeling, playing a game instead of watching,” remem- bered Joe Graack, member of the fresh- man team. “I am proud to have been a part of the team,” said Darren Wittenburg, fresh- man. ‘‘They have played an exceptional season.” “When I first walked in the Basketball gym from the greatest football coach to the greatest basketball coach, I knew from that day on we would have to work hard to have a good season,” said varsity player Darrell Warren. I went to practice every day, working hard each day the sweat and the pain. We as a team went through to get a 300th win and more. When we reached that 300th win it felt great. But still we worked harder and harder,” he said. f Tony Jackson shoots up the ball Matt Less battles against Gilbert while Darrell Warren slam dunks defense. the ball for the winning score.

Last fall the Thespian Troupe staged the Broadway hit musical, “A Chorus Line.” The musical, which still plays to sold-out houses on Broadway, is about a group of professional dancers auditioning for a Broadway musical. Throughout the show, the characters told the director about them- selves through song and dance, and under- went normal audition procedures. Finally, selections were made by the director, and the chorus line” performed. This was the finale of the show. The finale was a spectacular sight, includ- ing glittering costumes with top hats and flashing lights. At the conclusion, the chorus lined up and performed a series of chorus line kicks.” They received standing ovations for each performance of the show. The show was choreographed by Miss Noel Irick of Scottsdale, and Mrs. Marilyn Cooper was the choral director. The Mesa Symphony Orchestra, directed by Mr. Mau- rice DuBonet also included a number of stu- dents playing instruments. The dedication of Mr. Manuel Leybas, the director of the show and drama instructor of our school, allowed the talents of the students to come together and create the spectacular performances. Although the production created a large financial deficit due to record-low atten- dance, all the cast members felt it was well worth it to work for the experience. They held many fund-raisers during the year, in- cluding a Chorus Line” kick-a-thon, candy sales, and car washes. The International Thespian Troupe 147’s club officers include Diann Stan- dage, President; Stephanie Kleinz, vice president; Jana Berryhill, secretary; and Ken Jahns; treasurer.

Teaching the new staffers how to correctly produce a newspaper takes a lot of time and effort. 148 Annual Growl Annual, Growl staffers work to meet deadlines Diann Standage, editor-in-chief of the 1986 Cougar Annual, and Gary Taylor, editor-in-chief of the Cougar Growl, helped their staffs meet deadlines and publish their re- spective publications. Large staffs made their job more difficult, since the majority of stu- dents on the publications were new to the groups. “Meeting deadlines was a con- stant struggle,” said adviser Bar- bara Warren. “Annual staff began with 33 students and the newspa- per staff had 27.” “We worked on Annual basics for the first few weeks, then started to produce the pages themselves.” Mrs. Warren added. During the year, several staffers learned photography techniques and became skilled in the dark- room. “The Growl staff was especially proud of the creative arts issue,” Mrs. Warren said. “We encouraged students to begin working on their stories, poetry, art work and pho- tography early in the year, so we would have a lot of top-rate materi- al available by the January dead- line.” Both Annual and Growl staffers learned the basics of production, including layout and design, copy writing, copy reading, basic editing, headline writing, interview tech- niques and photograph selection. In addition, they worked with the ethics of journalism as they strove to produce the best possible publi- cations. “Next year should be a lot ea- sier, “Mrs. Warren said. “We ex- pect to have many trained students returning to both staffs and they will lend their expertise to the new members.” As the year came to an end, all staffers were looking forward to us- ing a computer in the fall to pro- duce camera-ready stories and to index the Annual automatically.

Annual Growl 149 SADD, Speech members plan varied activities Students Against Driving Drunk (SADD) is a fairly new club, having been in operation only two years. Its purpose is to inform the students and community of the dangers of drinking and driving, and to sponsor activi- ties aimed at reducing the damage done to society by drunk drivers. A few of the activi- ties the twenty SADD members participated in were having exhabits and videos on drunk driving in the mall, having a float in the O’Odham Tash parade, attending the SADD rally, and campaning before the Christmas Holidays. The club officers are Patricia Knoop, president; Bonnie Crouch and Valerie Les- sard, vice-presidents; Krystal Stephen, Sec- retary; and Lynette Northey, treasurer. To become a SADD member a C average is required. There are two kinds of member- ship. One is the active working membership in which those who can attend the meetings belong. The second kind is supporting mem- bership in which those who support the ideals of SADD but cannot be at the meet- ings belong. The club also participated in Operation Prom Project. They set up a place where people could come to have fun and not be drinking. It lasted until four o’clock in the morning. There were all kinds of food to eat and people had lots of fun. “We require your desire and interest in working hard and improving yourself as a public speaker. We also expect our mem- bers to support each other and be a team,” said Miss Laurie Johnson, the speech team sponsor. The speech team attended eight competi- tions, or approximately nine students partici- pated in the program. The purpose of the speech team was to promote competition speech in the secon- dary schools and increase the student’s self- esteem through successful competition. The speech team is governed by the Ari- zona Inter-scholastic Association. There are speech teams like the one here all over the nation. The motto of the team is “We will speak no word beyond its time.’’ Miss Johnson added, “I’m excited that I am being given the opportunity to sponsor and coach a competitive speech team. The students I am working with are very chal- lenged by the idea of competition and that makes my job easy.” A The speech team consists of Laurie Dalrymple, Laura Kleinman. (Coach). Carrie Luedtke.

