Pep Rally
Held
Wednesday,
September 21, sixth period -- students shuffled and shoved their
way into the gym. The occasion -- the first senior high pep rally
for sophomores!
As the varsity cheerleaders entered the guy,
the crowd quieted. Mrs. Wilson, our principal, explained the cheers
one by one, as the cheerleaders went through each cheer, some
of them several times. "Well, Who are You?" has been
completely revised as far as actions go, and is now done with
shakers as is "Orange and Black". The latest (and greatest!)
cheer, "Snap-Clap" has an unusual beat and captivating
motions -- needless to say, it met with vast approval.
The cheerleaders have lowered their voices which
makes for better cheering and, too, gives them greater volume.
The uniforms have not changed, but are still most attractive as
are the cheerleaders themselves.
Jr. varsity cheerleaders, in black skirts and
white sweaters, went through several cheers, also; then were joined
by the varsity gals for an old favorite, "We're from Winter
Park."
On Friday the second pep rally was held -- this
time for the entire school!
Mr. Wilson introduced both sets of cheerleaders,
the football coaches and players, and the Wildcat band. The cheers
were once again explained and gone through while an enthusiastic
audience participated in the yelling.
Keep up the spirit of '60 'Cats!
As the band played "On, You Wildcats"
the cheerleaders went through the dance which is a part of the
song. The Alma Mater was heard for the first time this year, and
then, once again, "On, You Wildcats" was played as the
crowd, now anxious for the Melbourne game, departed.

Represents
Florida's Hi-Y's
At World Convention
|
|
Frank
Ferguson, senior at Winter Park, was chosen last spring to be one
of two delegates from Florida to represent the Tri-Hi Y and the
Hi-Y in Amsterdam. While in Europe, Frank was able to see part of
the Olympics.
Frank and Doug Miligne of Jacksonville first went
to Canada and then followed up with visits to Ireland, England,
Holland, Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Germany and the Rhine, Austria,
Italy - Rome, Switzerland, which appealed to Frank more than any
of the other countries, and France.
The attending representatives were divided into
several groups, spelling "FRIENDS." Frank's group called
themselves the DDT's, which stands for "Dynamic Diplomatic
Travelers."
While at the Olympic in Rome, Frank sand the most
impressive things that took place was the opening -- the most inspirational
parade, the three cannon salute, and the turning loose of ten thousand
pigeons to declare the opening official. The most humorous sight
was when an unknown college boy in sprinting form, leaped from the
grandstand and ran around the enormous track. |

Needless
to say, Frank met many interesting people during his stay. Students
from many nations were on hand to inform him about their ways of life
-- both social and serious, government, and education. View points
were exchanged to help the representatives better understand each
other.
When asked about his impression of European girls,
Frank replied, "They're very different from those here at home."
-- He neglected to say why.
Frank arrived at the Orlando Municipal Airport September
15th. On hand to greet and welcome him home were his parents, Colonel
and Mrs. Ferguson, Mrs. Fred Kersey of the Orange County Y.M.C.A.,
JoAnn Ross, Chip Schram, Linda Schmidt, Chan Muller, David Smith,
Susan Carter, Juluis Mullins, Richard Gianinni, Clark Lambert, Sue
Sturges, Pete Wilson and Bob Ross.
Two flying banners were part of the celebration
also. They read "Welcome Home, Bo!!", and "Go Home,
Yank!!" After several rounds of wild applause, cameras flashed
and people gathered around to see what all the commotion was about.
Frank was quite the celebrity.
Frank's back at school now, with a much wider concept
of life, both here and abroad.
Welcome home Frank, WPHS is proud of you! |
