Cheerleading in the 70's!

[Clint Ebstein]

Rhodes was the only team to be in

[Michael Alexander]

Rhodes, Schmodes... who in their right mind wants to be in a team with a red colour?

[Rhona]

EVERYBODY wants to wear a red colour...............

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

SORRY!!!!! but green suits me better  up Banardos

[Michael Alexander]

Oh When The Green, Oh When The Green, Oh When the green house come marching in.... watch the others cry with envy, when the green house comes marching in.... lalalalala

[Rhona]

As the red team took off into the desert; the runners would turn around and sing ''Cherio cherio cherio'' as the green guys would be left in a cloud of sandy dust.............

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

Michael that song brings back memories, I forgot all the songs we used to sing. Anyone remember any othere

[Michael Alexander]

"Come what may we , believe in Barnato!....lalalal"... to the tune of that song from DR Zchivago

Ellen was cheerleader of Oppenheimer for many years, she convinced me to join her and we were cheerleaders together in 1974 and 1975. If I remember correctly, we got the cheerleading cup both years. Had slides printed and scanned, not sure they will come out alright, but here goes.
