ZW! - PEP RALLIES Big Sam pep rallies were much different than they used to be. Sleepy-eyed seniors, sophomores, and juniors, dragged themselves to school at 7:45 a.m. to support their football team. Since these pep rallies were in the morning, at- tendance was somewhat lack- ing, but the spirit was still there. Senior Tim Pettigrew com- mented, I think people Qeveryonej should be at all the pep rallies no matter what time they are. School spirit is a 24 hourjobf' Diane Moffatt, junior, said, Pep rallies are great. They show how much school spirit we have. More sophomores went to pep rallies last year than this year. I guess that just goes to show how much school spirit wejuniors have. Principal B. H. Remynse made it to school on time and even spent the time to put on his redjacket and Texas tie. The cheerleaders and bellguards were all there to keep that Texan spirit up. The band and the drill team added to the spirit with their music and dancing. Junior Robyn Garner said, I love a good pep rally. Being John Casson Jgeeping fire Spirif , with the band makes it a lot more fun! Not as many people come to the pep rallies as they did last year. lt kind of makes me mad! Kim Maldonado, senior, said, There wasn't as much en- thusiasm this year as there was lastyearf' Texan spirit was extremely high when the three classes of Sam were brought together to compete forthe spirit stick. Spirit contests, chants and the Texas fight song resounded throughout the gym. Another spirit booster of morning pep rallies were the skits and dance routines. I thought our students were very supportive, more so than last year. I think this made the pep rallies better this year than they have been in earlier years, Remynse said. Sophomore Harold Hoken- stad commented, Pep rallies show how much spirit our school has whether we win on the field or not. It makes the whole day worth comingtoschoolf' Karen Gratke Senior Well I'm a Long Tall Texan Bellguards Todd Williamson and Tim Pettigrewjoin to sing Brian Vogt's song. , ,- i ette V O Q- an Weekly football captains, Greg Edwards, Todd Atkins, and Mike LaForest, accept treats from the cheerleaders. 22 STUDENT LIFE John Casson
