for approval. The magistrate told
Davis he was concerned Bakker
would go on television and talk about
the case, but he issued no formal

'hether they are performing
in the Pit for a few
hundred people or in the
Smith Center at basketball halftimes
for 20,000 fans, UNC's High Kick
ing Heels show that hard work and
dedication are taking them a long
way. The group is now preparing for
a national dance competition after
only four years as an official
organization.
The University's dance team has
developed a good reputation in a
relatively short period of time,
according to coach and choreo
grapher Quentin Alexander.
The national competition involves
preparing an audition tape in which
the High Kicking Heels are judged -against
dance teams from other
major universities around the United
States, said co-captain Anita Harri
son, a senior economics major from
Wilmington.
The top seven schools qualify for
the competition in San Antonio,
Harrison said. The dance team fin
ished eighth last year.
The group's goal is to go to San
Antonio, Alexander said, where it
would be possible for them to place
Campus Group Focus
or even win the competition.
"We have been working since
October on this one particular dance
for the competition," Harrison said.
The dances must include jumps,
leaps, stunts and different dance
techniques, she said.
Most of the girls said commit
ment and a love for dancing are key
elements in being a part of the 23
girl squad. But they said performing
is the best part of being in the
group.
"You really have to want to do
it," said Cathy Sherer, a junior
speech communications major from
Wilmington and treasurer of the
High Kicking Heels. "You have to
want to give it 200 percent all the
time, but it's a lot of fun."
Angie Stafford, a junior criminal
justice major from Charlotte, is
dancing with the Heels for the first
time this year. She said being on the
team is very time consuming. "I
wouldn't do it if I didn't enjoy it
enough to make it a part of my life,"
she said.
Harrison said being on the team is
rough on its members sometimes.
"But there is nothing like walking
out into the SAC and seeing 22,000
people looking at you and hearing
the crowd," she said. "I think it
makes it all worth it."
The amount of prior experience
varies greatly within the group. "I
have been taking tap, ballet and jazz
since I was three," Stafford said.
"But you don't have to have that
kind of training." Some of the
members have had no prior expe
rience and were just fast learners.
Tryouts for next year's squad will
take place March 28. The women
are judged on precision, appearance
and projection, Harrison said. Next
year team members must sign a doc
ument claiming the High Kicking
Heels as their number one priority.
Harrison encouraged anyone
interested in trying out to come,
watch the team prepare their audi
tion tape in Carmichael this Sunday
from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m.
Alexander said he hopes people
will come and cheer the girls on
while they tape on Sunday. "It
would help the girls to get support
(from the student body) because it's
hard to dance to a coach and a
cameraman."
