Ashland Rally Squad Boosts
Conference Games Spirit
Grizzly Runners
Win Invitationals
PSST, PSST, PSST, have you
heard about the "SPIRIT BUG"
running full force through the
halls of Ashland High School?!!?
The rumor is that A.H.S. is our
to be No. I . Tomorrow night's
game will prove this rumor to be
absolutely true!!!
The overwhelming spirit of
the Varsity Rally has helped
stimulate that contagious "bug".
Diane Jensen, rally queen, along
with her six high-spirited
promoters, have been
distributing "goodies" to the
football players and cross
country runners. (A little reward
for their hard earned efforts.)
A delicious cake,
multi-colored suckers, and
Scream in' Yellow Zonkers are
just a few "goodies" received by
the athletes.
The cheerleaders have been
getting it together by plastering
the walls of A.H.S. with spirit
boosting messages. "WE'RE
NUMBER 1", "THIS IS THE
YEAR OF THE BEAR", and
"S1NGLER-YOU TURKEY!!"
arc just a few examples of those
illustrious messages to our loyal
and patriotic students.
The Varsity Rally is planning
to seU "SPIRIT" ribbons for the
coming conference games. They
would like it to be understood
that these ribbons are not for
brutally strangling our winded
enemy. (Remember the 20-0
stomp Oct. 10, 1969.)
Congrats to Diane and her
other cheerleaders, Cindi Dale,
Debbie Edwards, Deb Revel,
Susan Travis, Becky Warren, and
Renee Wentela.
This year has only just begun,
the cheerleaders, players and
students HAVE NOT YET
BEGUN TO EIGHT!!!!
