Learning the techniques of basketball, baseball, archery, badminton, volley ball and tennis, many Manual girls partici- pated in after school sports (1). Besides doing apparatus, sports, tumbling and tap work, Tepee Towners like Doris Pickering and Mary Drury learned dances such as the stick dance, one of the English Morris dances (2). Manual gymnasts presented the stick dance and an American country dance for a city- wide physical education program at Shortridge. With competition keen and interest high, some 40 femme keglers tried for a mystery prize for the first 200 game and an individual improvement award. Bowlers like Nancy Wilkins (3), mem- ber of the Pin Misses Team, tried to bowl ' em over to take the Lehmann team trophy from Five Sparks, Poodle Push- ers, Red Devils, Mell-Ga-Mas, Five Leaf Clovers, Manual Alley Cats or Five Strike Outs. Mr. Larry Lehmann, owner of the Fountain Square Bowling Alleys, offered the award for the team winning the most games. Miss Theo B. Parr sponsored the bowlers.

The Warriors dropped their first dual meet on the Southport oval, 65-51, al- though Jim Burks sported nice style when he copped the mile run and then came back with a win in the half-mile. The squad, under the direction of Mr. Raymond Van Arsdale, dash coach; Mr. Volney Ward, field events, and Mr. Bowman Hall, distance runners, didn ' t let an opening day setback dash their hopes, however. Jack Roberts (with pole) shows how it ' s done (1). Team mates, track queens Mary Jacobs, Ru Ann Cruse and Jackie Kendall, and field events coach Volney Ward look on. Ugh! said Ray Price as he demon- strated his broad jumping form (2). Marion Red Smith (3) cleared the bar with a western roll, while Man- ual ' s cannonball, Kirby Gahimer (4), showed his style at heaving the shot. Up and over went Jack Roberts (5) as he made the height and left his bam- boo buddy behind, while distance men lined up (6) then broke ranks (7) so Mr. Hall, far left, could check their time in the mile. i. ■ W ' %U, Ju :4U ' ' £ ' 19

WE LEARN... 7e Express Owselifes Because the person who has good ideas and is able to express himself well is the strongest enemy of a dictatorship, both foreign language and English classes are an integral part of education in a democracy. Latin students often relaxed with such activities as puppet shows and plays, and the English classes found that records not only were fun but also aided learning.
