The eight cheerlead- ers and one mascot, chosen last year. attended camp at Southern Methodist University to get their Viking spirit fired up for the fol- lowing year at Vines. While at camp the cheerleaders earned five superior ribbons. one excellent ribbon, and later went on to win the spirit stick. The Viking spirit had just begun.

The consistent taps on a tam- bourine signaled the entry of the Vines Vikettes. Forty-seven soph- omore girls made up this select group. These girls have worked many long and hard hours to obtain the perfection they now have. When did it all start? The Vik- ettes started officially practicing July 9 and spent 4 additional days at S.M.U.. the site of the Ameri- can Drill Team School summer clinic. Here the Vikettes received various awards in pompon and marching and two special awards for most improved and hest disci- plined drill team. lronically all of these awards were won without the presence of their permanent sponsor. Some fifteen girls won individ- ual ribbons in pompon. dance. and marching contests. This sum- mer experience ohviously paid off. for the Vikettes received lst place in the Annual .lay-Cees Christmas Parade. However. the awards which the Vikettes are most proud of are their two lst place rihhons won at the Miss Texas Drill Team Pageant. The Spring Review was the last per- formance given hy the 79-80 Vines Vikettes. i :M- is Q
