ust imagine Imagination was the key in '83 Working with 43 girls at one time is definitely an exper- ience, sponsor Mala Ayers said. You just couldn't imagine Q if what it's really like. These words, spoken by Miss IZ Ayers, lead the mind to ji! gf wonder. But the general con- ,gih census was that taking time to L5 , 'l'i,g, imagine makes all the differ- ence in the world. This year we've done a lot of new things for the Charger causef, Captain Cynthia jolly commented. We started with a private clinic during summer practice. The unity we gained from this has carried us through a lot of problems. This broke the tradition of attending camp at Southern Methodist University and apparently was a success. We also did some neat things for the football team, Cynthia added. We have a better attitude about things. This shows in the things we do and the way Miss Ayers and the other teachers act toward us. Whether cheering at a ball game, decorating the gym, or arriving at 6:00 in the morning for early practice, the year held many surprises. The Chargettes had only one thing to say. We can imagine! - By Marla Hardwick A WORK OF ART - Painting banners for the football locker room was one way the Chargettes expressed their apprecia- tion.

Spring sport Spring athletes perform all year They played in the spring, but 'I V golf, tennis, and track team X ' members were a whole lot more K than fair weather jocks. Their year-long conditioning pro- grams and their experience, ' QEQI . which often dated back to ' T elementary school days, indicat- ed a total commitment. The nine-member golf team, coached by Bill Dunaway and Gary Davis, played one tournament a week through March and April, and finished the season with the AAAAA Championship tour- nament in May. Coach Dunaway described the team as young, but competitive, and junior Bart l..and's pre-season prediction was optimistic. We should be able to compete pretty well and hang tough, he said. We may not win all the time, but we'll be alright. Bart, who began playing golf five years ago, added that the win some, lose some description is typical of golf. One day you shoot real well, and the next day maybe you don't, he said. That's what makes it a challenge, and it's a different challenge every day. Good golf player's are both made and born, according to sophomore Tory Cruse. You have to be born with a little talent, he said. For example, people who are born with a natural swing don't have as far to go to learn to play well. While golf is an individual sport, the team aspect is very much a part, Tory said. Everybody gives you a lot of support, he said. You even get support from the people on the other teams. - By Chris Glass WI-lERE'S MY CADDIE? - junior Bart Land and sophomore Tory Cruse get their gear together for a game of golf in the rain. Although the weather wasn't the greatest, it didn't stop the two determined golf pros from getting their weekly practice. Photo by Robert Miller lOZ!Spring Sports
