Then they began drilling tor the exhibition in groups according to the number ot points they received. One advantage of tumbling is that the girls are given an equal chance to display their ability individually, and then, too, they can do some- thing originalg tor example, in building pyra- mids they get together in groups to see which can produce the best. Shuttle, tap, step, was just one of the many expressions used by Miss Ingham while after- school tap was in session. At first a great num- ber turned out, but gradually the number decreased, because some thought the routine too ditticult. A great majority ot the dancers were Freshmen, who, although they seem to decrease in size every year, are always good dancers. Norma Exner, a graduating Senior, who has played the piano for the dancers in the gym exhibition the last tour years, will really be missed next year by Miss Ingham. She was always on the job when the piano was needed. A stranger walking into the gym on some of the tap nights might have thought a sort ot jam session was going on. ln one corner ot the gym the tappers would be going through their dance together with Miss Ingham, while at the other end a group of special tumblers would be doing some acrobatics.

These objects can be found only in the halls.

skaters would be going 'round and 'round and sometimes down. Much time and effort are spent by both Miss lngham and Miss Adams in getting the tap and tumbling together with all the other sports in top shape for the exhibition, which was held April 21, in the boys' gym. Many people look forward to the exhibi- tion and come year after year. As usual, a good crowd attended. The tumblers in their red and blue costumes are always a main at- traction. Then, too, variety of tap dances always make a hit, especially the advanced tap, because of the more difficult steps in- volved. Besides the tap dancing there were folk dancing and a soft shoe number. Then there were the miscellaneous features such as badminton, paddle tennis, volleyball, basket- ball, speedball, and ping pong. All in all, the exhibition is a demonstration of what the girls do in class. Shouts and cheers greet baseball because the girls are eager to be outdoors after being kept in all winter. Over the fence is out, and Whoever puts the ball on the roof must get it, are just a couple of Central home-made base- ball rules. The baseball tournament ended the sports program for the year. The last get-together before the Seniors donned their caps and gowns to say farewell was the C.G.A.A. banquet held May 24. The girls always look forward to this event because the officers are announced. Each old officer in Page One Hundred Seven Top picture: Senior Second Team Speedball, front row, left to right- I..
