A typical day in the life of a JV Rally girl was often hectic. They went to school put on the pinups which they had made the week before and discussed what to get the guys for treats. One time they used their fund money to buy carnations which they pinned on the team members personally during reg. When the games began the girls started out with cheers like Are you ready for the Marshall Minute- men? Keeping the crowd enthusiastic the rally asked the crowd to reply in the famous cheer Give me an Ml At halftime they introduced themselves to the opposite rally and gave them each a candy bar to welcome them. The JV Football Rally cheered to keep their fans riled up during halftime. Even if the team lost, the rallies stood behind them an the way with alot of support and a We Love Our Team cheer. Home games were much more fun than away games because we had more fans, stated Lissa Peisley, JV Football Rally member. In order to be able to survive these busy days the Basketball Rally started working in July when they held their first car wash. In August they began discussing what they wanted to do for pinups and posters. At the begin- ning of school they began practicing and making up cheers. The JV Football Rally began their practices in the early summer and at the end they made pinups at the daily doubles. They spent their summer doing bake sales and car washes with the JV Basketball Rally. An exciting change for the Freshman Rally was that they were able to participate in away games. Freshman Rally member Susan Hickman stated Rally helped me gain a lot of confidence, Being a Frosh Rally advisor for some years, Barbara Peyton noted that, Each rally member has her own personality. At the first game the girls knew only two cheers but near the end of the season they could cheer through a whole game without stopping for a breath. JW, Frosh Rallies . . rs.r ,-..

l l Talented, Spirited M-Men Y Varsity Marshall's baseball team had a lot of talent and spirit and it looked as though the season was going to be a winning one. However, the Minutemen ran into trouble early, losing their first ten league games and ending the season with a 2- 16 record. The team won a game at Wilson with a score of 8-2. In that game, the M-Men came out in the first inning and scored four runs, and after that the Wilson team was trying to figure out what had happened. We owed those guys that, stated Senior Ron Actkin- son after what happened the last time when Wilson was awarded the winf' After the M-Men were leading 3-0, behind Actkinson's five inning no-hitter, an M-Men player, Kelly Gentry, was disqualified for not sliding into second base on a double play attempt. Marshall was forced to forfeit since the M-Men roster had been reduced to nine men for that game. l l l Leading the team in hitting were Seniors Mark Cavan- augh, who had a .452 batting average, and Rich Fayette who had a .473 batting average. Both players were select- ed to the all-city first team. With the effort and determina- tion the Minutemen showed this year, we should have won a lot more games. Many of them were very close but a lot of times we ended up on the short end of a 6-4 or 2-1 game, stated Coach Ed LeBaron, who was in his first year of coaching for the Minutemen. Even though the season proved to be a trying one, the Minutemen took it one game at a time and learned from each game. First baseman Ron Actkinson was honorably mentioned along with Mike Flye, junior, and Jim Dozark, sophomore as all city players. We had a lot of fun, the team was really close, and we tried our best, that's the most any team can do, summed up Fayette.
