Your knees were knocking and you I couldn't seem to remember the routine. What did you 4 do? All of a sudden a hushed silence came over the crowd and four whistles were heard. The drums began to play. For some strange reason when the music started playing, everything curdling in your stomach seemed to float away and all you could think of was to do your best. All those months of learning routines and doing them over and over again began to pay off. As soon as the letter of acceptance was given out, the next day you were measured for your uniforms and all your props, Practices began the week after tryouts. The new girls were put into sections depending on their height. The new line officers began teaching the techniques for marching, kicking, and sharpness. Routines that would be performed during the year were also taught and everyone was getting ready for the new year. l,.. Q .Q ct, Captain and Captain-Elect Kim Williams and Michele Edelman.

0Vl'----- igh Each Monday the girls would try out for the routines that would be performed at the football games and pep rallies. After the ones who would perform were picked, the girls would practice until everything was perfect. The last pe rally has always been made for the seniors. The Senior Dixie Belles spent many hours preparing the routine they made up to I'm Losing You. The girls showed a different view of the Dixie Belle Style. After the pep rally the Juniors and Sophomores gave a party to the Seniors. Laughter and tears were all apart of the sad goodbyes. During Basketball season the girls became a lot closer. The ones that were wanting to try out for next years officers began making up their routines. Officer tryouts lasted two months. Routines were called out one after the other for the hopefuls to perform. After all the sweating was over with, the Dixie Belles were able to rest. Dana Mitchell.
