Professionalism marked dance troupe’s programs, activities Dionysus. It was a dance troupe with all the requirements of a pro- fessional organization. Members had to be asked to join after auditions; they were expected to maintain a professional pride in their perfor- mances and in their choreography; and they were a recognized elite on campus. Dionysus concentrated on mod- ern forms of dance in their three concerts during the year. In order to help finance their per- formances, the troupe sold mirrors and cand at various times during the year. Dionysus.

New sponsor, flags highlight Pom’s year Beginning the year without a sponsor put the Pom Pon line a bit behind but the appointment of Ms. Lillian Gomez after the first month gave them the organization and drive required to become a top-flight group. Sophomore Eva Shivers summed the Lines’ feelings. “A lot of times it was hard for us to get things together, and sometimes it almost seemed impossible to think that things would work out. But, somehow, we always seemed to pull through and, by working together, things worked out.” Working with the Buff Band took on a new wrinkle as the Pommies hoisted flags and per- formed as a Flag Line for several of the Band’s best shows, particularly the one where they were rated Superior at the NAU Band Day competi- tion.

Club aims at friendship Understanding each other and learning to know everyone as individuals were what Any- town was all about. “It is an organization where everyone really gets to know each other,” according to Senior Aileen Balizado. Using increased communica- tions skills was one of the pri- mary methods used by club mem- bers to break down racial and cultural barriers, two of the major aims of the group. Interact aims to interact with community The major goal of Interact is “to interact with other club members, with our school and with our community,” according to club pres- ident Jane Christiansen. After starting the year with a new sponsor, English teacher Mr. Don Benjamin, the club held a dance for the students at Getz School, a school for the mentally and physically handi- capped. They helped sponsor the Mistletoe dance at Christmas whose royalty was selected mostly on the basis of what they had done for the communmity. Jane said, “Our intent was to see that some recognition as royalty was given to students who were not selected prim- arily on the basis of popularity or looks.” The club also sold canlendars and stickers to help finance their activities.
