RESTING DROWSILY, after a long practice session are these majorettes. Pat Nichols, Marilyn Joslin, and Beverly Evans. Behind them are Pat Johns, Judy Boyd and Janet Tavlin. Marched During Each of the The Girls Half-Time Sold Football Shows Programs WITH BOOTS POLISHED, batons cleaned, and uniforms pressed, the “B” Corps marched at all the home football games. They are Susie Kingsbury, Barbara Ringer, Judy Hickman, and Sharon Dixon. SHOUTING, LAUGHING. AND WORKING, the Majorettes have gone through the year. In satin and in velvet they have marched at the football games. Only after hours of twirling, practicing, and working were they ready for their first half-time show. After primping, polishing boots, and powdering their noses the Majorettes strutted onto the field. Then, and only then, they appeared in the colors of their Alma Mater. Selling programs of all the home football games was one of their less glamorous jobs. Both squads passed out programs at the concerts which the Band gave for the public. The “A” Corps wore velvet, while the “B” Corps wore satin. The “B” Corps is a training corps. All of the girls must serve one year in it before being promoted to the “A” Corps. The majorettes marched with the band in several parades this year. Among these were the Orange Bowl and Lauderdale High’s Homecoming. FOUR MEDITATING BEATNIKS, Judy Hickman, Sharon Dixon, Barbara Ringer, and Susie Kingsbury, sit and think after a big half-time show during which they wore these outfits.
