0x, NTOBEE'; , 7h Rec Cheerleaders You can't squeeze blood out of a stone. It was CI mighty depressing year for the cheer-leoders ort LIU Who wowed and roh-ed, to no avail. Coached by the astute dancing master, Gluck Sandor, the Blackbird yellers were as proficient crs any in the metropolitan area, and their vocal cords as strong. But G8 the squad shivered and screamed through the football season, the students laughed up their worm overcoat sleeves. Not only did the cheering squad cheer, but it also danced and marched. The minds of Clair Bee and Sandor rigged up a corking ballet Victory formation which featured titty gorgeous Long Is- tond coeds strutting about the basket- ball court, marching to the music of the Blackbird bond. But the students kept right on snickering, omd the Madison Square Garden debut proved to be 0 tunerod march, not CI victory. Either the girls were too pretty, or the students were too busy mooching cigarettes to use their mouths to cheer. L-I-U, Hear their cry! Band It's taken o long time, but it's finally happened. LIU has a bond What am! Under the guidance of Raymond Shon- non, boton-wielding graduate of Okto- horno A. and M., the HOver the Rain- bow', mess of 1939 has developed into a rootin'-tootin, college troupe thott plays the Alma Mater ors though Long Island boosted of a campus and traditions. The highlight of CI bond season that spread itself over football, basketball, and baseball campaigns, omd at student- wide rallies, wors achieved the last night of February Cit Convention Holt, Philly. Leaving 300 Pearl Street ort four that afternoon, the band's bus trudged ninety miles in srx hours through a blinding blizzard to arrive two minutes after the Blackbirds hod outpointed LaSodle 42-41 in overtime. Disappointed, but eager to serenade or new crowd, the fifty piece bond put out-ond tore down the hodl with the swellest musical show of the year. Through snow and sleet and block of night, the band came through. :2 n z beate Vegft rWtCollcge OHW , ya J tV W p .nlw' J 5 i 13 ylllg h Mi t0 W w '1 Mt , u

e...- BasehaH: Read itand Weep It's in again, it's out again, its base- ball again. Out of the mothbcdls after a year's lay-off, baseball equalized the loss of football by turning out one of the strongest teams in Blackbird history. With c1 nucleus of seven veterans, George Bock, Buck Lat, Iohn Yengo, Walt Callahan, Ossie Shechtman, Jack McGowan, and Nick Scdcito, and coach- ed by Ice LaBate, Brooklyn Dodger scout, the Beemen swept through Q for- midable tifteen-gome schedule at CI tor- rid pace. Toeing the mound were southpaw Cod- lahan, Dick Skwircr, Bob Trocolcxr, and Lou Cappolcx. Receiving the slants of the above Big Four crouched Jack Mc- Gowan, heavy-hitting catcher. Bock, senior glamour boy of the in- field, patrolled the initial sack, With Yen- . mmseog'mmiludtx-ximi trailer: . . v; Lw' . go, Scdcito, Johnny Gitsczs, 0nd Dicky Isaacs constantly scrapping for the re- maining berths of the inner garden. Shechtmcm and L01, mercurial outfield- ers, gave the 1941 nine the fastest, hard- est-hitting outfield in metropolitan circles. Gabe Destio, Vic Rosenbloom, A1 Fleish- man, and Dizzy Dean completed the ros- ter. The Blackbirds were managed by Dave Schwartz, aided and abetted by Ira Steitel. The schedule: April 5 ...Penn AC.
