Latin and Spanish students held a ioint Christmas party, and also sang carols for us in the corridors in their respective lan- guages.

Portland High School is fortunate in Q having a fine coaching staff. A Harold Wallace, veteran of ten years with Panther teams, coaches basketball and baseball. William Goshert, who came to Portland last year from Warsaw, coaches the football team and freshman basketball. Since track was revived in l95O, Howard Berry has led the cinder- men, while also assisting in football. Although working in highly competi- tive situations, our coaches have always maintained friendly relations with the coaches of other schools. They are good examples for us students to follow. 'Nu' To arouse greater student backing of all Panther teams while practicing good sportsmanship was the chief aim of the cheerleader committee this year. A Pep Club was organized, composed of approximately a hundred students, who sat in a block at all home games and spearheaded the cheering. At sectional time they formed the center of the cheer- ing block which was so sensational. ln March the committee sponsored an all-school sports dance. Much credit is due Freddie Kist, chairman, for her en- Cqqgheg Wallace, gem, Gnd Gggheff thusiasm and hard work on the committee. how the coaches, students, and fans backed All the way from the opening kick-off in the fall to the last crack of the gun in the spring, the varsity cheerleaders were constantly urging us on to support our teams. The cheering block at the sectional attracted much attention, and they really looked sharp in their white shirts with purple ties and white gloves. Their pre- cision card formations and thunderous cheering were the result of the untiring efforts of the trio of Warstler, Linder, and Smith. Hi-de-hi, hi-de-ho, chant Kay Sue Warstler, Ann Linder, and Carol Jean Smith, varsity cheerleaders. 3 O NKQ1 mf Il
