When there was a problem going on It would be brought up to the group and solved without foo much hassle, sald Kearson Malmgren. At cheerleadlng camp this year varslty pulled in three superior, one excellent, and the Superior trophy. At camp they learned new rally and cheerleader routines that they per- formed thls year.

Frankly, Rowena Hilado said, the flag glrls are excluded from many things the cheerleaders do. The squad attended camp at Santa Cruz and won a Superlor trophy, Spirit Stick twice and took one home, and an Excellent banner. Almost each girl recelved a Superlor ribbon in routine evaluatlon. Being a flag twlrler, also known as a flag girl, can be Interesting and even amusIng, sald Rowena Hllado.

This year's group consisted of 8 selected members, 3 returning and 5 new members. Throughout football and basketball season, the song- leaders cheered and performed routines for the Pirates at games and rallies. During the summer the song- leaders attended U.S.A. camp which is a spirit camp for all spirit squads In Santa Cruz.
