Two Cheering Squads To Lead Fans in Fall
The squads will consist of one composed of eight men and another team of eight girls which will do pom pom routines. Mike Lemoine, Leawood senior, and chairman of the ASC traditions committee, said that the two units will practice separately but they will probably travel as one unit.
KU sports fans will be treated by two separate cheerleading squads next fall.
The change, according to Lemoine, was brought about because of a definite lack of interest by men to become cheerleaders. Lemoine said "The present system did not offer enough for either the boys or the girls."
The new system is designed to revive interest for male cheerleaders, according to Lemoine. He said that many KU males considered the present system as too effeminate. Lemoine explained that with the new system, the men would be responsible for leading most of the cheers. He added that there would be more acrobatics by the male cheerleaders.
Lemoine said that most of the present cheers would probably be changed to chants. He added that although nothing definite has been worked out, the KU Rock Chalk yell will probably remain the same with both cheerleading units leading it. The present costumes, he said, would probably remain the same.
He said that with the new system, the units will probably alternate with the boys leading the short, chantlike cheers, and the girls doing the pom pom routines while being accompanied by the KU band.
