Women spectators at wrestling, Sydney Stadium, 1940

    nla.gov.au/nla.obj-466499855 - a cropped version of this pic, showing the 3 girls on the left, appeared in Pix on 29th June, 1940, in a feature article titled 'Psychologist Tells: Why Women Go to Wrestling'...see pp. 6-7. 'O-o--o-o-h! These Three Girls Miss Enid Pickworth (clerk), Miss Beryl McClivie (typist) and Miss Dot Doherty (machinist) seldom miss a wrestling match. They belong to a party of 12 girls organised by Mrs. E. Skodder, probably Australia's keenest wrestling fan. In 1936 she was manager of bantam-weight boxer, Harry Cohen - [the] only woman in Australia to fill such a position. This party tops Sydney Stadium's "regular" list.' - caption accompanying photo on p.7. Enid Pickworth appears in another photo in this Pix article...she's the girl on the left clasping her hands...I suspect Beryl McClivie's surname was misspelled or maybe her friends called her 'McClivie'...my guess is her surname might have been McClive... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/247775321 - the Daily Telegraph, 21st August, 1939...'Somebody said - Ladies love a fight - So we asked 'em'...similar kind of article here...

    Dean Z, thanks for all of the Yale football player identifications. We'll add their full names to the catalog record and say that they played on the football team.
