5'Y-e-l-l Everybody Yell, Go Orioles!” Uughh! That was a familiar sound to students who attended pep tests. It was heard when cheerleaders did splits. But it was not heard this year. The crowd was more enthusiastic for the cheerleaders at pep tests and games. Out they came in their new white basketball uniforms and new black sweaters for hockey and soccer. Oohs and ahs were heard when Sandy Brynteson. senior, and Kathy Drake, freshman, did back-handsprings. They made it all look so easy. How did they do it? We practiced cheers every Wednesday after school and we worked for five weeks in the summer, said Peggy LaHammer, sophomore. We came to games early to warm up too. Cheers weren’t the only thing they worked on. Paper footballs and soccer balls were made to put on the players' doors, and their houses were tp'd during Homecoming week. Car washes and candy sales were also held to pay for uniforms. The cheerleaders kept up their vocal support and pep fests and games were added proof of what talent, outfits and spirit can do. ■ Franco Weinberg and Sue Pro-hofsky laugh at the antics of some fans. 28 Cheerleaders
