4 When hockey is mentioned, you probably ghink of winter. However, the hockey cheer- leaders start practicing in the heat of the Summer. lt seems strange that the squads start so early, because the hockey season does not begin until November. Senior Mi- chelle Perry commented, We begin prac- tice so soon because there is so much to be done. Once school starts, there are a lot of conflicting activities, so it's nice to have a head start from summer. I The varsity hockey cheerleaders were led by captains, Seniors Laura Horstman and Karin Levitt. The squad consisted of juniors and seniors who cheered the team on with their spirit. Along with leading the fans, the girls gave the hockey team support. The varsity hockey team had a good season, which made cheering a lot of fun for the girls. Junior varsity captains were Junior Jean Giebe and Sophomore Lori Peddrick. This was only the second year for the J .V. squad, but it proved once again to be successful. The squad was made up of five freshmen, three sophomores, and four juniors. It is not limited to any specific grade, which accounts tor the variety in age. The juniors did not seem to mind cheering for J .V.. Giebe said, lt was fun, and it gave us experience to try out for varsity next year. Both the varsity and The junior varsity squads were sponsored by Donna Smith and Mary Hall. Their time and support helped strengthen the squads, adding to the success of the season. , 7 X . ff if ll is 4- ,i j .X fi ' jets. its if 5 , V 'W -f f ' -- jr P PM vi J v Front Row.

DISTRIBUTIVE EDUCATION CLUBS of AMER- ICA were open to anyone enrolled in a marketing class. The goal of DECA was to give students better marketing career opportunities, create responsibility through com- munity affairs, show creativity and build leadership skills. Steve Urbach and Susan Hoffman were the spon- sors of the group. DECA was also involved in many activities. An inner city day care center visit, a district picnic, Katherine candy sale, Career Day, and the sale of Ghost-O-Grams were a few. Competitions were also a very important part of Deca. Students could start their own marketing research projects, which gave them a chance to show creativity with sales ability. They competed against 10 other high schools in the area. VOCATIONAL INDUSTRIAL CLUBS of AMER- ICA was sponsored by Renee Boyd. lts purpose was to develop student leadership skills through hands on train- ing in technical, industrial and health care education. VICA also took part in such activities as selling candy bars for various charities participating in Old Newsboy Day, and sponsoring an employers appreciation ban- quet. VICA also had competitions in March. They compet- ed in Districts, followed by state competition in April. For those students enrolled in business courses or interested in the business field, there was FUTURE BUSINESS LEADERS of AMERICA. sponsored by Ann Moss. Similar to DECA and VICA, FBLA enou- craged students to have an active role in leadership positions. Activities that FBLA took part in were Fund raisers for the Post-Dispatch's hundred neediest families, and a Christmas party for the children at the Salvation Army Residence Children's home. To help finance their activi- ties, FBLA sold calenders. In order to get a clearer understanding of the way Monsanto was operated, they toured the facilities. With these three business oriented clubs, students were able to become involved in some aspects of the business world. Student Life VICA officers-Front Row: David M.
