Editorial
Are Cheerleaders worth It?
Why shouldn't the cheerleader* be allowed to attend any of
the entertainment that it given for the batketball team at the
end of the season? It seems like they are definitely a part of
the Bulldog setup during season, but then, they are dropped
right off when the playing season is over. The cheerleaders are
expected to be prA.tent at every ball game, encourage school spir
it (if suth a thing is po<tsible), teach yells, songs, etc., and al
ways wear a winning smile, whether the occasion signifies vic
tory or defeat! That is the duty of a true cheerleader. And it is
generally acccpted that our cheerleaders have done their best this
year to be good leaders. Then why shouldn't they get a little
pleasure and "fun" along with the rest of the''workers"? It
seems as though some one doesn't use much forethought, or else
they don't carc that much!
Cheerleaders are human, just like ball players are human!
When the team is entertained time and again, naturally the cheer-
er« notice it, and why shouldn't they? Now, that the season of
court ball is over, the cheerleaders are forgotten—until next
year, maybe. And they haven't even received so much as a word
of thanks or recognition from the Bulldogs themselves! Maybe
all that yelling wasn't appreciated as much as the cheerleaders
thought! Anyway, the whole thing adds up to this—the student
body wanted cheerleaders, the students got cheerleaders, and so
—that's that I
