The Mao ilficent Musical Note ... launching into a breath- taking march- ing routine. Look at them move, with such grace, and rhythm. 92 VJreetings, ladies and gentlemen, from spectacular Falcon Field in the heart of Southern California. Half-time festivities are now upon us, and for your entertainment pleasure, the Drill Team and Tall Flags Squad will now perform. The Dnll Team, an assemblage of 27 talented and graceful girls, has per- formed in the Miss Drill Team USA com- petition, besides appearing regularly at football games and pep assemblies. Twirling their flags in harmony, the Flag Squad has been praised for its abili- ty to move together. They always seem to manage to enjoy themselves while performing. Now the groups are launching into a breathtaking marching routine. Look at them move, with such grace and rhythm. All of them seem to keep per- fect tempo with one another. Both the Flag Squad and the Drill Team have marched in various parades, including the Anaheim Halloween Pa- rade, which, incidently, was televised. The crowd roars as they display their musical note, followed by a beautiful chorus line. They end their routine amidst the cheering of the crowd. It was an excellent performance that I ' m sure none of us will soon forget.

Audiences Stunned Time After Time •ome people say they move with more grace than gazelles, while others say they glow like stars. I say they ' re awesome. A union ot eleven mastertui and artis- tic girls, innovative routines and an abundance ot endurance produced a dance team that astounded audiences time after time. They not only per- formed at pep rallies, but engaged in the USA and State Competitions. Specta- tors were also stunned at invitied perfor- mances. Practice was an important element behind the team ' s success. Long hours of stretching exercises and rehearsals were crucial to achieving the grace and flow in routines. Specializing in a con- temporary style of dance, they created routines that included jazz and modern moves. Under Ms. Jones, their advisor, the girls worked for a harmonious ryth- mic affect. I think it ' s safe to say they definitely succeeded. The talents of each individual girl were fused together to make one ex- traordinary team. Stacy Forney, cap- tain, praised her teammates. The team this year consisted of girls with great at- titudes. They worked very hard at prac- tices to do well, and they accepted con- structive criticism. I always felt excited to come to practice with the team, she remarked. I admire the dance team because, al- though their grace may seem effortless, dancing is known to be one of the most grueling arts. This year ' s success should lay an excellent foundation for prosper- ous future years. ■ • 1. Practicing their strenuous routines, the donee team members strive to ochiere perfect unity. 2.
