 N mENNS (DATELINE: NATIONAL NEWS) Through the course of 1985- 86, relations between LIBYA and the UNITED STATES grew increasingly strained. On December 27, fifteen peo- ple, including five AMERI- CANS, were butchered by PAL- ESTINIAN terrorists at the Rome and VIENNA airports. Criticized by PRESIDENT REAGAN for praising the terrorism and labeled flaky , LIBYAN leader MUAMAR KADAFFI responded by calling REAGAN a stinking, rotten crusader. As problems between the two countries increased, more name-call- ing and terrorists acts took place. The bombing of a disco in BERLIN, which killed an AMERICAN soldier, triggered a US attack on LIBYA'S strategic military points. Reagan rationalized that this attack was to prove the US wouldn't stand for any further terrorist attacks. Along with the terrorist tragedies in EUROPE by LIBYANS, the explosion of the space shuttle CHALLENGER was another AMERI- CAN castastrophe. Carrying seven crew members, including the first teacher, CHRISTA MCAULIFFE, the space shuttle crashed at about 11:39 a.m., only one minute and thirteen seconds after take-off. Work crews im- mediately began searching off the coast for pieces of the shuttle to give them clues as to the cause of the explosion. Investigations were made and it was discovered that the right rocket booster had a leak which caused a fire seconds after take-off. The fire then spread to all areas of the shuttle. About three months after the disaster, searchers recovered the ma- jority of the pieces along with the seven bodies of the crew. 26 -Academicd OrganizalionA What next?

K eep the crowd alive VARSITY FOOTBALL CHEERLEADERS - FRONT ROW Amy Jenkins, Kerri Barr and Penni Rotunno. BACK ROW Brenda Hodges and Amy Foor. By Amy Foor With school spirit at an all time low, it was hard for the cheerleaders to do their job, but they tried their best to keep our school alive. The football season had a slow start, because of the lack of a perma- nent coach. The girls had some coaching from elementary stu- dent teachers until Tina Christensen came along and pulled the squad to- gether. In the beginning I thought it was a real challenge , said coach Tina Christensen, but in the end I thought the girls that stayed with me really gave it their all to end the season on a good note. During the basketball season, cheerleaders were hard to find and hard to keep. The varsity squad started out with 10 members and ended up with six. This proved to be a test of dedication to the remaining girls. Along with the addition of a new coach, the cheerleaders also received new uniforms. I thought they were nice because they were NEW , said Amy Foor, but as far as looking nicer I liked the old ones a lot better. There were three pep assemblies throughout the year which the cheerleaders were responsi- ble for. Sometimes we didn't even know there was one so we just threw it together at the last min- ute , said varsity cheerleader Amy Foor, or we were too busy working on other things to do a good pep assembly. The jr. varsity cheerleading squad consisted of five members in the beginning and finished with only one cheerleader, Lisa Deyarmond, by the end of the season. Learning the ropes of cheerleading demon- strated much potential for the jr. high cheer- leaders. Cheering eight games under the coach- ing of Chris Bennett gave the young girls the experience they need for their future years of cheering. The seventh grade squad consisted of Holly Rotunno, Kristy Sharp, Lisa Beach, and Christi- na Fleming. The cheerleaders for the eighth grade squad were Faye DePue, Deanna Galli- hugh, Shawn Antes, Rachel Butler, Shannon Kloeckner, Jenny Swope and Michelle Keeler. Although the cheerleaders had a rough road at first, they showed their strength by sticking together and made their season successful for them. All together now!! Showing their loyalty to their team, the cheerleaders perform a success- ful routine during halftime of the Homecom- ing game to the tune of Be True to your School. ’ Oh say can you see . . . Minutes before it start- ed to pour down rain; Amy Jenkins and Penni Rotunno stand in the usual cheerleader stance while the senior band played the National An- them. 28 C,keerfeadi erA
