BAND 14 Majorettes kicked and dipped to Lennon and McCartney hits as a change from usual twirling and marching routines. Instructed by Jerry Ifkovitz and Miss Sue Scherer, twirlers also performed at home basketball games. Teena Dech and Audrey Smith headed the squad, as Kathy Marushak and Cathy Harmonosky were feature twirlers. Director Roberta Schleicher kept the color guard stepping high as she led them through intricate and detailed drills. Heading the guard were Debra Steigerwalt, captain, and Sharon West, co-captain. I enjoyed the year, reflected Sharon, and hope more girls will be interested in joining in the future. A flair of fashion and design incorporated its way into the band front and its uniforms.
