The Drill Team, under the direction and in- struction of Mrs. Susan Williams, performed during halftime at our home football and basketball games. The girls practiced long, hard hours after school to prepare for their performances at athletic events. The captain of the Drill Team for this year was Brenda George and the co-captain was Shelia Iones. 1 ' 4 rg ,M - if . dm ,le i ,asf , X f. ,, , ,, Q ia. I' v s . ' Nw, K KD
