What is Otterbein to do for a cheer leader this year? Our own "Cocky" Wood who has led the yells so ably for several years is now an alumnus last spring when it was announced that there would be tryouts for the posi· tion of cheerleader, no candidates ap· peared." Might not some person volunteer to serve his Alma Mater in this capacity. We should hate to· think that there is no one in our number who is qualified to take charge of some ori· ginality and practice but there is cer• tainly some one who will take hold of this. When the call is given for tryouts may we have at least a dozen candidates?
