Janus says she wants the squad to represent all "sexes and races." The squad now has a few white and Asian-American members, but most are black. Cheerleader Ellen D.

Estroff herself tried Prolixin to experience its effects, but quit abruptly after six weeks of tremors, only to plummet into near-suicidal...
