Heretofore the average circus manager
thought 1t impossible to start his tour
without several high priced European
acrobats and the consequence was that
number of clever American perform
ers took the names of foreigners, with
the result that they pleased both the
pubic and the manager. Norris &,
Rowe claim they have all the sensa-
t1onal European acrobatS and finally
came to the conclusion that for dar-
ing and originality, the American per-
formers took the palm For instance:
Norris & Rowe have two acts this
season that discount any troupe of
acrobats ever brought from Germany
where it is acknowledged the best ath-
letes of Europe come from. They are
the famous Leffel troupe of mid-air
