IJUMINATE FALL AT MATHIS HIGH BANNERS, Pirate sweatshirts, and victory ribbons showed that students supported the Pirates as they went into district compe- tion. Activities of fall brought students' spirit and participa- tion to the forefront. All through the season, students showed their enthusiasm and support of the football team by turning out on Friday nights for the games. All attend- ance records at Pirate Stadium were broken when the Sin- ton Pirates came here to play the third district game of the season. The band added to spirit by playing at all of the games and pep rallies. The band also participated in A 86 I Band Day activities, a marching contest in Robstown, and District and Regional try-outs. The band played marches slower so that they could march six steps to five yards, something not done by any other band in this area. No majorettes marched in front of the band this year, only feature twirler Kathy Holmes. Cheerleaders and the pep squad led spirit of students by doing yells. The cheerlead- ers prepared for the year by attending a cheerleading camp at Sam Houston State Teachers College in Huntsville. A downtown pep rally was held the afternoon of the first dis- trict game with Refugio. Students marched in a body from the junior high school to the intersection of San Patricio Avenue and Bee Street. Townspeople joined students in showing the Pirates their support. The students, not letting their spirit and loyalty to the Pirates die with the end of the football season, carried it over into basketball season. Students saw a preview of basketball season at an intra- squad game. .3 11. it l ,, A ..,, -..ez 1 , was Eg E , s. i E 5 P4 , ,, W 5 3 K . I 6 r av I .
