Page Fifty GPCLL5 With drums drumming, flags flying, and clowns cavorting, the Sixth Annual Zion-Benton High School Circus pulled into town. Of course the highlight of the circus was the crowning of the Queen, Miss Alice lones. She was crowned by Miss Billie DeYoung, last year's retiring Queen, and was attended by seven of her classmates, Florence Beebe, Audrey Bourdeau, Ioan Brune, loan Bryant, Bettie Haas, Mary Holenski, and Dorothy Welton. Now! On with the show!! The audience next viewed the Freshmen Boy's Commando Relay. Over the bar, through the barrels, on through the course they went. Then came Display No. 3-The Artist of the Slackwire, Carlton Brown. Breathtaking silence fell over the crowd as they watched our artist walk not only frontwards, but back- wards, also, on the swaying wire. Thump! Thump! Thump! What's that!! Don't be alarmed. It is only the girls keeping trim the rhythmic gymnastic way. But now, here comes the six Stalwarts of the air. They per- formed such acts of strength as chinning themselves with one hand, and hanging by their toes and heels. At this time our audience enjoyed Dancing Tambourines by our talented dancer, Carlene Mischler. Zoom! Over she goes! The girls tumbling team was at per- fection as they somersaulted over many human bodies without a mishap. Come on boys! Pull hard. And the boys did pull hard. They showed their skill by putting three men on a rope at one time. The Iron law Wizards, Bob Bailey and Everett Walters, astounded the patrons by swinging across the gym without the aid of their hands. No false teeth there! Zoom! Now over head flew six daring girls on the flying trapeze. Many of the parents in the audience had heart failure as these daredevils swung from hanging by their knees to hanging by their ankles. The Boy's High Diving Championship was won all three nights by lack McDowell with Herb Savage and Elmer Maynard as runner ups. The other boys offered stiff competi- tion, however.
