Flogs The Flags dazzled Vikings once again with their fancy flagwork. The girls were featured performers at football and basket- ball games. pep rallies. and parades. Four of the five Flags went to camp in Santa Barbara this summer. Following the pre- cedent set by the entire spirit squad, the Flags received high honors in competition, and placed third with a routine they choreo- graphed. The Flags worked to finance their projects by holding a car wash and bake sale. raising S90.00. After football season, the girls passed their flags on to new Flags-to-be. They spent the spring sharing the secrets of their skills with their successors. ,,,,. ,... Ju-.- J.V. Yell Leaders-clockwise: Evelyn Clark, Suzy Bergere, Monica McCaIlister, Colleen Broslow.

The nine dedicated girls worked hard to inspire our foot- ball team to victory, and they had fun doing it! The girls overcame the limits of a too-small budget by fore- going a new banner and improv- ing their footwork and form. A mix-up in dates resulted in our girls ending up at the wrong summer camp! Undaunted, they had a great time. The Banners contributed im- measurably to the success of Samo's spirit squad.

Captains- Pat Monreal, Renee Lewis, Roslyn McCowan, Kim Randle. Sergeanette Officers-clockwise: Sherry Yamamoto. Diane Thurman, Cynthia Adkins, Suzan Watts, Judy Darling. Coptoins The Captains overcame a little turbulence while piloting the Drill Team this year. Due to the change in sponsors, the Captains found themselves organi- zing drill without adult assistance. They got it together in time to take the First Sergeants to camp - some- thing that's never been done before. F The Captains saw other innovations: tighter discipline and greater cooperation helped make the routines smoother and more imaginative. The dedicated girls devoted 9996 of their time whipping the drill team into superior shape. They didn't consider it a sacrifice. Coming in contact with such diversified personalities makes you aware of others' feelings. J

Songs, and we love it! So said one of the Songs,and observers had to agree with her. The spirited Songs led Vikings in cheers, and kept us smiling all year long. The Songs impressed the judges at summer camp, enough so that they were awarded Third Best District Routine. They were voted superior, and received the most points for overall excellence. The girls weren't in it just for the glory. They found that being a Song-enabled them to meet people, and face the world ublnq with a smile. ig g Songs- clockwise: Joanne Werner, Bev Shoff, Sherry Yamamoto, Conwyn Travers, Cynthia Adkins, Billie Herron. Q' , Majorettes- Diane Garvin, Virginia Arnold, Marianne Souza, Karen Baluda, Debbie Garvin. Mojorettes The Majorettes attained amazing dexterity in performance this year. Their routines proved to be intricate, complicated, and consistently well performed. Although unable to compete in parades. the Majorettes added their special brand of spirit to the pep rallies and halftime performances. At camp, the girls received a Best All Around trophy, and a second place trophy for their superior twirling ability. Four of the five Majorettes were Juniors, so Samo looked forward to another season with the talented twirlers.
