Principal Jennings? You still look so young!

Back in the '30s the BHS cheer squad was considerably smaller than their present-day counter parts. And there's no way the guys hoisted these nearly-gowned gals over their heads like our super-athletic cheerleaders today. But they were thrilled to have a state-of-the-art stadium to strut their stuff--and luckier still to have a Principal Jennings look-alike (third from left). Notice how the then-treeless field perimeter offers clear sight to a string of North Spring Street homes where people often stood on roofs to watch the games.
