Roberta Haney, Celia Lermon, Dorothy Hammond, Linda Hicks, Frances Jones, and Carolyn Downer. The Gymnastics Club this year was smaller in size than in previous years but it was certainly not smaller in talent. This small group of determined hi school girls was striving to do some of the things they had been exhibiting. The group was divided into four smaller groups. The modern dance group interpreted music with body movements. The floor exercise group took ordinary exercises and put them to music. The balance beam group did exercises on the balance beam which took much skill and co-ordination. These routines were put to music. Tire tumbling group performed series of rolls, dives, and pyramids. The Gymnastics Club was headed by Carolyn Downer, and Linda Hicks, and directed by Mrs. McCloskey. The girls planned two programs, one for the P. T. A. and one for assembly. 30
