Q Cheerleaders Promote Spirit In School Cheerleading tryouts were held in October, with forty girls hoping to become full-fledged hockey, basketball. or wrestling cheerleaders. Squads encouraged enthusiasm at games. assem- blies, and in their participation in school activi- ties. The football cheerleading squad was successful in cheering the team on to a Homecoming victory against Dimond. The Stadium stands were filled with fans, many of whom rode the pep busses. The wrestling cheerleaders promoted a winning spirit among the crowds and once again victory reigned over the Mustang Team. The hockey squad cheered under the guidance 244 of Mrs. Mac 0wen. They worked long prac- tices and it paid off when we almost beat East in the first tournament game, she commented. Problems arose among the basketball yell lead- ers with inter-squad squabbles. They started the season with two squads of four cheerleaders un- der their sponsor, Mrs. Florence Pearson, and ended with one squad. Nevertheless they were recognized as having helped the team in raising morale. Over all the cheerleaders, during the middle of the year worked against tremendous odds try- ing to liven up dead crowds, concluded Mrs. Owen, Pep Club sponsor.

Track Team Passes Half Way Mark This year's track team, consisting of 23 girls and 40 guys, has come a long way. It is the first time in a long time in track that we have passed a 502 winning season, commented Coach Andy Kirk.

Under the leadership of captains Polly Tritt and Cheryl Curtis, the girls finished with a seven win- seven loss season. l'm really proud of them all. They worked very hard, said Coach Henry. 246 Cheryl Curtis proved her outstanding ability when she achieved four firsts in two meets. Co-captains Darcy Swavely, Jerome Durr, and Chris Parker led the boys to an eight win-six loss season. Jerome Durr was recognized as an out- standing all-around trackster, while Joe Lochner, Pat Garrity, and David Lester were also recog- nized. l'm very pleased with the record of this year's team, and since they're young, l expect even bet- ter next year. concluded Coach Kirk.
