JAKE BRACKER, Editor

of the work is done by trained assist
ants, who were formerly members OF
Miss Berchtold's classes. They are
Misses Mary E, McGookin, Alta Mae
Osborn and Helen Perry.
Miss Margaret Hurley, physical di-
rector of the Phoenix Union high
school, is in charge of the physical
education for women. At the present
time she has a class in outside bas-
ketball and hopes soon to organize a
class in volley ball. 1t is not known
whether Miss Hurley will conduct a
social dancing class this year.
One of the pleasantest features of
the first dance of the summer quar- !
ter was the acuuaintanceships formed
by the student body and the faculty. /
Faculties are usually funny because
they are too serious. However, this IS |
not the case with the university and
normal faculties because they appar-
entity had more fun than the students.
1t was like big family. Everybody
had a printed card with their name
and address pinned on their person.
succession of gay tunes made the feet
of many dancers lively. The Normal
Ragadors' orchestra was playing, and
the slender voice of the violin, the in
sistent droning of the drums, mingled
with the jazzy tunes Of the banjo
Folk danced, and when they agreed
to rest, the tireless musicians teased
them into the slow, rythmic glide of
waltz or fox trot.
A great deal Of interest has been
created around the school about the
open air dance to be given by the
Woman's club of Flagstaff on the
tennis courts tonight. This is going
to be jitney dance. Ice cream, home
made cake, lemonade will be offered
for sale and nothing will cost over
five cents. Waters orchestra will
furnish the music.
Recreation of many kinds are en-
phasized on week-ends. When Sat-
urday comes it is the signal for a
somewhat general exodus from the
dornlitories and work of the school.
Some will go fishing, some will find
their recreation in campus games such
as tennis, some will plan picnics at
the lakes or will hike to Observatory
hill, Mt. Eden or similar places of
interest; others, however, will take
trips by auto to the more distant
points of interest. Flagstaff normal
truly is located in the heart Of Ari-
zona's wonderland.
