CHEERLEADERS FRONT: Chris Widenmaier, Judy Roedding, Terry Slezack. BACK: Liz Liscko, Joanne Fischer, Gayle Thomas, Jill Meendering. The fall of 67 saw thirty girls try out for Cheerleading. Although the matter of choice was a difficult one, eight girls were chosen to cheer our teams to their victories—one being the smashing defeat of Central at the Red Feather Kick Off Football Game. We picked up a second for our efforts in the Perth-Huron Cheerleading contest. For the first time since our school opened we had a chance to go to a Cheerleading clinic in Toronto. We all enjoyed the day very much and feel it was most helpful to us through out our year of cheering. This year, much more emphasis was put on action with our cheers and we were all so pleased with our new uniforms. Rah I Rahl. Rahi for the Cheerleaders. Definitions Trigonometry: When a lady marries 3 men at the same time. Octopus: A person who hopes for the best, or an 8 sided cat Skeleton: A man with his inside out and his outside off.

THE QUALITIES OF GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP Courage Truthfulness Ability Self-control Discipline Self-respect Consideration Honesty Perseverance Loyalty Self-confidence Brotherhood Enjoyment Physical fitness Co-operation Courtesy Fairness Boldness An excerpt f rom one of Sir Henry Newbolt ' s most famous poems, Play up and play the game is the true meaning of sportsmanship. It is the motto of the true sportsman whether he is on the ball field, the tennis court, the golf course or at a desk or machine. To be a real sportsman one must be a cheerful loser and a generous winner. Playing the game means revealing loyalty, courage, enjoyment and above all fairness. Loyalty is the faithful adherence one has to his friends, his school, and the sports in which he participates. If a student is a member of a team, he must not let it down. He must attend practices, meetings, and games. The success of the team depends on his loyalty. Each member of the team must contribute his loyalty so that the group can work as a team with true team spirit . By co-operating with his team mates and coach, a student learns that co-operation is a reguisite of happy living. Sportsmanship in any activity or team sport is the ability to accept graciously defeat as well as victory. If one possesses this much-cherished auality he will be able to face life with reality and without fear. The winning team is not always the best team. The latter, in the eyes of all, is the team that shows courage, courtesy and self-respect. To have these gualities is a better win that the game itself. The athlete that enjoys his sport is one who is both willing and eager to do the best that he can for his team. The love of the sport will be enough to supply the determination and drive that a good athlete must have to excel. An athlete first engages in sports because he enjoys the game and expects to excel in it. He gets enjoyment from meeting new people, and becoming friends with them even though he is their competitor. People who enjoy sports seldom become bored with life. Most important of all the gualities of a good sportsman are fair-play and honesty. There are rules in every game as in life and once one learns to abide by these he becomes a better player and a better citizen. Can one doubt that a sense of honour on the golf course or an inward compulsion to do the fair thing on the playing field will find its expressions in the vocations and dealings of men? If this were not so, the games and sports of a nation would make but little contribution to the character of its citizens. Therefore, fairness and honesty are as great a good to society and to the individual as are the physical values attained from athletics. These gualities of sportsmanship will help the individual to face both the successes and failures of life. Pat Lane, 12D
