POP KIDS Pop Kidsn-doesn,t sound very familiar and it isn't, for this is the first time in Rochy's history that pop has been sold as a sep- arate project, Its success was due to the unselfish efforts of those who watched over the pop till game time, those who sold it, and those who gathered the empty bottles. Little would have been ac- complished without the harmony and cooperation shown by all. We of the Senior Class and Mirage Staff wish to thank Miss With- row for her willing, capable supervisiong and all those who assisted, for their contribution to the publishing of the Mirage. ,-- 27 , ,

MIRA HOT DOG GIRLS Any more hot dogs ready?U Give me a bunln Hurry up, fill my basket so I can go. Those are familiar phrases in the kitchen where the hot dogs were made. This year, due to the candy shortage, hot dogs were sold to raise money for the Mirage. With the help and advice of Miss Naugle, our Home Economics teacher, it was a big success. Cooperation on the part of the girls and their wil- lingness to work proved a great factor in making the hot dog sale the success it was. It wasn't an easy or an enjoyable job to sell those hot dogs. The girls ignored the pessimistic persons, and in this way they were able to overcome all the problems that arose. The long and tireless work of the girls will always be remembered. We of the Mirage Staff wish to thank the girls for their splendid work, lVliss Naugle for her fine supervision, and Mrs. Racinger for the use of her home. They have helped a great deal to make the Mirage this year the Hne book it is. Row 1: Steele, Weaver, Miss Naugle, Mignanelli. Row 2: Racinger, Beglin, Wallace, Walther.

CHEERLEADERS Row 1: Scherer, Fisher, Row 2: Sayre, Caputo. Row 3: Pierce, Ferguson. Row 4: Sheline, Hood. Fame has been won on the football field and the basketball floor, but without the efforts of our cheerleaders victory coulcln't be won. Through thick and thin or howling gale the echos of our cheerleaders ring through the crowd. Each week they carefully plan for Friday,s pep- meeting. When the day of the big game rolls around. pep, vim, and vigor are added to the crowd with Gloria7s pep talks, Donna's encour- agement, and Audrey's pep, spurred on by the enthusiasm of the five newcomers: Eleanor Fisher, Norma Ferguson, Shirley Pierce, and the two masculine members, Sonny,' Hood and Otis Sheline. Despite snow, sleet, rain, or hail, the blue and white clad figures of our faithful group can always be seen. Football season passes swiftly, but the work of the cheerleaders never ceases. Their thoughts are soon turned toward basketball season, when their work increases with two games a week: Our gal- lant crew has a difficult job to find bigger and better cheers, planning pep meetings, and urging fellow students to back up the squad. They closed the season with their hard cheering at the championship game. FOOTBALL MANAGERS I-leuring, Swearinger, Alberts, Klinglehoefer, Geist. And now we come to that little-known, but vital branch of the football team, the managers. They are the ones who do the work which keeps the team going. Their jobs range anywhere from lining off the field and changing cleats before the games, to checking equipment and giving first aid to cuts and bruises. Although the boys didn't have a senior manager, who is the natural leader, the two junior managers, Sonny I-Ieuring and Eugene Geist, both back from last year, took over the job of running the managing staff, along with the splendid cooperation of Sarge Alberts, Chuck Tarazano, Dick Klinglehoefer, and Jim Swear- inger. We can hardly say too much for these boys who are as vitally interested in the game as any foot- ball player, and who are willing to perform their tedious tasks for the sake of winning the game and not for hope of glory.
