Gei-ling In The spa!-ii Of Things!!! The senior twirlers were the main attraction during their perform- ance at the Thanksgiving Pep Rally. The Thanksgiving Pep Rally was held on the eve- ning of November 26, 1975. Routines were done by the twirling, color guard, and pom-pom squads. The l.V. 'and varsity cheerleading squads did new and exciting cheers that gave spirit to the audience. After the rally there was the traditional bon-fire. Both the pep rally and bon-fire raised spirit for the rivalry between South and North Plainfield during the Thanksgiving Day game. S.P.H.S. cheerleaders perform an unusual cheer that proved to be interesting and successful. The Tigerettes are all together as they begin their routine. The color guard keeps in time with the music. The football team enjoys the pep rally and looks forward to the victory over North Plainfield.
