Twelve new peppy Pom Pom girls have been chosen for next year's squad. They are Jan Bollet, Charlotte Freeman, Beth French, Jan Grubert, Pam Kariotis, Linda Larson, Katie Levan, Meg Lucas, Carol Mollenkamp, Linda Pinzke, Sheila Quinn, and Jill Schlanbusch. Six of these girls have already been on the squad for one year.

Clinic for preliminary tryouts was held May 18, 19, 20. The tryouts then took place on Monday, May 23. The finalists were 24 girls, chosen from the original 68 and the six girls from this year's squad. They had one day to rest and then on May 25, a one‑hour clinic was held for the girls to learn the routine for the final tryouts. This routine was made up by this year's co‑captain, Fran Urban.

Certain categories that the girls were judged in are pep, appearance and smiling, rhythm group harmony, kicks, co‑ordination, motions, and reaction to school representation.

Instead of calling the new squad, the seniors surprised each girl with a mum at her house. The next day, Friday,

May 27, the 12 happy members wore their mums in recognition of making the Pom Pom Squad.
