Pepsters Generate Enthusiasm Early in the summer the Songleaclers begin preparing themselves for the school year, making up routines to most of the standard school songs. The 1967-68 Songleaders also worked to make money which would help pay their way to camp. A bottle drive and a H1920 Bikini Car Washl, netted each girl about 359.00 to help pay expenses. The hills above Santa Cruiz, California, set the scene for our Songleaders' summer training camp. Here they gained experience and new ideas to aid them in the coming year. Gayle Chase, Head Songleader, who represents the group on cabi- net, says that, During the year the Songleaders attend every league game in football and basketball, help plan for pep rallies, and are each individually active in extra curricular clubs and activities. ,- The pepsters hold their breath in the excitement of a touchdown .... Is the kick good? It's good! . . . The crowd reacts with enthusiasm, the band strikes up, and the Yell Leaders run back to lead the happy rooters in victory cheers. Peppy Liz Ramos, a Yell Leader, is no exception to the fact that this year's pep- sters were full of vitality. 10 Tim Branham, Titan quarterback, received a gin- gerbread man wearing his own uniform number 'rom an i ic'an . n e 'v e ore e n t S dW kl clO th da,bf thloh Glenn game each member of the football team re- ceived a cookie from the pepsters. it f I 5

I Song Leaders and Yell Leaders Keep Titans Cheering During Sports Events Our six fun-loving yell leaders have devoted many hours alter school to organize Pioneer's spirit, Their duty of boosting our teams on to victory has not always been an easy job. They organized pep rallies. made up new yells, and spent long hours after school learning them. They did quite a bit toward organizing a good cheering section, making it one of the best Pioneer has ever seen. Good yell leaders donlt just happen overnight. During the suinincr our squad went to training camp at Redlands University. At cainp they did justice to the Pioneer name fl g'Come on, really yellll' encourages Chris Richardson and Marty liozano, two spirited ineinbers of the yell leading squad. Tully Titan. the school,s mascot, is learning to be a yell leader too. and brought back several awards, in- cluding one third-place ribbon which the yell leaders hold inost remarkable of all. This was earned one day after poor Liz Ramos had stubbed her toe. She eouldn't perform so the remaining four struggled through their routine without her, and the Titan Yell Lead- ers were most surprised to find they had rated third out ol fourteen other schools. 7 K K T ,rf I Y ,aff LE h . ., 1 fir' T N ern I 4 , nw, , ta--f' 7 'N i f 'il T is M an-5' 71' ..1gQf1 aims f, N Wgkl S1 I' ff gferg K -' 4 I l if!
