In addition to these dances the girls featured tumbling acts, a colorful Waltz, and a combined boys' and girls' marching drill. There were three senior girls who graduated from the ranks oi' the girls, gym clubg they are: Lois Anthony, Helen Krawchuk, and Vivian Mooney. Under the guidance of Mr. Lutz the boys gym club practiced at first during regular gym club periods, and then, as the exhibition date approached, in the evenings.
