Little Sisters Boost Jay-Vee Teams With Spirited Cheers No, no, no! It’s de-ce-meenie!” One might wonder, how in the world this word” could have any connection with the ’64-’65 Junior Varsity Cheering Squad. With the many and varied cheers introduced to the student body this year, anything was to be expected ! Along with actual cheering ability, the five juniors and four sophomores who composed the squad had to be bilingual in order to fulfill their cheering duties. Probably the greatest honor given to these enthusiastic pepsters was that of cheering for Warwick’s undefeated J.V. football team, and the little Farmers’ ” basketball team who also displayed great promise, ending the season with an impressive scoreboard. Throughout both seasons, the peppy junior cheerers could be seen proudly yelling and jumping with a fine display of maroon, gold, and white. Each girl did her share (and sometimes more!) to arouse the spectators’ support for their team. Many new cheers and dances were added to the collection of old Farmer” yells by this vibrant group. Miss Harriet Petty, a former WHS cheerleader herself, sponsored the girls and added much to their knowledge and enjoyment in the field of lung-burst- ing and ankle-breaking (that’s cheerleading!). Without a doubt, this rope-jumping, gay squad of cheerers ful- filled their job and left an indelible mark on Warwick High School. Oops, wrong way !” Smiling J.V. pepsters for ’64-’6 5 were: Bottom Row : l-r: Karen Clark, Judy Prizio, co-captain, Jeannie Albertson. Back Row l-r : Sandy Paine, Elizabeth Fife, Sandi Bryant, Holly Vose, co-captain. Middle right: Sandy P. and Sandi B.: Yabba Dabba Doo! Bottom right: Out of the mouths of Babes?

Eighth, Ninth Basketball Team Displays Power Thirteen wins and only five losses marked the season for the defensive minded Warwick eighth and ninth grade basketball team. Coached by Jerry Turley, the team practiced hard to shape up their squad for the demanding schedule. This stress on team- work and hustle, with just enough sparkling determination to win, paid off in well-earned and doubly appreciated victories over New- port News tw ' ice, and Ferguson three times. The sharp shooting of Bobby Gore, Mike Plott, and Sammy Mayo along with the consistently accurate pogo-stick” rebounding of Tack Howard and Mike Klarer proved to be the deciding factors in the Farmer eighth-ninth grade decisions. One of their best games was against Tefferson Davis. Combining both a determined de- fense and a booming offense the little Farmers made a big effort, but were forced to a defeat by the slim margin of 41-39.
