THE CHEER LEADERS Glenn Carl I. Winsor . Erwin E. Glenn Shirley W. Peters Peters insur Head Cheer Leader Assistant Assistant Cheer leading at the University became a fine art this year with Sandy Winsor at the helm of the Thundering Thousands. The cheering was always organized and the rooters never ceased to fight ' em. The time-worn and not entirely false assertion that Kansas rooters quit rootirig when their team began to lose was effectually refuted at the Oklahoma, Nebraska and Missouri games this year. The old cry of Bust it now! sounded by Sandy undoubtedly brought a response which showed alumni visitors and the visiting team that the old Jay- hawk spirit lived again. Curve Glenn and Shirley Peters, the two scrappy assistants, followed well the leadership of Sandy and kept their end of the bleach- ers Fightin ' ' em to the last whistle. A great revival of spirit to correspond with the new era in all parts of the University was ushered in at the athletic contests throughout the entire year. It speaks well for the cheer leading forces that no game of ' any kind this year ran its course without the encouragement of a Rock Chalk. And when a crowd becomes wildly enthusiastic about a two-mile run at an indoor track meet it can truly be said that the old spirit of Uncle Jimmy Green and Tommy Johnson and the ghosts of all the thunderers have been reincarnated. i 1.