Blue Notes Chorale 163 Choruses enjoy performing for the school and community The choral section of the creative arts department, directed by Mr. Ben Day, performed many concerts throughout the year, including Handel’s “Messiah,” and fall and spring concerts. Handel’s Christmas “Messiah’’ was performed on Sunday, the 15th of December. All of the choral groups practiced for weeks to perform. They put in extra hours outside of school time, also, to be ready for the annual performance. Finally, after hours of rehearsal, they donned the traditional blue and white choir robes to sing, with music provided by a youth symphony. Varsity Singers are on the intermediate level of choir groups. They perform at all major concerts and are involved in special ensembles. This year a madrigal (a singing group of sixteen people) was formed. Also, the barbershop quartet was orga- nized as a group after not being active for the past several years. Any choir student interested in preparing a solo number for the solo ensemble festival held the 25th of January was invited to do so, and some students auditioned for and partici- pated in district choir and all-state choir. The troubadors are made up of boys who are having their first high school experiences in choir. They perform in all the major concerts. The coraliers is a group of girls who are on the beginning level of choir. They also perform in all of the major concerts. Barbara Lenear, a member of varsity singers and corale, speaking about her experiences in choir said, “I would encour- age students to get involved. It’s a great experience.” VARSITY SINGERS: (front row) Denise Zimmerman. Amy Ramos. Julie Hangstrom. Stacey Hash. Paul Cook. Eddie Hornbeck. Gwyn Cornforth. Christy Sullivan.

A FFA continues “Learning to do, doing to learn, learning to live, living to serve.” This is the motto of the Future Farmers of America, a club that has been an active organization on the campus for 37 years. The club was chartered in 1948, and serves to develop agriculture, and more specific requirements are set to obtain the degrees of active membership. Officers for the 1985-86 school year were Volney Fike, president; John Salazzar, vice-president; An- drea Fimber, secretary; Sarah Campbell, treasurer; Kristie Mc- Clellan, reporter; and Jeff Ste- phens, sentinal. to compete The approximately sixty mem- bers of FFA participated in many activities throughout the school year. Some of these activities were the Pinal County Fair, the Arizona State Fair, Cotton judging, District Leadership Day, A Benifit Christ- mas Party, a ski trip, District and State Judging Contests, and a Par- ent Member Banquet. Mr. Rhodes, club sponser left on January 24. He became 4-H direc- tor for Pinal County. The new FFA sponser and Agri- culture teacher for the remainder of the 1985-86 year is Eugene Da- vis, a graduate of the University of Arizona.

JAG members prepare for after graduation Jobs for Arizona Graduates (JAG) now in its sixth year, is a club wich reinforces the employ- ability competencies of the JAG curriculum by giving students practice in handling money, meet- ing business and community lead- ers, and practicing social skills. “We have been recognized as an outstanding JAG chapter in the state for the past three years. We have every intention of keeping that award at Casa Grande for a very long time,” said club sponsor Diane Young. There are JAG pro- grams in fifteen Arizona schools. Each of the fifty members must be seniors able to graduate by the end of the year. They should not be planning a four-year university or have clear-clut career goals at the time they enroll. This club is for people who plan to work soon after graduation. The club officers are President Tommy Gains, Vice President- Carmen Garcia, and Christina Fle- mens- Secretary-Shawn Stephens, Treasurer-Sharon Anderson, and Historians-Aleyda Espino and Norma Marin. JAG follows a five-part pro- gram of chapter activities. They also are awarded points for all ac- tivities as part of Chapter Achievement Awards Program. The five part are Leadership and Self Development Promotion of JAG Program, Civic Responsibil- ity, Career and Development Job Attainment Job Survival, and Personnal Survival.

