[edit] Leo vandendale, US Junior Olympic Gymnastic Champion, 1928
Hello,
I wonder if anyone has any information about or pictures of my father, Leo Francis Vandendale, who was 1928 US Junior Olympic Gymnastic Champion representing the Los Angeles Athletic Club. Later he attended USC and joined a group of acrobats called the "Four Trojans", which toured Europe and the United States. I was told that he was photographed in newsreels doing a one-armed handstand on top of the Empire State Building and could do 3 1/2 summersaults over the backs of a dozen men! Perhaps these are only hand-me-down stories told to children that parallel popular "urban ledgends" or perhaps these stories are based on real accomplishments. I would greatly appreciate any information about his history with the LA Athletic Club or knowledge you may share. Write me, Leland van den Daele, at vdd@psychodiagnostics.com —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Satananda (talk • contribs) 05:12, 22 February 2007 (UTC).
