Students at ortlo The Varsity Cheerleaders, under the direc- tion of Mrs. Mary Keene, led a spirited 1967-68 school year. All summer the varsity girls practiced various cheers and patterns. Co-captains Linda Haviland and April Kornmiller kept the squad lively and working hard. During the school year, the cheerleaders not only led the students at the athletic contests, but took charge of the pep assemblies. A com- mon sight after school in the west lobby was these ten girls, dressed in cutoffs and sweat- shirts, continually practicing and revising their cheers. Due to an opening on the squad, junior Vickie Seliba was chosen to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the year. All in all, the 1967-68 Varsity Cheerleaders had a most successful year and were once again that vital group that kept alive the North Farm- ington school spirit. Newest member on the squad, junior Vickie Saliba, spiritedly cheers for the NF Cagers. A 1- .Br Above: The Cheerleaders are caught at one of their goof-around moments.

F Sophomore ower Spirited b DIV Girls ... .. The Junior Varsity Cheerleaders perform on the track, sparking spirit in the stands and in their boys on the field. Class of '70 Fires-Up! New sparkle came to North Farmington's Jun- ior Varsity Cheerleaders under the direction of Miss Mary Ciochetti, first year faculty member. Contrary to past years, tryouts were held in early September and one squad was chosen. The eight selected girls helped fire up students at pep assemblies with cheers, and painted signs and displayed spirit to the J.V. teams at athletic games. Practice was usually three days a week and the girls were not allowed to use any varsity cheers. This called for creativity for an individual spirit from the sophomore cheerleaders. The squad expressed their views by saying, lt was a wonderful experience, and next year will be even better. ,. iss. 112 Above: Debbie Jeorger takes her place in one of the cheer for- mations.
