Cadymettes Perform D Complicated Routines Cadymettes, girls' drill team, and Wiona, girls' sports organization, recognized the athletic skills of Wilson's girls. Together they inspired an active interest in physical fitness. Early in the summer of 1964, interested girls began practicing to develop co-ordination in marching, the basic requirement for membership in Cadymettes. Twenty-seven girls met this re- quirement and began practicing for their first performance at the Grid-Go-Round. Throughout the football and basketball seasons, the girls entertained half-time audiences by performing various dance routines and maneuvers. In the Daffodil Parade, Cadymettes proudly represented Wilson for the last time this year. Cadymettes practice marching routines. 6

Seeking to learn the basic skills ot precision swimming and grace in the water, titty girls met each Thursday afternoon tor Doll-phin practice in the Wilson pool. Under the direction ot Miss Blaser, Doll-phins learned many techniques, in- cluding a surface dive, an underwater 360 de- gree turn, and an underwater backward somer- sault - the porpoise, the marlin, and the dolphin, respectively. Weekly gym and swimming exercises were a regular part ot training tor both Doll-phins and Pogies, Doll-phin understudies. In the spring show, Dance Around the World, girls displayed aquatic interpretations ot native dances from France, Spain, Hungary, and other countries.

Having participated in three team sports, one hobby sport, one optional sport, and at least five organized hikes to vvin her athletic letter, each member of Wiona continued to develop her athletic skills. Many Wiona members spent after- school hours playing volleyball, basketball, speedball, softball, and field hockey, or swim- ming in Wilson's pool. The second and fourth Mondays of each month were spent at meetings in which members made arrangements for various activities. The most an- ticipated event of the year, a potluck lunch, pro- vided them with the opportunity to meet other Tacoma high school girls with athletic interests.
