Use '\n'.join(handle[1:])
It will create a string from your list with newline as separator.

The lines from readlines() include the newlines already.

Ah, OK, I couldn't remember if readlines stripped them off or not.

print>>out, handle[1:]

 In the out file, it saves the lines as a list rather than as a string.

use
 out.writelines(handle[1:])

Or if you really want to use the print style

print>>out, ''.join(handle[1:])

ie join the lines using an empty string.
