ODERN DANCE M ativates Poise and Rhythm in Graceful M aneuvers Providing the opportunity for creativity in dance was one of the objectives of the Modern Dance Club. Members of the club learned to express their emotions with the use of music and dance. Poise, rhythm, and coordination resulted from their graceful and picturesque maneuvers. The members were enlightened 0n the vast and colorful history of contemporary dance and its predecessors. The Modern Dance Club gave its members helpful information which enabled them to skillfully per- form the various dance styles and basic positions. Under the sponsorship of Miss Daniels, the club has added its talents to the annual Christmas pro- gram and the Spring Concert. Since the members were at various stages of their choreographical de- velopment, the formation of three separate levels of the Modern Dance Club was a necessary measure. These divisions were based on the ability, moti- vation and productivity of the individual members. NORLAND MODERN DANCE CLUB OFFICERSeS. Hassen, Vice President; M. Kestner, Secretary; D.

GAA Awards Letters to Athletes at Annual S pring Banquet Crowning Lil, Abner and Daisy Mae at the an- nual Sadie Hawkins7 Dance was not the only goal of the dedicated girls who were members of the Girls, Athletic Association. These girls composed a major part of the sports day teams which competed with other schools in such varied sports as volleyball, basketball, softball, badminton, and track. The members also served as ofEcials and referees for sports day events at schools throughout the county. Days of practice and hard work were contributed by these girls to produce winning teams coached by both Miss Norton and Mrs. Malanaphy. The annual G.A.A. bake sale was welcomed by the student body whose voracious appetities turned such a production into a profitable venture. Funds were used at the end of the school year for the production of the annual banquet. At the spring banquet letters were awarded to the outstanding girl athletes for their performances during the year.

In addition to athletic contributions, the club members performed other services for the school. The Ttrecord boardw of current statistics and rec- ords was provided by this organization.
