campus for their annual show in
Memorial Coliseum.
Formed To Give Program
Troupers was first organized in
1939-4- 0
to give a graduation program for Winchester High School.
Officials from Winchester High
asked the Physical Education Department at UK to furnish a tumbling act for the graduation.
A small group was picked and a
show was put on. When the group
returned from Winchester they decided to form a permanent organization.
From these first tumbling acts
the group was expanded to include
singers, dancers, clowns and other
variety acts. These additions were
first made to fill in gaps between
tumbling acts but now each has its
own definite place.
Troupers functioned until Dec. 7,
1941 when war was declared with
Japan. The group ,was disbanded
