held by the cheerleaders for banquets for the players For all those that think cheerleading is a glory job, think twice. Last summer the varsity squad spent 5 days at camp. It was up at 7:30 every morning and worked all day til late hours at night. For all their efforts they received a first place trophy. During the hot summer months they practiced two or three times a week. They also practiced twice a week during the year working on new cheers and hand chants. They made numerous posters, football men and basketballs for the players lockers. They bought oranges for the teams and held pep rallies, banquetsand luncheons for the players. To raise the money for these projects, the cheerleaders held a bakesale and sold chocolate pollywogs and miniature LHS megaphones. The JV’s worked equally as hard as the varsity. They practiced once a week during the summer. During school they held practice two or three times each week. After having to wear hand-me-downs for several years, the JV ' s looked toward a new goal. New uniforms! They held bake- sales and sold candy to raise the money. Finally the money was raised and the uniforms arrived in time for basketball season. The JV squad was also a great help to the varsity. They ushered for pep rallies, participated in them and helped with the Homecoming bonfire. They also sold programs at football games. Not forgetting the JV teams, they were treated with oranges, apples, fireballs and lolly-pops from the JV cheerleaders V- 9 n r su Varsity Cheerleaders: Front row: Susan Vickie Plogger and Kay Moorhead, Co-head, qmig Emery, Alternate: and Tamara Hamric.