Marching band receives excellent’ rating in annual Band Day at U of A This year’s Cougar Symphonic Band is definitely full of pride. With over 90 members strong, and they sure know how to thrill a crowd. The bands provide for many activities through- out the year, such as, football games, basketball games, pa- rades, concerts, and contests. The Marching band plays all home football games and one away game. They play Band Day at U of A, pep assemblies, rallies, Homecoming parade, and O’Odham Tash Parade. Sym- phonic Band plays a Christmas concert, a winter concert, a Spring concert, and contest. The band officers are President Sean Mireau; Vice President Mike Sunbloom; Secretary Mike Tackett; and Treasurer Ernie Nogales. The hard work must come from all participants, the director and mostly the band members. And the hard work obviously pays off. There aren’t many requirements but they are all important. Members must “pass the audition requirements (demonstrate adequate playing ability) and be a member of the Marching Symphonic Band,” said adviser Ricard Lingwall. The band raises funds for band trips and other activities by cheese and sausage sales. “The Pride of Casa Grande” certainly fits this “excellent” band. The fact that we received an “excellent” during Band Day at U of A in October proves that we are the pride. MARCHING BAND! (first row) Kristen Sanders, Kerry McClellan, Heather Willis, Martha Walton.

The Mexican American Club has been part of our school for approximately sixteen years and has been organized by Mr. Anthony Ras- con. Some of the activities the Mexican American Club had planned for this year were a Halloween Booth at O’Neil Park, Halloween and Christmas grams, a car wash, dance, run- ning concession stands, and trips to Sea World and Metro Center. To be in the Mexican American Club you must meet the academic requirements and have a positive attitude in participating in all activities. There is a new addition to CGUHS. The club is a fellowship of Christian athletes or FCA for short as some people call the club. There are anywhere from ten to twenty in the club. The club would like to see Christ’s influ- ence through sports at CGUHS. They would like to get people involved through sports and come together and talk about Christ. This is the first year this club has been on campus. Activities for this year included helping a family at Christmas by bringing food and pre- sents for the family and selling Valentine grams and balloons. They also had a couple of concession stands at basketball games. FCA is a national club with members all over the country. There aren’t any require- ments that are actually pushed toward any- one. Everyone is welcome. It is preferred that members have been involved in sports. How- ever, anyone that believes in Christ and ex- presses how they feel is welcome. The American Field Service is an nation- wide organization which promotes global un- derstandings. The American Field Service has been apart of our school for approximately twenty years. One of the activities the Ameri- can Field Service planned for the year was a Christmas party. The American Field Service has five members and each member has an interest in world understanding. This year’s members of the Mexican American club are (Front Row) Juan Prieto. Gina Galvan. Monica Hernandez. (Back Row) Carmen Diana Lara. Connie Espinoza. Esther Martinez, Angle Apodaca. Ra- Garcia.

Academic decathletes succeed Our academic decathlon team represented Pinal County at the state competition Monday, March 10. The group placed second in the Region II contest, outscoring 12 of the 14 partici- pating teams. The nine decathletes won two team trophies, one individual trophy, 32 individual medals, and $1550 in scholarships for top scores in the ten academic events. The team placed second overall and second in the super quiz, according to coach Mrs. Pat Hicks and assistant coach Mrs. Beth Turner. Susan Peoples won an individual trophy for her first place overall in the essay. She also won a gold medal for her honors essay, a silver medal in language and literature, and a bronze medal for individual overall on the honors level. Susan received a $50 scholarship for her essay. Sanjiv (Sonny) Singh received a silver medal for his honors interview. Andy Bennet won a silver medal for his scholastic essay. Rich Bell won a bronze medal in scholastic math, while Joyce Chandler won a silver medal in varsity essay. Albert Soatikee won silver medals in individual overall on the varsity level, as well as in the essay, interview, economics, speech, and language. Albert also won a bronze medal in math. The six participants received scholarships of $200 each, while the three alternates received $100. Alternates were Luis Martinez, Calvin Antone and Karen Ventura. Mrs. Hicks said, “The decathlon team extends sincere appre- ciation to the community, volunteers, governing board mem- bers, administrators, teachers, and students for their support, especially for their enthusiastic attendance and cheering during the super quiz. Aacdemic Decathlon 183 Students have great eggs-pectations What looks like Easter, teaches responsibility, and involves students? The family living classes egg project, of course. Each student was given a raw egg and instructed not to lose or break it, for an entire week. Mrs. Jean Beach said, “The eggs represent responsibility. The eggs were uncooked, and therefore fragile.” Some students opted not to decorate their eggs, but most gave it a special “personal touch.” Scott McHaney set his egg in a light socket, making it look like a light bulb. Nichole Collier decorated her egg to look like a panda bear. Students had to carry their eggs wherever they went for one week. In rememberance of that week, Kathy Hughes said, “It was fun for the first few days, then it became a real pain.” Jennifer Deall added, “I didn’t realize how forgetful I was until I started carrying my egg.” If a student were to break his egg, he would face a classroom trial. Each class elected prosecuting and defending lawyers, as well as a judge. The rest of the class acted as a jury. The mock trials determined whether the defendant was guilty of intention- ally breaking his egg because he no longer wanted the responsi- bility, or if the breaking was an accident. At the end of the week, family living students learned how to poke holes in both ends of the egg and blow out the yolk and egg white. After this, the seniors rinsed the egg out and shel- lacked the shells for preservation. The purpose of the project was to teach students that respon- sibility is not easy to master, and Mrs. Beach said the project was a success. (Above) Students In Mrs. Jean Beach's family living classes decorated their eggs. A chocolate-covered Ice cream cone, a football, and a light bulb were among the variety of eggs.

