SEARCHING Overlooking troubles, the cheerleaders looked at their teams’ long train of victories and were... Riding With Pride A t the end last year, Linda Cato resigned from her po- sition as spirit adviser. Dur- ing the summer, the spirit leaders practiced and held meetings without an adviser. For many weeks, the kids searched for someone to help them out; faculty and parents alike were consulted. At the begin- ning of the year, Patricia Wilson and Teresa Flores took over the job; Ms. Wilson had previously been the spir- it adviser at Leigh, and therefore brought with her many new ideas. At first, many of the parents and kids were disappointed and felt that with all the rules, the advisers were taking the fun out of cheering. Sherry Wul- fert believed that their ideas and what they want accomplished are good, but the way they go about it has caused more hostility than help.

Organizations TT4 Ms. Flores, and Ms. Wilson revealed that there was a problem with mak- ing the girls attend home frosh-soph games. The girls complained that this interfered with homework, studying, and practice. Ms. Wilson saw the need for more attendance at the games and thought that the best peo- ple to start with would be the spirit leaders. She thought that the honor system wouldn't work because the majority of the people would begin to slack off; it needs to be a rule. All but two cheerleaders were new. Maria Malloy cheered for frosh- soph for two years, and then stopped for a year. It was both Maria and Sherry Mallady's first year on varsity and they are both heads of their squads. Normally there would be five girls on each squad, but at the end of football season, Shawn Ross's dad made her quit after she was caught cutting. Although only the basketball squad went to camp, both groups spent countless hours prac- ticing during the summer weekday mornings. The squads only com- bined during homecoming games and CCS playoffs and showed con- siderable pride in their teams. Over- looking the confusion and hurt feel- ings caused by trouble with the new adviser, the cheerleaders thought about their teams' long train of victo- ries and felt that they were riding that train with pride. The football and basketball teams went further than ever before, the senior girls on the squads were grateful that all this suc- cess came in their last year. By Su- zanne Nelson.
