TEAM CHEERLEADERS: Sus ie Sheila Ryan, Barb Petrie, Gaile Pep Band Jim Faulkner, Jack Sabol, Steve Wise, Janet Sabol, John Memmer warm up at a practice session. Central Catholic does not have a symphony orchestra to bring the message of music to all, but it does have an enthusiastic pep band. Though newly established, it has gained in stature and has become as such an important part of the games. It brought the music of happiness and excitement and of sadness andtears. Enthusiasm was often restor- ed by the band's rousing beats. Tedious work, long practice, enduring patience, and undying zeal were among the important contributions of the band members. They belong high on C.C.'s list of those contributing to the promotion of school spirit.
