Fothergill of Detroit, who became
the league’s only .400 batsman, by
increasing his average 22 points to
.406 during the week. Fothergill.
however, had been to bat less than
half as many times as the Phila

the week and added eight points to
bring their average to .306 The
Yankees had a mark of .300 even,
reaching that figure Tor the first
time this season.

i league extended into the pitching

Digivty Marked Actions of

PHILADELPHIA. Jur/' 22— <**,—
Cheer lecjierss change with the
times.
Before the introduction of the
present day "somersault" variety
the art cf leading cheers was quite
dignified. Acrobrntic ability was not
a necessary virtue, nor did one
have to be a gymnast in order to
produce volume from the undcr
| graduate cheering section at col
lege athletic events.
The well-known "three long rays"
1 and the equally famous "hurrahs"
1 came out just as strong then as now
• without the air of "cartwheels" or
i handsprings on the part of the cheer
I leaders.
David K Reeder, head cheer lead
er at the University of Pennsylvania
, in 1912. claims credit for origin
ating the uniforms worn by present -
; day cheer leaders. It was that year
that the competitive system of se
j lecting cheer leaders was inaug
urated at Penn and Reeder was de
! signated to decide upon a uniform
rather than have them appear in
a diversity of raiment.
Reeder hit on the English cricket
sweater with its so-called crew neck
a 1 with stripe* running down from
: ii shoulder to a point in front
' and draped in an arc across the
J shoulders. The "fad" grew rapidly,
and todav cheer leaders cf colleges,
universities and high schools all
over the country wear these sweaters
to distinguish them from their fel
| low-undergraduates.
