By Dawn Bunking CLINTON - Central Huron Secondary School (OHSS), has started their spirit club again this year, with Vicki Speziale as the leader, and Laurie MacDonald, Linda De - Jong, Tracey Steyn, Julie Boyce and Mike Henry as squad leaders. The main purpose of a spirit club is to go to sports events in which the Redmen are in- volved in and cheer them on. Last year was the first year for the spirit club and it was headed by Rhonda Lobb, however it was not as successful as it has been so far this year. The club has approximately 20 members. It was larger, but they had to cut it down in size because of problems with other students skipping classes. The members of the club say that the athletes, coaches, and referees all ap- preciate the cheering, and it helps them to play, knowing that there are people there cheering for them. The spirit club has a pep band which is headed by Mr. McGregor, the music teacher at the school, They also have people dressed up as Indians which symbolize the Redmen. "In order to have a spirit club, you have to have people with determination and dedica- tion, and `you have to have a basic knowledge of what the school needs," said the members. , Since last year's spirit club, several changes have taken place.

Since Vicki, Linda and Laurie were all cheer leaders, and there are no longer cheer leaders at the school, they derived their cheers for the spirit club from their cheer leading experiences. Miss Holmes, who is the spirit club super- visor, is. a big help to the group and she is always there when they need her, according to Vicki. The members are also greatful to Mr. Wooden and Mr. Parr for allowing them the time out of class to participate. This will be the last year that the girls will be at CHSS and they hope that the spirit club continues next year. 40 -million Salaries and benefits to teachers' aides totalled $489,197; to school secretaries, $733,903; to custodians, $1,555,162 and to bus drivers, $236,331.
