Hot tips for keeping ice
cool during the summer
Hot weather can put real pressure
on home ice supplies. Here are five
suggestions from Flint Electric
Membership Corporation for max
imizing ice production whether you
have an automatic icemaker or just
plain old-fashioned ice trays.
• Remember that the cooler the
freezer section, the faster ice will
freeze. So, it might be worth set
ting the freezer control a notch
colder.
• Also, don't open the freezer door
any more than necessary, and al
ways let warm foods cool before
placing them into the freezer.
• Keeping condensor coils clean

is extremely important. It improves
performance, and saves energy, too.
Vacuum coils regularly.
• If you have an older manual or
cycle defrost refrigerator be sure to
defrost it regularly to prevent frost
build up. Frost more than 1/4-inch
thick acts like insulation, keeping
the freezer from getting as cold as
it should and causing the compres
sor to run more.
• Finally, plan ahead. If you
know you're going to need extra ice
in a few days, start saving now.
Store ice cubes in tightly sealed
plastic bags in the freezer where
they will be ready for use when
needed.
PHS holds
cheerleading
clinic for
children in
August
Perry High cheerleaders will
sponsor their annual clinic for
youngsters in grades K-6 at Perry
High the week of August 10-14,
from 2-5 p.m. Cost is 525, which
includes a free T-shirt.
With the T-shirt comes admis
sion to home games; the summer
squads will perform at designed
games and will be admitted free.
They will also participate in nu
merous local events, including the
homecoming parade.
Highlighting the week will be
the big sister/ little sister sessions
with members of the PHS squads,
selection of a spirit queen and the
naming of an all-star squad.
According to Fcnika Thomas,
captain, "Wc will cover the latest
trends and techniques in dance and
cheers, focusing on material we
learned at camp. Because of our
success at camp, we will be able to
better inform the participants in
these areas."
Co-captain of the junior varsity
squad, Tiffany Hoover, added, "We
will also stress safety and spotting
techniques, conditioning and aero
bics. These are areas that the girls
can work on long after the clinic
ends.”
For the registration fee each girl
will receive a certificate, ribbons for
evaluation, T-shirt, refreshments
and game admission.
Mrs. Dee Hayes, J-V sponsor
said, "We arc always pleased at the
camaraderie during the clinic. The
younger girls develop rapport with
older role models, and wc find that
the experience gives more than just
training in cheerleading. The friend
ships really do last."
"Each year the clinic has involved
around 100 youngsters; this year we
have more varsity and junior varsity
girls than ever, so we are hoping
for an even greater turnout," Elaine
Stephens, varsity coach, said.
Registration forms are available
at local businesses and also through
cheerleaders. Early registration is
urged. For more information, con
tact Mrs. Hayes at 987-1711 or
Mrs. Stephens at 987-0822.
Proceeds from the clinic, which
will include a performance for par
ents at the conclusion, help the
high school squads defray operating
expenses throughout the year.
Boydstone
says fun is
the key
By EMERY WARNOCK
Staff Writer
“The theme for this year is fun. 1
don’t believe in doing something if
it isn’t fun,” Joby Boydstone, head
football coach at Westfield, said
Thursday to the Perry Exchange
Club at their regular meeting.
“This year is going to be unpre
dictable. You’re going to see some
things a little bit different this year.
We’re going to have a lot of new
kids that haven’t gone out for foot
ball before. This is going to be an
exciting style of football,” Boyd
stone said.
“We’re trying to bring to West
field a style similar to Georgia
Tech,” he said.
“This isn’t going to be the prepa
ration for the pros. This is going to
be fun and at the same time, teach
ing them about discipline and char
acter and how to enjoy the game,”
Boydstone said.
Boydstone is the new football
coach at Westfield. He has coached
at schools in North and South Ge
orgia, in the Atlanta area and at
Berry College in Rome.
“I’m looking forward to working
with the community. Don’t hesitate
to call us,” he said.
“There is going to be mixture of
new players and young players.
This is the Last Frontier where they
can feel no pressure about being a
training ground for the pros. I want
them to take advantage of it and do
their best at all times. If they know
they’re doing their best, you don’t
have to keep harping on them,”
Boydstone said.
Westfield’s first practice is August
3. Their first scrimmage game will
be held in Albany August 20.
Bert Brown, coach at Westfield,
said the football team is going to
be turned around.
“This is going to be a new year.
The schedule is tough. I don’t think
there is any team we can’t compete
with. When Friday rolls around,
come out to Westfield. You will
have gotten your $4 worth,” Brown
said.
