NEW YORK "Even Hollywood
couldn't lure me from the circus."
Youthful blonde Jeanne Sleeter,
circus aerlalist, who expressed her
sentiments that waV. Just about
sums up the attitude of circus folk
toward The Big Top.
The attractive Jeanne recently
had a very good chance to set her
trapeze for the cinema. She is in
several stunts, including substitut
ing as aerialist for Betty Ilutton in
the forthcoming movie "The
Greatest Show on Earth" but
movietown glamor doesn't compare
with circus life as far as she's con
cerned. Says she:
"It's quite a temptation, I
know. And lots of young people
would love it. But nothing can
compare with the circus when
you're born into it."
Jeanne's grandparents owned
the Moore circus. Hei father was
an aerialist and herrffotlrcr va?
a trapeze star. Jeanne was born
21 years ago, practically under
the circus tent, at Peru, Indiana,
during the Hagenbuch, Wallace,
Cole circus stay there. Her father
now manages the Worth circus in
Australia.
She never has pined for a little
rose covered cottage with a white
picket fence, and permanent mail
box "Nice to think about," she
admits, "but it would be awfully
dull after this. When you're part
of the circus, the moving caravan is
your home."
Kids who get the idea it would
be fun to join a circus get a word
of caution from Jeanne, who says:
"It's a wonderful life, but It's
r.ot all play. It would be a ter
rific readjustment for girls or
boys who are used to family life
and permanent things. After they
got on to the ropes however,
they'd love it."
On the other hand Jeanne thinks
that perhaps most people get the
impression that circus life h not
normals nq real friends, 'arid never
a home. Says she:
"I have friends and homes in all
the big cities New York, Chicago
and the west coast. It is a lovely
life, but not for the pirl who might
become nostalgic about it all. Me
I look forward to each stop."
Romance is something else again.
It is not easy to find, but one
meets boys as frequently as city
girls do, perhaps. Jeanne, sitting
on a trunk backstage at Madison
Square Garden indicated the young
boys rushing past and said "Most
of the circus boys are married.
But I'm not interested in romance
at the moment, anyway."
She is one of Ringling Brothers
Barnum and Bailey circus' main
aerial ists having been taught by
Art Concello, now the circus man
ager, her father and uncle, Tuffy
Gander , a once-famous aerialist.
Once when she was doing a pass
ing leap, she took a bad spill. A
neck Injury kept her out of the act
for several weeks.
The only other time she Rub
bed out was when an elephant
who was supposed to carry her
with one leg In his mouth, grasp
ed her by the knee joint instead
of the calf, Injuring her knee
rartilege. x
She got back on the swing soon,
however, as "all circus hands fight
to get back in the ring after an
accident." Loyalty keeps circus ab
sentee lists at a minimum.
Jeanne took correspondence
courses which put her thrdugh the
eighth grade. Says she: '
"You learn so much about hu
man nature in the circus that you
never feel cheated of formal
schooling,"
Apparently it is more than glam
or that keeps the circu girl in
The Big Show. They are constant
ly traveling in trains equipped
with special cars with "berths fix
ed up like little homes'' as Jeanne
puts it, and separate cars for mar
ried people. Most beginners only
make about $r0 a wetk whether
they ride elephants or wire-walk
Lots of them marry circus folk and
under the tent it is like one big
happy family. Children such as
Jeanne carry on the family Cir
cus tradition. Jeanne lives only to
guests of Miss Collie Garner Vno.i
Hsh teacher at the College and
Miss Mary Wanda Peek, student
and cousin of Miss Peggy Peek.

she-

a brother. If could have a broth
er to carry on with me, it would be
wopderful. I'm the only member

Chances are that Jeanne will
marry a big-top man and have that
wish fulfilled. If only there were
more bachelors in the circus!
