Cheerleading

As Cheerleading Coach at

would like to inform any
interested ‘‘Donegal Indi-

leading is. Since my arrival
in the area I have found that

is apathetic towards the

The pep rally was held
Friday afternoon and the
class floats were presented.
The seniors declared a
victory, the juniors had a
very pretty red, white, and
blue football, the sopho-
mores with both Bicenten-
nial and Donegal Flag called
this land, ‘The Land of the
Free’ and the ‘Home of the
Braves,” and the freshman
with their Indian squaws got
into the **Spirit of'76’* zlong
with the other classes.
The Juniors were voted
the class with the most spirit
and were given the toma-
hawk. The parade Friday
night with two truckloads of
football players, Home-
coming Queen candidates,
Senior High Band, Junior
High Band, and the class
floats ended at the Junior
High School. There the
bonfire was lit. Spirits were
high as students and specta-
tors cheered.
After the bonfire, stu-
dents went to the high
school to enjoy the movie
defeated 18-0.
The DHS Band provided
entertainment at halftime.
The junior high band and
the alumni band also per-
formed. Also the senior
high, junior high and alumni
bands played ‘‘March
America’ together. As the
second half of the game was
about to start an airplane
came in dropping off about
200 green ballons. Unfor-
tunately, the wind condi-
tions were not favorable.
However, some of
ballons did manage to land
on the field and a good
laugh was had by all,
especially by Coach Deshler
who later stated *‘I couldn’t
believe my eyes.”’

Behind the scenes
by Melody Mumma
At 8:00 a.m. on Friday,
September 19, at least one
Donegal High School teach-
er was not in the classroom:
Mr. Barry McFarland was
appearing on the Captain
Noah Show. Captian Noah is
a children’s show which
features various people in
and mushrooms.
Whether or not he is in
the classroom has little
effect on Mr. McFarland’s
productivity. He is definitely
and individual who uses his
talents to the fullest extent.
DID YOU KNOW...
lenge. For me, it is a deep
challenge, a position to
represent the spirit of the
school. First, a cheerleader
is selected to a squad. Her
responsibilities are many:
she promotes school spirit,
establishes healthy rivalries
with other schools, urges
| support of the team, and
encourages the idea of good
sportsmanship. These re-
sponsibilities take time and
dedication. A Cheerleader
must accept the challenge to
#@ seta good example because
of being constantly watched.
A Cheerleader’s duty
requires much self-sacrifice
along with inspiration, hu-
mility, and love. There are
many underlying factors
that go along with the job of
Cheering. Those many hard
hours of practice, patience,
yelling and giving it all you
got.
To me there is no greater
honor than to be a cheer-
leader; to wear the school
colors and to represent the
school in all the good things
for which it stands.
at Quebec
by Melody Mumma
Does eight days off from
school to go ‘‘camping”’
sound inviting? Jim Landis,
a freshman at D.H.S., son of
Dr. and Mrs. Landis, is
doing just that—only in a
slightly different style. As a
member of the Donegal
Rangers, Jim is participat-
ing in a 1775 re-enactment
of Benedict Arnold’s march
to Quebec. Approximately
six hundred men from
the northeastern United
States are making the
250-mile trek from Portland,
Maine to Quebec. The
Rangers will ‘‘fight”’ the
English 64th Regiment,
commemorating Arnold’s
battle with the English.
The Donegal Rangers, in
existence for only three
months, has already partici-
pated in the ‘‘Walk Through
History’’ in Maytown and
the Fort Frederick, Mary-
