HIGH SCHOOL CHEERLEADERS -- More than 2,200 high school •cheerleaders, including this group from McHenry West campus participated in the sixteenth annual summer cheerleader school at Illinois State University in Bloomington-Normal. The stu­ dents, whose fees for instruction, room and board fully finance the program, come from throughout Illinois, Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin and Nebraska for the three separate one-week ses­ sions June 8-27. Instructors are selected and directed by L.R. Herkimer, Dallas, Tex., executive secretary of the National Cheerleaders Association. The program, which has resulted from requests by high school officials, includes instruction in cheerleading techniques, mass demonstrations, crowd psychology, pep rallies and sportsmanship. Students were housed at Haynie and Wright Halls, with meals served in Linkins Center on the Illinois State campus. Members of the group are: Shirley Jen­ kins, Paula Monteleone, Rozzie Rees, Sue Kelsey, Sue Peters and Janet Larkin, captain. While they were there, they were presented with an outstanding ribbon, three excellent ribbons, a superior ribbon, and they brought home the spirit stick.
