78 Varsity Cheer Enthusiasm And Craziness: The Perfect Combo We want to promote so much school spirit that we will even embarrass ourselves, declared Denise Finnila when asked about the goals of this year's cheer squad. Clear- ly, an abundance of enthusiasm was evident as crowds of spirited students witnessed the crazy antics of eight over-zealous girls doing their stuff on large white boxes. As Anne Mussman remarked, We wanted to be apalIing. They were. The mania began last June when the newly elected group learned togetherness and sharpness at cheer camp. Their perfect chemistry was recognized when they were voted as the most spirited group by the other one hundred girls and awarded the honor of placing in the top two groups in excellence. The competition was stiff and required much work as Michele Vance recalled, lt was excruciating pain throughout the week, but it was worth it. The squod's commitment continued throughout the summer with practices four nights a week. The school alma-mater was also written to provide more unity within the school. Advisor Marilyn Mathisen also commented on the squod's energy, lt was fun working with such an enthusiastic group. J. Coklccio pi ,F-ri l K.LandBfl1 ee . i K. Landetl 2. 1.

They Formed A Name Not To Be Forgotten Long hours of planning and hard work were typical attributes of the twelve Rally Board Members. The purpose of Rally Board was, as the name implied, to rally school spirit. Their first major contribution in bringing unity to the school was the sponsoring of the Homecoming dance. lt was a hectic week, reminisced senior Julie Coluccio, but thot's what made it all worthwhile. They also organized the rooter busses that com- muted rigorous football fans to and from the football games. For additional fund raisers, Rally Boarders continued the This Bud's For You sale where rosebuds could be delivered to students in class as requested by the sender. According to President Chris Silvey, the larger pOrT of their work was devoted to the never ending task of sign painting. These colorful murals were decoratively displayed in key visual locations on various campus premises and football stadiums. We were always busy, commented Chris Silvey, but we always kept busy with one gool in mind. That was to form a name for Kentridge in the world of high schooIs.
