Modern Dame The agile dancers have come to rest, engrossed, as in- structor Caryl E. Cuddeback demonstrates a new motion technique. The lithe group, giving a physical interpretation to 111u- sic, use their hands and bodies as media of expression. The dancers learn to glide gracefully, sometimes cautious- ly, and even gleefully across the fioor. Twisting. turning, jumping, and skipping with the rhythm of the music, the group develops poise, balance, and coordination. Soon the dancers above will again commence action, gracefully molding their bodies to the rhythm of the music. Dancing almost to exhaustion, the members here have devoted themselves to an increasingly popular, al- though often misunderstood art. The fuzz Combo lt's late afternoon, and the campus is nearly deserted when the jazz group warms up with those 'acool soundsi' calculated to drive the audiophile towards limbo. Many of the numbers the group plays are composed and arranged by its members under the guidance and su- pervision of Mr. John B. Cirimele. Striving to present an intangible feeling through music, the group remains composed and the smooth sounds flow with an undercurrent of primitive driving rhythm -each member expressing himself with his instrument, sometimes adding, complementing, or leading this vivid group of musical expressionists.
