J. V cheerleaders arouse the crowd's spirit at one of the home football ■A Front Row: Usa Barends. Allison McEDroy. Robin Baldwin. Sylvia Malaret. Unda Freeman Back Row: Barb Beck. Co-Captain Kim Kerr. Lorene Williams. Co-Captain Debbie Rodriguez. Sherri Harper This year's Varsity squad consists of twelve members with Janette Leyburn and Jamie Rush as the two co-captains. The rest of the squad is made up of three seniors, five juniors and two sophomores. Adding to the spirit is the J.V. squad led by Kim Kerr and Debbie Rodriguez. Both cheerleading squads started their sea- son early by going to camp for one week where they learned many new cheers. The Varsity squad was the grand champion of the camp and both squads won awards for super spirit and excellence. The squad initiated a new idea this year to show their spirit for the Varsity football team. They prepared a breakfast and decorated the room with posters and streamers on the morn- ing of the South Hunterdon game. This was a great way to support the team and to bring everyone together. The cheerleaders participated in the Fall Kickoff Night last September, getting the school fired up for the upcoming sports season. They provided entertainment with a few diff- erent cheers including their new hello cheer. In the past, cheerleaders were always asso- ciated with football. But in recent years they expanded their responsibilities by cheering at all home soccer games and cross country meets. The cheerleaders also cheered at basketball games and wrestling matches. The squad splits up for winter sports. One half of the squad cheered for basketball for a week and the other half cheered for wrestling. They alternated sports each week. The cheerleaders certainly added a lot of spirit to the school year. Barb Beck flashes a smile to the crowd between cheers

Besides playing at all football games, the band led by drum mayors Mike Roy and Glen Vasko and under the direction of Bill Seiple. competed in numerous competitions. They took third place at Northhampton. Morris Knolls, and the Chapter Champion- ship. At the Catasaqua competition, the band received first place and the best overall band in show trophy. This was the first time that a small group band received this honor. The band had tied with Northhampton for this trophy, but since there was only one trophy, it took the flip of a coin to decide who would receive it -the Warren Hills Band was ecstatic ! The band made their debut on an ABC T. V. special with Raquel Welch. Though their appearance was brief, their performance added a touch of class to the show. Other band functions included the selling of hoagies. wrapping paper, posters, and calendars all with the help of the Warren Hills Band Boo- sters. These fund raisers enabled the band to plan for their spring trip to Virginia Beach. Congratulations band for a show well done !
