Enthusiasm and stick to it: These are the two main ingredients a person must have to be a cheerleader repre- senting the silver and black. Even though I was a cheerleader last year, I still had a lot to learn, comments JV Cheerleader Susan Oler. For a lot of these girls, they already knew about the strain and sacrifice that comes from being on a spirit squad. Since they tried out again and again after already knowing the ex- perience, it just proves that girls just wanna have fun! Try outs weren't as bad as I ex- pected, says JoAnne Jancich. Once my partner and I got out there to be judged, all the tension seemed to just vanish. Yes, being a cheerleader is great fun, and allows you to meet a lot of new people, but just remember, a lot of time, hard work, and extra prac- tices go into all of these girls lives. Cheers H yffi, Y .-

Flying high can be done without drugs or alcohol-at least it can be done for our first and finest Dance Company. The thirteen talented members became buddies fast when they found out they would lead all the dancers in the school in leaps and bounds. Dance Com- pany's first few trying experiences were to be featured in We,re So Excited, a winter dance produc- tion, and the Footloose Concert. To their great surprise, they actu- ally did fly high as the applause grew louder and they perfected their abilities with their president, Becky Pringle, Vice President Teresa Tarango, secretary-Lin- da Hoey, and treasurer-Diane Funk, the small group performed for school's around the Monterey Bay Area and attended Dancin' Between The Lines, a musical dance production in San Francisco. We hope Kelly Andrews and her Dance Co. keep the tradition of the beautiful art of dancing around, be- cause the energy and inspiration you feel from dancing can not be experienced by this select group, but by anyone, with a love of danc- ing. We'll be so excited to see what their plans for the future are! 4. Dance Company: Back Row: Becky Prin- gle, Nicole Carter, Marcus Knight, Mi- chelle Taft, Diane Funk, Phillip Jackson.
