Parents Petition District For Soccer Acceptance Soccer is fast becoming a popular sport in the community. This year the soccer club was quite different than last year, for it was more organized. Members were brought together before Christmas, and practices were started, even though the first match did not take place until March 19. So. with plenty of prac- tice. plus an assortment of players different grades and ages, the club expected to do quite well. Being in the club meant paying for one's equipment and uniform for no funds were provided or raised. Soc- cer is not recognized as a school- sponsored sport, even though many parents petitioned for it. The sport, not being recognized by the school, meant that practices could not be held on campus. The club made its home field at Draper Park, practic- ing three to five times a week, sev- eral hours a day. Having their own cheerleaders to cheer for them on the field at matches added spirit and pride to the club, and built it as a possible new sport for high school competi- tion.

 Company Members “Dance It” In Concert Dance Company started right in dancing at the beginning ot the year. They had to prepare for their early concert held January 15 and 16. September was devoted totally to improving technique. In October the members were coming to early morning practices at six a m. and staying after school until five p m. They put in long, hard hours of danc- ing to prepare for their January and April concerts. The theme for the concert was Dance It. They also took programs to various elemen- tries and middle schools. The mem- bers said it was alot of hard work but that it was all worth it! The concerts included all types of dancing abstract, jazz, disco, bal- let. character, and modern. The Company earned money for cos- tumes and concerts by selling roses for Homecoming and Sweethearts. This year the members went all out on costumes. The advisor. Carolyn Wootton. helped the girls not only in improving their technique but also in giving them love and friendship The offi- cers of the Dance Company said. She was always there when we needed her Many times she was the only thing that kept us going! DAMCi COMPANY—Row 1: Jendawn Belkston. Dondi McNrchol. Angela Caldwell. Valerie Fisher.
