Kerry’s caper T he spirit level was high as the Homecoming pep rally got underway and rumor circulated that a star football player was going to dance with the cheer- leaders. As it turned out. the rumor was true and Kerry Henderson, a senior, joined the cheerleaders and danced to the tune of ‘‘Tricky. Charisma Berry told me that the cheerleaders had something planned for the pep rally and asked me if I'd like to help out.” ex- plained Kerry. Since I catch on'to dancing pretty easy. I decided to go ahead and go for it.” The cheer- leaders and Kerry prac- ticed for two days. Sherry Larson, junior cheerleader, described Kerry as cool and fun to work with. The dance was the most exciting part about the pep rally, Sher- ry added. After the dance, Mr. Ed Wachtel stood up and went over to the microphone to begin his pep talk. After the game is over and you walk off the field, everyone will tell you that you played great. The only one who really knows, though, is you. If you do the best you can then you know that. So boys, lets go out there and play to the best of your abilities so that when you look in the mir- ror tomorrow you can say.'Hey, I played a great game' and you'll be proud. The game that night against Dobie was intense. Brian Gore, a junior, made a succesful 50-yard pass to Lee Fowler who then made the winning touchdown with only seven seconds left on the clock. The team felt that we had to win this game, Mark Giles, a senior, said, Nobody likes to lose,” he continued, especially their Homecoming game. (continued) 14 . . . Homecoming
