— Advisor Mrs. Joan Barton On many late nights after school, freshly-paint- ed signs lay scattered across the empty floor of senior hall with several girls and boys crouched stiffly over the paper. The dedicated few who so often held sticky-wet paint brushes in hand were the twelve who also stood faithfully before fans at o every Meadowdale pep assembly, football game, A and basketball game. RAISES SPIRIT The Meadowdale cheerleading staff, led by Cheer Queen Marcia Harrell and Song Queen Kim Bingham, coaxed tre- mendous spirit and enthusiasm out of an often lukewarm student body. The spirit stick, which initiated exciting class competition during each pep assembly during the year, was won by Meadowdale’s cheer squad at the 1966 summer cheerleader conference. Besides the difficult routines perfect- ed and presented by the cheerleaders and songleaders, the school mascots Robin Klein and Mary Leahy, and yell leaders, Doug Pittis and Doug Aukland, added humor and distinction to Meadowdale’s rooting section. Without the hard work and lively enthusiasm of the cheer squad, Meadowdale’s spirit and loyalty to both the teams and school could not have climbed so high.

This group is comprised of those girls who have earned a mini- mum of 1000 points in their G.A.A. activities. One of Let- terwomen’s main activities this year was sponsoring homecoming. Working stead- ily for over a month preparing for the dance, the girls efforts produced a successful and memorable homecoming. MARLENE MAXWELL MISS WEEKS MRS. WALLS For another year the screams of enthusiastic girls have echoed through the gym. These girls who turned out for G.A.A. strove not only for enjoyment but for the development of skills as well. During the various sports-days and playdays held with other schools, the girls had an opportunity to exercise these skills in competit ion. PATTY BURKE
