Cheerleaders . . . Summer clinic at the University of Arkansas in Fay- etteville helped cheerleaders gear themselves lor the 1970-71 athletic year. The role of cheerleader did not end with the football and basket- ball seasons. Spring semester found the girls, assisted by Donna Zumwalt, already planning fund raising campaigns for next year. Did the cheerleader squad ac- complish more through the efforts of the group or of a single person? When each individual finished her part on a project then it was combined with everybody else's ef- forts on the project as a whole. If we didn't all work together to get things done, we wouldn't be a squad lDianne Crites, captainl. JUNIOR VARSITY Shirley Challberg Captain Kathy Pllkenton Co-Captain Terry Flynn Susan Gray Joy Kassab Martha Pflug Kathy Steen Nancy Stlpp Debbie Tinney Glenda Townsend We definitely did more as a group. lt takes all of us to accomplish much. By our combined efforts we can do almost anything lGlenna Garoutte, co-captainl. Student enthusiasm is not pro- moted by a 'single person'. It has to be the efforts of the entire group. A leader is needed, but a group of people to back him is also essential. ln short we stressed unity lLeslie Welshoferl. When the squad is first orga- nized, the cheerleaders do a lot of things together-going out to eat, having slumber parties and going to Miss Weaver's house. This is impor- tant because the squad must work together all year. We all have to get to know each other's personalities. Most of the girls establish great friendships lLiz Duncanl. . ,,,-r- ' B TEAM cheerleaders lstarting from bottoml Paula Ditch, Dixie Starmer, Phyllis Singleton, Dana DeMasters, Melinda Eberhard, and Cindy Williams, captain, posed ln formation labovel.
