ancing Veiled harem dancers, swaying hula dancers, their feet flying to the rhythm of the music: rainbow danc- ers, parading the colors of the rainbow: and orches- tral interludes, exemplify the production of A'Rain- bow Fantasiesnz all of which the camera has re- corded to refresh our minds. Adagio dancers, smooth and practiced, balancing carefully: boys awkwardly graceful, tripping fliteral- lyl their version of an airy ballet: and wideaeyed girls, tapping their way across the stage. were combined to produce an original dance review, 87

Grea tive Bare arms and legs, flash- ing under the impersonal glow of colored lights: twinkling toes, almost in- visible in their flowing rapidity: the soft Uswish- swishn of swirling cos- tumes against lithe bodies are reminiscent of the dance revue, the result of the efforts of three dancing classes. 1 w l Shy girls, their timid eyes fastened to the back walls of the auditorium: bolder girls, their eyes laughing conhdently at the audi- ence: short girls, small and petite: and tall girls with gracefully modulated movements and all culmin- ating their efforts in Rainbow Fantasies.

The athletic enterprises at the home of the Millard Eagles ended this spring when our cinder artists walked off with the third consecutive regional track and field championship. A double victory over our neighbors from Delta and Hinckley, in two tri- angular meets, one in our own backyard, the other at Delta, opened the track season. A trip to Provo to participate in the B.Y.U.'s relay meet followed- lt was here that the true strength of our team revealed itself. For the first time in years we scored only one victory-the mile relay. Coach Watts knew then. that in order to defend the region 6 crown successfully, he had to produce a team of balanced power. The hopetto garner points fell on those who could gain second, third, fourth and fifth places. Not quality, but quantity must act to save the Eagles' fame. It worked . . . With 6416 points, as against Beavers 48M points, the nearest competitor, the track meet of our region stood once more under the domina- tion of the Millardmen. Their performances, on their own field, before over- filled grandstands, thrilled their supporters and will be long remembered. There were no boys on crutches, no faces bruised and bandaged. No, but there were runners who counted their strides between hurdles, fighters who spent long hours stretching their legs and who iinally broke the tape while stop- watches clicked. lt was they who furnished thrills and surprises. Their demon- strations to win when lungs and muscles ache brought the crowd to its feet. Speed, coordination and stamina won the heartiest of all onlookers.
