Page 50 Cheer Leaders This year ten Cheerleaders were chos- en from a group of thirty-three. This group of ten was divided into smaller sections and asked to cheer at the various games. Kearsley was especially proud of their two senior boy cheerleaders. At the various games the opposing schools would remark about Kearsley's boy cheerleaders. The girls deserve credit and praise for their efforts at the Pep Meetings and at the games. Miss Newton was the sponsor and should be commended upon the line work which she accom- plished with this enthusiastic group. Pep Club The Pep Club is now two years old. Pep Club representatives are elected for a two year term. It consists of twelve members. These members are elected by the student body six of which must be girls and the other six boys. The Kearsley Pep Club is an active organization which encourages school sportsmanship, promotes cheerleading, puts on pep meetings both during the school day and at night, and promotes school spirit which has proved a great benefit to the school. This year they were instrumental in collecting over one hundred dollars toward Kearsley's lighted football field: The members of the Pep Club guaranteed the first two lights. Also the Pep Club representa- tives have made and taken care of the advance ticket sale for all football and basketball games. Any Kearsley student may be a mem- ber of the Kearsley Pep Club. But he must apply for a membership card in person. A real Kearsley Pep Club booster participates in school activities, attends as many games as possible, shows leadership ability and good sportsmanship at all times. A true Hornet Booster always up- holds the Blue and Gold. Kearslecllo
