FHS Cheerleaders began preparations for a busy fall season in early summer. With the help of advisers Tom and Betty MacGregor, Co-captains Sue Madden and Sue Wright led the team in developing ex- citing new cheers and routines. The squad exhorted enthusiastic fans to cheer louder for soccer and football athletes. Marching in the Thanksgiving Parade, which they sponsored, and cheering at both pep rallies capped the spirit season. Between and af- ter games, the girls sold Clipper buttons to boost school spirit, co-sponsored the winter festival dance with the Pep Squad, and seniors Andrea Toran, Sue Madden, June Miller, Betsy Gregory, and Sue Wright hosted the annual football banquet.

FALL AT F.H.S. Fall at Falmouth High School is a time for beginnings, for renewing old friendships and building new ones: oppor- tunities present themselves. As well as having a wide variety of new courses to deal with, each student has the option of selecting to participate in one or more of the many extra-curricular activities available. The performing arts begin another season of dramatic presentations and festivals. The chorus and orchestra begin rehearsals and work toward concerts and festivals. The band practices for concerts, festivals, and Saturday afternoon football games. The majorettes, pep squad, color guard, and cheerleaders add color, vivacity, and spirit to various sports events. Soc- cer, Football, Field Hockey, and Cross-country teams work hard to meet the challenges brought by renewed rivalries which beckon triumphs in contests of wit, skill, and strategy.

The marching band is a colorful part of Fall at FHS. Under the direction of Mr. Dennis Marotta, the members spend one hour every other day in school rehearsing the music for the games. In addition, they devote every Saturday of the football season, often braving mis- erable weather, rehearsing music, perfecting old marching routines and learning new ones to play for all of the games, at home and away. The band, in its handsome maroon and white uniforms, helps generate and sustain enthusiasm, excitement, and good will. The musical proficiency displayed by the individual members and the total ensem- ble is the result of years of training, practice, and family and school support, often beginning as early as fourth grade. A popular addition this year was the incorporation of “The Hustle” into a routine. The band, always an important public relations agent, was a vital part of the in-school rally, the Thanksgiving pre-game rally, and the Christmas parade. This hard-working group receives strong support from the Band Parents Organization and the citizens of Falmouth.
