Pep leaders inspireTitan school spirit Cheerleading is a difficult task. Although the glamour and pres- tige are always welcome, hard work, long hours of grueling competition, and having your vocal cords stretched from limb to limb are just part of the punishment undergone by each girl. The cheerleaders at Taylor are no exception. The girls worked two nights a week after school, learning new yells, and perfecting them while the fans enjoyed coming to the games on week- ends. Cheerleading is an art that takes practice, confidence, and a willingness to work. Taylor ' s cheerleaders not only attended the yell-leading camp for the second consecutive year, but they also built up the school spirit that helped the teams win some crucial games. a Here are the 1970-71 Titan varsity cheerleaders. They are Sherri Richmond, Cindy Swain, Cindy Brown, Terri Free, Pam Johnson, b Reserve leaders are Cindy Giles, JoAnn DeLong, Nancy Tucker, Jane Moore, c Titan cheer- leaders are overwhelmed with joy as the team scores again, d Jane Moore, JoAnn DeLong, Nancy Tucker, and Cindy Giles go through a routine.
