Girls Have Equality At Last 1 Girls' basketball was a new sport this season and was complete with District, Region, and State Tournaments. Girls finally had equal rights with the boys when it comes to basketball. Practice for girls' basketball began a couple of weeks before school started. Twenty-eight players joined basketball compet- ing for places on the team. The girls’ first season consisted of ten games scheduled in between football games, so as not to conflict with them. September 9 was the first game played against Forbes, North Dakota. The girls had the first-game jitters, but by the second game were ready to beat Eureka. Coaching the girls’ basketball team was Paul Kindelspire and assisting him was Mrs. Betty Maule. Nancy Zelmer was the team’s student manager. New uniforms and warmup jackets were purchased for the girls. Graduation took four girls from the team. This year’s record consisted of three wins and seven losses. The team went to the Regions and placed third. Front row: (left to right) Jennifer Rau, Candice Lcchner, Pam Weiszharr, student manager Nancy Zelmer. Laura Erdmann. Charlene Yost, and Charlotte Yost.

Cheerleaders Lead Pep Club Pirate pride was very apparant as the energetic cheerleaders led enthusiastic fans throughout the athletic season. In order to learn new cheers, different formations and various methods of inducing pep, the cheerleaders participated in a clinic in Aberdeen held on September 5. To earn money for the cost of their sweaters the cheerleaders raffled off an afghan, held sock-hops, and sponsored a car wash. The strong pep club backed the cheerleaders whenever new chants developed. Their school spirit was also displayed as they helped the cheerleaders make signs for various athletic functions. Many of the members attended all of the home sports events. Dues for pep club were fifty cents. This money, contributed by the members, helped pay for a pep bus to Langford, the last basketball game of the season. Officers of the pep club were Kathy Neuharth, President; Sue Liebel, Vice-President; and Carolyn Sieh, Secretary-Treasurer.
