CLAD IN HIS orange aviation suit, Mitch Marauder lRon Nicks! displays his school pride at the first Mitchell-Palmer game. ENHANCE SPIRIT Brimming with pep and enthusiasm, Mitchell's eight pompon girls added new color and spirit to all varsity events during the year. In order the girls are Cindy Pring, head pompon girl, Linda Miller, Donna Morphis, Bev Bjerkelund, Paula Whalley, Marsha Gindrat, Pam Norwood, and T'Nette Quattrocchi, as they spell out Mitchell. Patti Astley served as an alternate in case one of the regular girls was unable to attend. After attending a special pompon clinic last year at Palmer High School, the eight girls were chosen by a panel of judges. They were judged basically on their spirit and enthusiasm, as they do not cheer in the same manner as the cheerleaders. The girls displayed many new and original motions to accompany the cheers and songs, Their huge pom- pons were the most outstanding feature of their color- ful uniforms. The uniform consisted of white skirts with orange and blue pleats and White sweaters with their appropriate letters. Attending all A-squad functions with the band, the pompon girls aided the cheerleaders and served as songleaders. Their main purpose was to boost mor- ale and spirit, as well as to add color to the functions they attend.
