Nerves were on edge, and some- what of a panic broke out among the girls who had been on the Varsity squad before and were fearful of being eliminated. Early the next morning tears of ioy were mixed with those of regret for both the girls who had been chosen, and for those who had not. Andrea Gibbs was chosen as captain and Helen Roberts as co- captain. New rules and regulations were established and the Varsity Squad began to do their iob as Niagara- Wheatfield cheerleaders. Tryouts for a new J.V. Squad were held on De- cember 5th and 6th of 1961. Again the atmosphere was one of apprehension as the iudges proceeded to choose five regular J.V. cheerleaders and one substitute. The six lucky girls turned out to be Anna Wadsworth, captain, Barbara Parkhill, Linda Stout, Kari Palmer, Sue Critelli, and substitute Pat Peruse. Our Niagara-Wheotfield cheerleaders have done a tremendous job in promoting school spirit and enthusiasm. Dressed in smart black and white, the girls, under the direction of Miss Schuessler, have cheered the football and basketball teams to many victories. W, Time Outl W 4 1 1
