Cheerleaders teach the students how to bunny hop during the sock hop on “fifties day. School Spirit Goal of Cheerleaders Increased school spirit was the goal of the ASH cheerleaders. For the first time this year, boys were allowed to try out for cheerleader. Cheerleaders were chosen on the basis of voice quality and acrobatic ability. Serving as judges were coaches, officers of the A-Club, class officers, pep club members, and people from the town. In the summer, the varsity and junior varsit squads attended a clinic at Northwest Missouri State in Maryville, Missouri. Both groups received a “Superior rating. The junior varsity also received the “spirit stick , given the squad having the most enthusiasm during the clinic. In August, the varsity squad cheered at the Shrine Bowl football game in Lincoln. The wrestling cheerleaders helped with the Auburn Wrestling Tournament and the District Wrestling Tournament. All the cheerleaders sponsored the ding-a-ling” contest. On appointed game days, classes competed for the greatest percentage of representation by participating in the day's activity. Activities ranged from wearing mismatched shoes to dressing in the garb of the 50’s. Members of the winning class were presented with a jingle-bell ding-a-ling. Other events, such as pep rallies, skits, and a “fifties day sock hop were planned by the cheerleaders. Varsity Cheerleaders (I. to r.): Barb Pasco. Linda Darling, Debbie Gerdcs, Laurie Rcdfcrn
