Cheerleaders Help Push Fliers Toward Victory To become a cheerleader, you must first try out in front of several faculty members. They choose ten girls who will then try out before the student body. These girls are selected according to per- sonal appearance, skill in jumps, arm movements and spirit. Finally, the student body selects from these ten candidates the varsity cheerleaders. The Flandreau High School cheerleaders were kept busy boosting our guys to victories through- out the year. Before the season started the girls attended a potluck supper at Chester with their adviser, Mrs. Hellerich. All the cheerleaders in the new conference were present, and they ex- changed a few ideas. The girls also attended the Cheerleading Clinic at Brookings. The A” cheerleaders are pictured at the TOP. FROM FRONT TO TOP they are Bette Hass, Debbie Whipkey, Debbie Carr, Margo Headrick, and Jackie Olson. The wrestling cheerleaders are pictured in the CENTER.
