vv OUT OF FOCUS Long weekends, little mistakes, big parties, loads of fun — that ' s the Annual Staff. Every year a new group of sophomores, juniors, and seniors put their heads together for a winning combination called the Raider annual. The time involved (one class period a day, after school, and weekends) seems minimal compared to the fun and the end result. Each summer the staff attends a workshop at Texas Tech University. At Tech, new ideas are formulated, the theme is selected, and awards are given. This year, the Raider staff received two awards — first and second place for layout design. Focus your attention on the Raider annual and then enjoy it. Catherine Coyle — Editor-in-Chief, and Mrs. Carolyn Dean — Sponsor.

CHEERLEADERS KEEP SPIRIT HIGH Instantly upon entering L. D. Bell, a person becomes aware of a strange force that grips the body and mind and swirls one into an eternal whirlpool. The force is Raider spirit, and at the center of the whirlpool are the cheerleaders. Their vibrant energy radiates through the school. Soon the student body and faculty absorb the energy and pass it along until everyone is bursting with enthusiasm. Every Friday afternoon, the gymnasium pounds with the roar of human voices above all the clarity of eight boisterous girls. At each pep rally, the cheerleaders stomp, clap, and scream L. D. Bell into a wild frenzy. Everything is a blur of blue and white signs, pom-pons, and uniforms which set the colorful tones of a Raider pep rally. When the roar has subsided, the cheerleaders are still hard at work preparing for the next game, the next pep rally. Homecoming, or new ribbon sales. Upon leaving L. D. Bell one might say, Keep that spirit up! Don ' t worry, the cheerleaders know how to do iti Kendi Marshall — Senior A — Mrlunif Bnk — Senior B — .Angela Benson — Junior CHEERLEADERS 28