In this case, however, people are meeting puppets. These puppets are special. Some of them are handicapped. The other puppets are getting to know all about them and their problems. A group of students helped the Pinal County Medical Auxiliary with a special project educating students about handicaps and what they are. Children are sometimes afraid when they come across someone who is different. They’re fearful of the unknown. A group of three students, Angie Terell, Anita Wilson and Lori Gilmore, had different, seven-minute skits about each handicapness. They include blindness, deafness, mentally retardation, and cerebral palsy. Each skit also has one or two other puppets who are “helpers.” The scripts explain what the puppet’s problem is, how someone should approach such a person, act around someone like that, and what it’s like to have the handicap. The program was designed for elementary students about the age of eight. The idea of this project was from Patti Robledo, the chairperson for the Pinal County Medical Society Auxiliary. Mrs. Robledo saw a similar production, but didn’t particularly care for the skits, and the auxiliary couldn’t afford it at the time. The whole proudction took about an hour, seven minutes for each of the four skits, and seven minutes in between each for questions from the audience. The puppeteers dressed all in black with veils over their heads. All the questions from the younger kids were directed to the puppets. No one saw the faces of the puppeteers until the end. It’s really a great learning experiences for those working the puppets and for the little kids, the girls decided. “I know I never had anything of this sort when 1 was that age, and there probably weren’t many who did,” said Lori Gilmore. “We prob- ably learned while walking somewhere with our parents, pointing to someone, and saying, ‘Hey, Mommy, why is he walking funny?’ or ‘She’s strange-looking and talks funny.’ ” Now with this project, kids don’t embarrass their parents or the handicapped people with such questions. Mrs. Robledo said, “This is a real accomplishment. I’m glad to be able to belong to a group that can do something like this. Being a parent of a handicapped child, 1 can see how children treat people like that. Just because a person is handicapped doesn’t mean that he’s useless. The point we are trying to get across is that a handicapped child is more-or-less “hanicapable.’ ” The auxiliary members wrote the skits. A lady outside the auxiliary made the puppets at a low cost to the auxiliary. The Medical Auxiliary is a group of physicians’ wives. Angie Terell. Anita Wilson and Lori Gilmore reveal themselves dur- ing the finale of the handicapped puppet show for third graders. The show tells youngsters what handicapped children can do. 188 Puppets A Half of the puppets participate in the finale of the “Getting to Know You” puppet show. A During this skit, the deaf puppet tells about his hearing aids and talks about sign language. The audience learns how to sign some words too. The girl in the walker has cerebral palsy. She tells her new friend she is a good bowler because she practices a lot, and she can do things because she thinks she can. Puppets 189 VARSITY CHEERLEADERS: Annette Manterola.

Cheers, flags prompt school spirit The 1985-86 Cheerleading squads and flag line were important in contributing to team spirit at many sporting events. The flag line, headed by senior captain Cynthia Edwards and co-captain Yvette Armstrong, was essential in creating visu- al effects with the Cougar Marching Band. They began practices before school began in September to be ready for band days and sports games in the fall and winter. They also practiced for many hours before and after school to gain skill in flag twirling. They marched alongside the band, twirling their flags in complex designs in time with the music. The Varsity cheerleading squad and the freshman cheer squad, a new addition to our school pep groups, performed at football and basketball games. They also performed at pep rallies in the fall. Their job was to prompt team spirit and enthu- siasm in the crowd. The varsity squad, which was selected last spring, attended a conference during the summer at Northern Arizona Univer- sity in Flagstaff. They met cheerleaders from other high schools and learned new techniques in promoting school spirit and new cheers and mounts to perform. The freshman squad, which was select- ed during the fall, performed at many sporting events. Some of the require- ments for membership in the squads in- clude pep, a smile, physical up-to-date fitness, and an appearance. The captains of the Varsity squad are Sandy Antone and Yvette Auza.
