RIGHT - Head Cheerleader Joy Driscoll. 52 Nine girls did their utmost to keep TUHS spirits up this year - pep squad and three cheerleaders. Performing at rallies, football games, and basketball games, they flashed school colors and led Tiger yells. lt made no difference to these girls what the scoreboard read. When the teams were ahead, they gave victory yells and urged players on to higher scores. When behind, the lusty encour- agement still came, to bolster dragging spirits. Accompanied by the band, the pep girls had a classy array of dance, song, and yell routines. Special mention should be given Ral- ly Chairmen Elma Maddox and Zora Smith, who arranged peppy and inspiring rallies. Zora assumed the duties mid-year when Elma became too heavy-laden with other activities. Both pep squad and cheerleaders were decked out in new uniforms during the year.

They will lose most of the regulars from this year's team, but have a fine bunch coming up from the JV's for next year, and the future looks bright. Tranquillity opened the season by dropping a game to Fresno High JV's. Bouncing back they took Roosevelt's JV team into camp. Then came two consecutive league losses, to Riverdale and Parlier. TUHS hit the winning column again, however, by swamping Laton, Tigers threw a scare into mighty Caruthers before going under in the third quarter, and ended the season shut out by Sierra. Wingback Rufus Vega, trophy winner, and tailback Benny Oller were the main work horses throughout the season, while Tom Phillips was brilliant on the line.
