It is also unfair to the athletes themselves. Why 1o the spectators want to know what it's all about, when the players don't know themselves. Nobody has asked that the cheer leaders be numbered because even the most habitual football bus knows there ain't fractions that small. A cheer leader belongs to the same branch of the Rotary Club that ad mits squirrels in revolving races to active membership. No circus is complete without a battery of clowns, and no big inter collegiate market day would be offi cial without a cabinet of Barnum secretaries. Cheer leaders are sent to college because papa and mamma figure that a pet squirrel is easier to feed and takes up less room around the house. They send the boy on" to Yale or Princeton to study modern mythology and the hieroglyphics on ancient African tablets. African Sanskrit. The hieroglyphics on ancient African tablets have never been de ciphered with profi. to the party of the first part. The African spoke and wrote a dotted language on square ivory stationery- There seemed to be only 12 dots in their alphabet The Morse code has both dots and dashes. Science figures that Afro-Diceo was the Remorse code. The ancient Africans used to shake their education well before Hiking and follow it up with a long roll for a ; finishing course. The dots seemed to have a very peculiar significance. Two dots were known as cap an.: ; was a symbol of mourning. Vossibly j a corruption of crepe, meaning some thing on the doorhell after a patient had just died. It was also called Snake Ryes or CViinamen's Kyes. Three dots meant the same thing. Four dots was little Joe, an orphan, who was the champion wrestler or his age. Nobody could throw him. Five dots were Phoebe from the south, a young sister of Nine IVits. known as Nellie with the Ixmg Green Stockings. Six dots was a point if you mad it. If you didn't make it, it was j only a number. Seven dots had two meanings. It was or it wasn't, Tf you didn't throw it first, it 'hrew you. Eight was the same as six. Either a point or a number. Ten was Big Dick from Boston j and was the birthstone of Lucretia i Borgia, the inventor of slow poison. Eleven was a antural. Named in honor of John Burroughs, the great naturalist. Twelve was box cars or Packards, because it was made with twin sixes. It was a very queer language and a guy could speak volumes without saying a word. After a cheer leader graduated in African tablets he would go horn, frame an I. O. V. for a diploma and spend the rest of his life helping the town loafer to build up his business. r PERSONALS G. A.
