Girl Cheer Leaders Drafted
ToPep Up Boiling Grid Games

Boiling Airbase officers today
listed eight reasons for the grow
ing enthusiasm at Boiling foot
ball games this season and-if
you're skeptical-invited you Gree
OF charge) to Saturdays game
with the Norfolk Navy team to
see for yourself.
The eight reasons are: -Four
easy-to-look-at cheer leaders and
four just-as-easy-to-look-at drum
majorettes.
Thanks to the cheer leaders,
several thousand Boiling airmen
now cheer like a college or high
school group at the games.
One education officer thought
the increased enthusiasm was due
to the fact that some 400 airmen
at the base attend either college
or high school classes. Thus, the
ole school spirit.
But to men who know their
football best, it's the cheer lead
ers, two to one.
Lets not kid ourselves, men,
said Col. Henry j. Amen, COM
mandant at the base. "It's the
girls"
The cheer leaders from Airing
ton Farms are Virginia johnson.

zee, 10, and Trudy Adams, 10. The
drum majorettes, who lead the
Air Force Training Band are: Bev.

cision.

Judge Sam Pearlstein.
Sherman and Pearlstein gave
the nod to Lester FELTON, over Kid

with the reason given by the
Michigan State Boxing Commits
sion for suspending the officials.
Commission Secretary Leo Sour
wall had stated they were found
'lax in their duties as defined by
the commission"
Il want to find out what con-
nection, if any. gamblers had with
this decision" Toy said. The
commission has indicated it does
not know how to go about making
such an investigation. We do and
will"
He assigned two top detectives
to, direct the investigation.
The split decision giving the
fight to FELTON, was highly unpopu-
lar with the crowd and was con-
demned by the press.
Judge Joe Lenahan, who voted
for Gavilan. was not affected by
the boxing commission action.
The commission said it would be
decided later whether the license
