TUESDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1940 GIRL CHEER LEADERS, BANNED LAST YEAR, ARE HAPPY NOW —DENVER HAS RECALLED THEM Uniforms Trickier And “Showier” Than Ever; Redskins Use Jazz Or- chestra In Wigwam By ROBERT E. GEIGER AP Feature Service Writer DENVER, Oct. 29.—Just as the girls predicted, a gentlemen’s agreement for the abolishment of college drum majorettes and fe- male cheer leaders clad in eye- attracting, short-skirted uniforms didn’t last long in the Big Seven football conference. The girls are at it again this year, after being “abolished” for a season, at the University of Denver. Uniforms are trickier and “showier” than ever. Jean Knorr and Ruth MclIn- tosh, the two DU cheer provok- ers, predict the colorful profes- sion will spread once more through all of the Big Seven schools. “And why not?” asks platinum- haired, slim-limbed Jean. “Don’t we contribute to the pep and the general all-around glamour of the feotball seene?” Togs Undignified? The “gentlemen’s agreement” was entered into by college band officials who said “it isn’t digni- fied for a college girl to display herself in scanty uniforms” and a few foctball players who com- plained “the fans pay for foot- ball games, not girlish acrobatic stunts—and besides the girls at- tract too much attention”. Getting back to Jean and Ruth, cheer leading is a matter of strenuous calisthenics. Out of training for a year, they had to get back into form gradually First, they limber up with the “soldier's stretch”, then the knees are exercised with the “duck waddle”. After some hand springs, they prance and_ strut. And then they’re ready to cry, “Give ‘em three times three, fel- lows”, and leap into the air. There are a few schools that teach drum majoring, the high prances and intricate twirls of the baton. Some ccllege drum major- ettes have gone to these schools. Others gained experience in high school bands, but the majority learn their routine after they reach college. Few In East There are many girl cheer leaders* and drum majorettes in Southern, Far Western and Southwestern schools and a féw in the midwest but few Eastern schools have them. Many col- leges have girl cheer leaders but leave the drum majoring to the boys. One professional football team, at least, has gone further than any of the colleges along the | music line. The Washington Red- skins of the National Football league has a jazz orchestra park- ed in an Indian wigwam above the bleacher seats, in addition to a large marching band. se ee ee ee ISLAND CITY LEAGUE (Key West Baseball) Club— Key West Conchs *Trojans —_ = Blue Sox *Pirates *C.GC..

Head Coach Buck Shaw didn’t like to see his plays busted to} smithereens by young freshmen, so he rode our hero rather hard. And our hero became madder with every taunt. Practice over, the young guard rushed to the dining hall to have dinner, and then went to his room and started to pack his bag. Nello Falaschi, dropping in to chat, inquired where he was go-} ing. td Guard: “I'm going home. I might be only a Frosh, but I} can't see why the coach should | pick on me ail afternoon. Life’s too short”. Falaschi: “Why, don’t mind that. The coach is only indulg- ing in a litle psychology”. Guard: “Psychology? Why should he give me that?
