Squad to root for All Star football Sandia's varsity sextet was named North cheerleaders for the All Star toot- ball game in August by placing second in the District cheerleading clinic in Los Alamos. Attending all school athletic events, leading pep assemblies and creating routines to be used at games kept the six girls active throughout the year. Sandians were treated to a special surprise on Halloween as they discovered D Wing had been decorated by the peppy squad in preparation for the Highland game, traditionally the grudge match of the year. The girls also dec- orated locker rooms and sponsored a dance during the football season. Elected by popular vote the previous spring, the varsity squad also won the Spirit Stick at the State Cheerleading Clinic. The award was the first for SHS teams. Mrs. Nancy Perry sponsored the spirit boosters for the sixth consecutive year. 237
