The highlight of our gymnastic exhibition was the Men in Silver tableau. Um famed On April 27, 1955, the North Allegheny first annual gym show concluded months of practice and fun. Every day after school, 300 students from grades 7-ll improved their skills. Tumbling routines, consisting of rolls, head stands, flips and spills, gave the mats quite a workover. The equipment proved to be the most popular. Split jumps over the bucks, and flips over the horse were per- formed by the girls. The fellows went one step further and did rolls and dives. The spring bar and parallel bars were a medium on which students proved very versatile. Large groups of students did precision movements to Tea for Two, a tap dance and a rousing march which formed the background for a calisthentic review. Folk dances were also perfected by girls in barefeet. Finally, when the night came, parents, friends and gym enthusiasts flocked into the gym, packing the bleachers to overflowing. Tired and aching muscles were forgotten as the students performed for the enthusiastic audience. The routines went smoothly and every performer did a terrific job. The climax of the evening and the most oustanding part was the Men in Silver. Muscular fellows became creatures from a story book, as they were painted with cl special silver paint. The gym was darkened and the boys paraded out and took positions typical of different sports. When the spotlights were focused on them, they were transformed into silver statues with bulging muscles. This was o spectacular conclusion to a spectacular show. 108 I I O I
