Red, old, PA, Chees Fight' As in the past, the pep squad tried to gain the interest of the student body, but as usual, they did not succeed. Accompaning most ofthe home football games was a pep assembly, requiring some 2,000 people to plle into the north gym to scream and yell. The assemblies and rallies were a great improvement over last year's, but the nega- tive attitude ofthe students remained the same. All ofthe blame, however, cannot be placed on the pep squad. They spent many tiring hours before and after school planning and preparing the assemblies and rallies. The pep assemblies included an assortment of activities such as skits, cheers, and a small amount of audience participation. The pep rallies at lunch gathered several onlookers as the pep squad held a variety of contests, with a variety of prizes. The involvement of lvlr. Payne, the pep squad advisor, seemed to help with the originality ofthe activities. He did alot more than the student body or the faculty had ever expected, by actually taking part in the assemblies rather than just advising them. 18 f Pep Assemblies and Rallies
