Miss Lang, the coach, commented that San- dra Cottrell, Penny Mann, Jo ,Anne Vaden, Debbie Davis, and Gwen Ferguson were outstanding performers on this year's team.

Junior Varsity Cheerleaders Arouse Spirit ot CHHS Not only did the J.V. cheerleaders encourage team support and school spirit, but they also set a fine ex- ample qf good sportsmanship for the student body. They encouraged attendance and enthusiasm at pep rallies. Continuous practice, selling ribbons, putting up signs, and helping in pep rallies were only a few of the activities sponsored by them which helped to spread school spirit throughout the student body.
