But a closer look makes it apparent that being a cheerleader involved much more than that. A devoted fan attended every game, but a devoted cheerleader went to every game, attended summer camp and practices, arranged pep assemblies and still managed to put in time making signs and banners. A lot of time was involved and though many Patriots might have believed it wasn't worth the time required, there were at least 21 who did. Cheerleading takes up at least three-fourths of your time, and you have to schedule everything around it, but I think it's worth it because I enjoy cheerleading, said Cheri Cross, junior varsity cheerleader. Tumbling was included at practically every game, even if it was from the top of a well-built pyramid, proving that even cheerleaders had their ups and downs. All washed up. Soaked by rain that fell throughout the game, Lora Pittman cheers the Patriots on as did all of the cheerleaders at the Parkview vs. Northeast game. The cheerleaders were wet, but so were the players and, unaccustomed to the rain, the Patriots lost one of three games lost during the season as they unexpectedly fell to the Chargers, 10-0. . y it mug, Uttle red Ure truck. Racing to save the Patriots' home, the cheerleaders' fire engine runs right past the home of the Zebras in a skit at the Parkview vs. Pine Bluff football assembly. Best of pals. Junior varsity cheerleaders Dee Payne and Janet McDowell show what close friends they have become. They have been cheering together for two years, at Mann and now at Parkview. ' I -' man 2 .r a ....

CLegs, legs, legs hirty-six Liberty Belles stood in a row, looking glamorous under the stadium lights. But as most Liberty Belles found out, it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. Sore muscles and endless practices seemed to put a damper on things. It was a lot of work at first, said Anita King, juniot. We had to get up at 5 every morning, but I really like it, it's fun. Marching at a game came only after about four days of practice on each particular routine. Practices were preceeded by stretching exercises and other warm ups. State competition and tryouts highlighted the spring. Liberty Belles entered three categories of competition- prop with pom pons, high kick and marching-at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway. Drummers played a major role at every game as they provided the marching beat for the girls. 'I don't know why I'm a drummer, said Kelley Cooper, who had been playing for the Liberty Belles for three A coke and a smile.

I guess l do it because it's something different. Whether they stood on the sidelines beating the drums or marched onto the field in ruftles and smiles, all associated with Liberty Belles enjoyed their chance to shine.
