WE LOVE A PARADE Below is a picture of the Echo Majorette Band in action. They are taking part in the Westward Ho! Parade in Pendleton. Twenty-eight girls participated in this parade.

CHEERLEADERS The four cheerleoders elected by the student body this year are: Kathy Ellis, Donna Snow, Jeon Ramos, and Kay Lieuallen. These four girls led the cheering section throughout football, basketball, and baseball seasons. During football season the girls wore white skirts and white sweaters with a blue emblem on the front. For basketball season the girls made entirely new uniforms. These were of blue and white corduroy—white corduroy skirts and blue corduroy blouses and tights. Also the girls wore white majorette boots with blue tassels. These uniforms looked especially nice. The cheerleaders worked very hard at their job They worked out some new routines for the old yells and also some routines for a few new yells. The girls appeared at nearly every game throughout basketball, football, ond baseball season; and they, along with the cheering section, were always behind the team. MAJORETTES The four majorettes for the High School Band are Dorothy Wiglesworth, senior; Kay Lieuallen, freshman; Carol Ann Wiglesworth, eighth grade; and Mabel Rose Correa, seventh grade. These girls performed several times throughout the year, doing solos, duets, or quartets. They do both tumbling ond acrobatic twirling. The majorettes performed one night of the tournament at McEwen and led the band during parades in Pendleton Dorothy and Kay may also be seen in the Pep Club as mojorettes or as directors.
