C eerleaders HE football season of 1952 was more of a challenge to the twelve members of the cheerleading squad than any that they had ex- perienced in the past several years. The heart- breaking Rye defeat. which destroyed a twenty- one game winning streak, was a crisis for both the football team and cheerleaders. but the en- thusiasm and loyal backing for the team the following Friday at Ossining was inspired greatly by the yelling twelve. Led by Denise and Nancy. the squad contracted laryngitis and froze. but kept up the spirit both at games and at lunch-time pep rallies. During the two-games-a-week basketball sea- son, hallways echoed with eighth period prac- tices, and gym classes stumbled over special formations the crew was preparing for approach- ing games. The squad always supported the team with their presence and hearty cheers. Gyms A and B shook with the intensity of Varsity HT-E-A-M, and rhythmic chants as the cheer- leaders yelled the team through many a tight spot. 'Til the final cartwheel and last Ready-hip. letis golf, the girls gave their all to the spirit and sportsmanship present at each of the S.H.S.'s athletic events. -W O Plmtus by Tlzruop 4' as it

Set-shooting. good rebounding. and strong defensive play were the keynotes of our win on January 9 over the New York School for the Deaf. Scarsdale led throughout the game. and only during a wild third quarter did N.Y.S.D. rally. Barry led the Raiders with fourteen points. Dave had twelve. Stu seven. and Bob six. The Raiders took the long trip to Darien on the 13th. and played hard before they squeezed out a -18-40 triumph. The game was closer than the score indicated since it was only in the last few minutes that Sc-arsdale. with tremendous inside shooting by sophomore Dan. netting eleven points. broke the game wide open. Concordia Prep was Sc-arsdale's next victim. The Raiders weren't clicking during the first halfg but in the second. Bob and John started hitting with long sets. and Stu made push- and jump-shots from the pivot. Good defense. excellent second-half shooting. and fine teamwork avenged last years 50-30 defeat. The pattern was the same throughout the rest of the season. Pelham. Bellows. Eastchester. Bronxville. and Rye all had to contend with the Raiders' strength under the boards-fine passing. good defense. excellent set-shooting. and combinations of inside shooting. Looking back. we can say it was another successful basketball season. Seo res SHS Opp. -1-L North Tarrytown -I-9 49 N. Y.
