- Tg Hi ile, 13 PEP RALLIES SPUR EXCITEMENT Spirit played a big part in the success of the football season this year and pep rallies played a big part in the spirit. With the ideas of the cheerleaders and the cooperation from the student body and Mr. Pendleton, several pep rallies were held which brought enthusiastic results and support for the team. The varsity Cheerleaders also spon- sored a bonfire with the Brookville Bees serving as fuel at the jubilation of many Devil fans. Pep rallies and bonfires gave everyone a chance to participate and show their spirit for the Red Devils. Roger Lee and Brian Kidd, active members of the band, help provide music to pep rallies under the strict direction of Mr. Brice.
