Tech and Centralto
Take Turns Cheering
at Basketball Game

When Tech and Central meet at
Chestnut street hall tonight in the
first of their series of basketball con-
tests, there will be a chance for both
student bodies to show how they can
sing.
Cheer leaders Harold Eckert of
Central, and Oscar Sutch, of Tech,
will each be given a chance to lead
their forces in singing. Drums and a
piano will accompany the music.
In previous contests when Tech
tried to sing, Central did it's best to
drown the music, and vice versa. Be-
fore the contest each school will sing
every other five minutes.
Then, too, the students have prom
ised not to fuss" the foul shooters
from the 15-foot mark. At that time
sepulcheral silence will reign. Klax-
ons and other mechanical noise-mak-
ing devices will be left at home. In
small hall the noise has been deaf
ening in previous games, and now the
Central and Tech pupils feel that just
as good game can be played without
SO much noise. The new arrange
ment will give spectators more of a
chance to hear what each school can
do in the way of singing.
