Club held its first annual banquet
April 22, in the banquet hall of
the Fuji Chop Suey. The affair
scheduled to start at 7:00 p.m.,
did not get under way until 8:3o’
owing to the lack of punctuality
of the members.
After a delicious dinner, the
dancing was started by the faststepping Kaz Suga, who was soon
joined by the whole group in trip
ping the many intricate dance
steps which the young Niseis seem
so fond of.
In all a very pleasant evening
was had by all, and here’s hoping
the Gakuyukai has a bigger and
better badminton club next season.

that memorable evening. I noticed that for Deborah life did begin at'1
8:40 that night.
Tlwoughout the whole performance of "O Liberty," an American
dance saga in three acts with music by Jess Meeker, she sat with rapt
expression on her face as she followed the easy, graceful and rhythmic!

Displaying noteworthy physical training and discipline they inter
preted the advance of American civilization from the days of the Aztecs
through the present age to the future which was illustrated with the
Kinetic Molpai, an ancient art form, by means of which the expression

After the performance we made our way backstage surreptitiously

Brilliantly do Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers relive the colorful

Equally fascinating and much more virile was the presentation of i
Shawn and his men dancers at the Lyric Theatre.
j
I can recollect in a vague way "Life Begins at 8:40," the title of j
a series of musicals by Noel Coward, but when the curtain went up j
that memorable evening. I noticed that for Deborah life did begin at'1
8:40 that night.
Tlwoughout the whole performance of "O Liberty," an American
dance saga in three acts with music by Jess Meeker, she sat with rapt
expression on her face as she followed the easy, graceful and rhythmic!
artistry of these godlike descendants of Bacchus.
Displaying noteworthy physical training and discipline they inter
preted the advance of American civilization from the days of the Aztecs
through the present age to the future which was illustrated with the
Kinetic Molpai, an ancient art form, by means of which the expression
of man's desires was sensitively executed.
After the performance we made our way backstage surreptitiously
where Deborah’s "gods" came down to earth.
