Chris Strauss, left, and Donn Schumaker There is more to a cheerleader than a pleated skirt, a letter sweater, slightly used sneakers, and seemingly inexhaustible energy. Beneath it all there is a girl who has the same joys and sorrows as every girl . . . except her good times and bad times tend to be the stu- dent body's property. A cheerleader must be a character of unquestion- able reputeg she must,watch her language, her dress, her activities, her behavior. To many the honor exceeds the disadvantages, from among these the cheerleaders are chosen. The cheerleaders' responsibilities began this summer when the girls began working to earn money to purchase new uniforms. The source of income ranged from bake sales and car washes to the painting of an entire garage. During the school year their re- sponsibilities extend far beyond pep rallies and games. The girls promote school spirit with posters, booster badges, and general high hopes. The job of cheerleading is a time consuming one, but it is not with- out its rewards. The hours of prac- tice and the restricting rules are lost and forgotten in the laughter and chatter of the before-the-game spreads, in the roar of an enthusi- astic crowd, and in the knowledge of an honor well-deserved.
