TACKLER DBAMATIC CLUB THE DRAMATIC CLUB, under the direction of Mrs. Mayer, presented the Min- strel Show at the annual bazaar. The most interesting presentation was The Maker of Dreams, Oliphant Down's fantastic play dealing with the love tangle of two young people. Anna Kruger effectively and understandingly played Pier- ette and Julia Scrupska gave Pierrot the right note of foolish and giddy phi- landering. It may easily be said that Shirley Katz was a natural maker of dreams. THE GLEE CLUB THE GLEE CLUB has played a thoroughly interesting part in the school ac- tivities. Under the direction of Mrs. Hill, a new member of our faculty, the club has participated in several assemblies, particularly the Christmas one, at which they sang three-part selections of beautiful Christmas carols. Their broadcast over WCAO on March 27 made the school quite proud of them. The girls, singing at the lNIarch P.-T. A. meeting made the parents happy to know that the school has such a fine club. The outstanding event of the club was the operetta, Miss Cherry Blos- som, given at Clifton Park Junior High School on April 3. This is the first G. V. S. operetta in which there were male voices. Special music for the commence- ment was the final work of the year for this outstanding group. JUNIOR CLUB . THE JUNIOR CLUB was organized in September 1935. The purpose of the club is to help the junior classes to become better acquainted with each other and give them the opportunity to enjoy various social functions. Mrs. Batt, Miss Lewis, and Miss Swift, the advisers, with a combined committee of representa- tives from each class, accomplished the aim through social gatherings, a tea dance, hiking, and ice skating. TAP CLUB THE TAP CLUB was organized several years ago in our school by the present instructor, llliss Pruss. It has a membership of almost one hundred girls who have been learning many types of tap dancing steps and routines. The club offers a recreational value as well as entertainment. The I'I1CHlbC1'S gave an interesting assembly and participated in the program for the March P.-T. A. meeting. TUMBLING By Virginia Chaillou and Jllarie Kipke A PHYSICALLY STRONG Bom' is one that enables us to meet the demands of our environment. Tumbling, perhaps more than any other sport, embodies the primitive exercising of jumping, climbing, running, pushing, and rolling. It is very helpful because it develops the large muscles of the trunk. In order to learn to tumble one need not be exceedingly strong, but one should be agile and have a perfectly controlled form. Agility implies adequate strength, control implies grace. Tumbling is indeed a pleasant activity, and as it requires willing- ness instead of skill, anyone can enjoy this fo1'm of exercise. 39
