O BHS DANCE REVUE DELIGHTS CROWD The Dance Revues presented by Bingham high school have come to be events much appre-ciated by the many in this dis-trict who enjoy art in any form. The program last Friday even-ing in the school auditorium was received with delight by an au-dience of satisfying size. The 18 members of the Dance club, under Miss Virginia Har-ris, director, revealed surprising talent. The creative effects var-ied from the comic or strongly rhythmical to the highly imagin-ative and beautiful. Most difficult expressions which the girls attempted to con-vey were "Power", solo number by Betty Byrne, dance club pre-sident, and "Pleading", credit-ably performed by Joy Dean Davies. The costumes for these dances were effective. The pro-gram in its entirety was made more enjoyable because the par-ticipants were aided in realizing the desired affect by the costum-ing which in each instance was ideal for that number. "Religion", as presented by Lola Jean Gammell, Margaret Mannion and Darlene Johnson, was appealing. In their virginal white robes of simple line, the trio achieved" the mood they were seeking to express. The nationality dances, Hung-arian Rhapsody, Swedish Schot-tisch- e, Baile de Tango and the Native Fire dance, made up a favorite group. Joyce Murray and the young-er dancers of "School Days ', pre-sented the sole tap number. Miss Murray's pupils included Janice Hansen, Carol Peterson, Nancy Anderson, Jayne Bigler, Colleen Robison, Geraldine Pollock and Joyce Miller. Connie Brown in "Diving" and as der fuehrer in "Politics ' sup-plied comic relief. Faye McKel-lar, the other soloist in "Politics", appeared in more dances than any other member of the club and managed to be outstanding in a group of loyely and grace-ful girls. . Beverly Scussel had the spot-light in "Fencing", an interest-ing and unusual number. Five boys assisted in the row-dy and entertaining "Square dance". These fellows, Jimmy Epis, Jay Cheever, Keith Timo-thy, Clayton deBruin and Ken-neth Ray, also took part in a showy ballroom number, "Beau-tiful Lady". Mrs. E. Odell Peterson, speech instructor, gave Alan Seoger's "Rendezvous With Death". As-sisting her in the moving read-ing was Miss Margaret Ireland, who played a piano selection, "Elegie" by Massenet. Jack Knudsen, accompanied by Shir-ley Parkin on the piano, played a cornet solo, "Stars In A Vel-vety Sky" by Herbert L. Clarke. The entire Dance club and Miss Harris took part in the "Struggle Between Life and Death", a stu-dy of contrasts and difficult techniques. Closing number was "Blue Danube", by Miss Harris and Betty Byrne, in which the dance movement and flowing melody were perfectly synchronized to achieve a happy union of artistry and beauty. Besides the soloists already mentioned, included in the Dance club are Edith Hornickel, Faye Cowdell, Elma Strelich, Lois Larsen, Ruth McKellar. Maurine Hyland, Betty Fifiela, Jackie Barlow and Donna Tibbie. iSEBALL TEAM GOESTO PROVO lie Bingham high school ball team travels to Provo ly (Friday) to defend the championship from on-ig- ht of the Provo high school $. tops in the Alpine league.
