Rowing into : College Station
Decern >er 14 is the celebrated Dan
ish tumbling team. They are com
ing here with all the agility and
yrations that have made them the
„ nasts of two contin
ents .
This team, , composed of two
groups of fifteen men and fifteen
women, have spun, jumped and
rolled t^eir way into the approval
of audiences from Copenhagen to
Philadelphia.
totliii?
of tumblers comes
:t from' appearances
at Temple University and the Uni
versity of Chicago. Their fame and
popularity have snow-balled them
to great heights since their arrival
in the United States some eighteen
months ago. It was said that this
8 ived the greatest
iccorded an inter-
sion act at Madison Square
last year.
The repertoire i of these gymnas
tic wizzards includes all the regu
lar feats of gymnastics and many
more. It seems at times that these
tumblers are looking for a hard
way to commit suicide. But no mat
ter which way they go into the air
they always manage to land right
side up. .
■ '
One of the most amazing trie!
that these daring young men an
women perform is called the “Higl
Thief Jump”. It start
with the tumbler diving from bo
toward a tumbling horse. The gym
nast leaves the box as if he wer
climbing an imaginary ladder ti
the horse. Just as he gets to thi
horse he straightens into a prom
position and soars over onto th
floor in an upright position.
These fair-haired boys and girls
from Denmark accomplish this and
equally difficult stunts as if they
were routine matters. What they do
en when they appeared there in mid-air would be physical may*
mr
hem for anyone else.
Erik Flensted-Jensen says that
the U. S. tour of the troop has a
dual purpose. The group wants to
see America land interest this coun
try in their national sport He
points out that tumbling is to the
Danes what baseball is to the
United States. The little boys in
Denmark want to grow up to be
great gymnasts as the American
youth strives to become another
Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig.
.. f. . •: • j
Continuing along this line, Flen
sted-Jensen points out that no other
sport tends to utilize all the mus
cles of the body as does tumbling.
Coordination and agility are the
mainstays of gymnastics. Each
of these performers are masters of
their particular brand of homicide.
They are the cream of the group as
far as Danish tumblers go. Each
one was chosen in competitive
trials to determine the best of that
country’s gymnasts. f
tumbling this group will put on
typical Danish folk dances. All of
these dances will be done in the renewed
Danish native costumes,
ere of retail price
der state fair trade
gathering their
renewed onslai
gives
the audience a chance to see the
same type of entertainment that
the Danes ha,ve.
All it!" all .the Danish tumblers
make for an interesting and color
ful if not disastrous evening of en
tertainment. | 7 i

History tells us that our pilgrim fathers did
not celebrate that first Thanksgiving Day alone.
To their feast they invited a band of friendly
Indians. * j-|
The copper-skinned guests could not under-
•tand pale-face theology. But they did under
stand friendship and thankfulness. In their own
way, they had for centuries worshipped the Great
Spirit. • |! I I k
; Men of faith are easily drawn together by their
common belief in a being greater than themselves.
Though they be of different nations or races, they
can appreciate and respect each other's spiritual
searching.
We should be thankful today that across most
of the earth the Christian religion is a unifying
bond. By supporting our own Chuirch, while
respecting the faith of others, we can strengthen
that unity.
