l32fEventsfPom Pon and Freshman Cheerleaders ' ' r ,,, , Freshman cheerleaders say cheering a lot easier than they anticipated The summer was not all play for the pom pon girls! They attended their traditional NCA Pom Pon camp at Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas, On the morning of going to camp, the girls woke up early to get ready to go, and discovered good- luck posters had been put all over the front of their houses by the A- team cheerleaders. The pom pon girls had been practicing since the end of school in preparing a home routine to present at camp. While they were at camp, they learned many routines which they performed at the half-time of games and got indi- vidually evaluated on the routines they learned. The girls received an excellent ribbon on their home rou- tine, a superior on their squad rou- tine, and a spirit stick at the end of the week for showing their enthusi- asm, spirit, and hard work during the week. For fund raising, the pom pon girls held a car wash and a garage sale. The freshman cheerleaders were hard at work last summer also, as they spent many hours practicing for the freshman games to come. For their money-raising event, they pro- vided a concession stand at a 'sum- mer park dance. Asked what she thought of cheering in high school, BRIGETTE HARTTER said We wer- en't as afraid to cheer, and it wasn't as hard as we expected.

First year demerits issued to members as new sponsor instigates changes During her first year as Pep Club sponsor, MISS JAN PATTON was confronted with many changes. The first change instigated was that any person nominated for Homecoming King or Queen could not be a candi- date for King and Queen of Courts. This created discussion among the student body, but the matter was put to vote and the issue passed. Demerits were introduced into the constitution. These were used to punish girls for any wrongdoings. Ten demerits were allowed before a girl would be kicked out. Pep Club officers and the sponsor issued de- merits. Drinking of alcoholic bever- ages in public while in uniform was the most severe offense, resulting in an automatic ten demerits and expul- sion from the club. PATTON summed up her first year of Pep Club as one filled with some problems. lt has been really fun though, and l hope that next year the problems will be eliminated. l am really glad that l got involved with a fundamentally-sound program. l can hardly wait until next year! ill Junior KIM BROOKS listens intently during an annual meeting held to discuss the constitu- tion. iPhoto by MECHELE OATHOLITJ Q25 During Spirit Week senior LISA RILEY helps the seniors win the hall-decorating con- test. iPhoto by NANCY MARTIN!
