j-v. rally J.V. rally stirs up spirit For most of the year the J.V. Rally girls were closely involved with assisting the varsity squad. A good deal of spirit, dedication and persistance were required of the four; often their efforts went without recognition. Drill, sign painting, pep assemblies and ball games all called for cooperation and participation. These qualities were always very much in evidence.

varsity rally Camp helps Creativity, dependability, a sense of humor and real dedication were all prerequisites for the 1977-78 really squad. This pleasing combination of factors made rally active in student council, on the athletic field and gym, up on the balcony (where they practiced) and even in the classroom. Rally camp, held at Lewis and Clark College in July, gained the girls a top eight trophy and many ideas for yells and routines. Some of these ideas were put to good use during a successful Homecoming Week. It was at this time that the boys rally (who were assisted by the girls rally) felt they were the closest and considered it their greatest success. All the girls would hove repeated the experience if they had the chance. They also felt that the lack of feedback from the students was the only real problem. Varsity Rally 21

pep assemblies Sl its Featured Pep and activities were, on the average, pretty good. One of the most outstanding events was the Gong Show put on by the Varsity rally, J.V. rally, and Varsity girls rally, with the wrestling Pin Pals participating as well. The most appealing acts performed were a group of Sophomore boys acting as cheerleaders and performing a routine to the song the Stripper ; Brian Glendinning and Wayne Wellman doing scenes from Deadwood Dick ; and the Wrestling Pin Pals doing a Freaky dance routine to the theme song from Saturday Night Fever , ( Staying Alive ). An additional event that was well received was the Freeze Em skit. This involved a Sophomore, a Junior, and a Senior chosen from the audience; each had to sit on a block of ice and eat a bowl of ice cream through the entire assembly. It's easy to tell trom these two examples that pep assemblies were lively, entertaining, and exciting for both participants and viewers.
