From Can-Cans to Modem Jazz Terpsichoreans Saddle-Up for Dance Honors A running angel. the hand shake. and the back-bend leap were name.s of several modern dance steps practiced by Aglaia members at their weekly workouts. Aglaia was formed for the primary purpo.se of enabling girls interested in dance to learn routines and to express their creative abilities in an atmosphere unhindered by grades. While not in- volved in club activities, such as practicing dance lifts with the Weightlifting Club or preparing for one of the school assemblies, many of the members found themselves engrossed in a busy exchange of nickles and dimes at the concession stand during football season. The profits made went toward schol- arships awarded to the best dancer and financing Orchesus. This newly formed club consisted of the outstanding dance students and stage crew members. With balance, grace, and fingers crossed, Kathi Garner exhibits a new lift as she is assisted by t)rchesus sponsor, Mr. Ron Miller. Orchesus members (top to bottom): S. Keating, L. D ' .Ambrosi, C. Banach, T. Carter, R. Gourley, L. Cobabe, and M. McDaniels were required to earn a total of 250 points in dance or stage activities. The members must have attended school dance productions, belonged to Aglaia or the Weightlifting Club, worked on make-up, stage crew, or publicity, had satisfactory citizenship, and must have been a mem- ber of the production class. Extra points were gained through assist- ing in a dance class, tr ing out for shows, making costumes, and at- tending outside dance programs as well as dance classes.

The films taught members the techniques and safety rules of skiing without going to the snow. They cut down the risk of a skier get- ting hurt on his first Ski Trip. The films also showed, for more advanced members, the art of rescue, jumping, and racing. Kaulukukui, D. Oliver; (third row) : S. Stanfield, T. Clark, L. Johns, J. Galloway, K. Topel, P. Rogers, N.
