Cheerleaders Provide Extra Color
While Serving Definite Purpose

In any football clash, there is one
team that never loses.
Yep. you guessed it. the cheer
leaders. II their team is winning,
they give vent to their Joy with the
most enthusiastic yelps ever heard
If their team is behind, then they
must rally the fans and encoura sc
their players. They never give up.
This sideline duty is always rele-
gated to the prettiest. most vivac-
ious girls in the schools and the
only school honor that ranks almost
on plane with the captain Of the
football team is that of head cheer
leader
At a recent high school game. not
Powhatan or Amelia. the cry over
the loudspeaker went out. Doctor
pleaes report to the bench"
As the local doctor hurried over, all
of the fans pictured terrible things
about one of the football players.
1t was not told in public. but one Of
the cheerleaders had fallen in the
grandstand and cut her knee. The
Doc fixed her up. as the team went
on to glory.
The value OF the cheerleaders has
been proven time and again. When
a team hears the shouts for them,
they put forth their best efforts II
all is quiet In the stands the players
feel that there is no need to exert
any undue effort With little cheer
ing every player does little bet
ter. So it is with gratitude that the
football players can turn to the
cheerleaders and say. Thanks. We
are all doing our best for the good
old Alma Mater. Keep up the good
work and We will do our best"
