Scottish Darners Revive ZraditioH One word that can be used to describe a vi- vacious group of girls who spend many hours of hard work and practice is enthusiasm. The Scottish Dancers are certainly enthusiastic about the work of the club and the effort which they put out certainly proves this statement. Among the performances given annually by the group are: the assembly for the student body, the competition with other folk groups at the State Fair (which was a First Place for the Dancers for the past two years), the dance during half-time activities at the homecoming game honoring the new queen, and Grandfather Mountain Highland Games held in the summer when they compete for medals. In addition to this, the club is asked to give programs for various organizations and to perform during Fourth of July celebrations. Not only do the girls show enthusiasm and provide entertainment for their audiences, they also carry out the history and tradition of our section of North Carolina. Fayetteville was set- tled by the early Scots. These dances which the Scots brought over were done for recreation, thus the Scottish Dancers serve in the preserva- tion of the history of our area. Under the leadership of Mrs. Wilma Godwin, the advisor, the club has had an outstanding year. It is a highly recognized organization in which unity is one of its greatest attributes. SCOTTISH D. NCER OFFICERS: President, Suzanne Ishee; Vice President, Beth Morrison; Secretary, Georgianna Baucom and Treasurer, Lucy Safran. ADVISOR AND MASCOT: Mrs. Godwin and Anne Byrd Morrison. Against tlie setting sun, the silhouettes of these two Scottish Dancers recall the heritage of the Scots. 109

Besides the interest created through the learning of a language, German Club members have many ties that bind them into a more closely knit club. Many of the members, including the advisor, Mrs. Smith, are of German descent. Others have visited or lived in the country and are personally acquainted with its people and customs.

They also enjoyed a Christmas party filled with the merri- ment of the true German spirit. 108
