WRA Who said women are the weaker sex? There is no sign of feminine frailty evident in the activities sponsored by the Women's Recreation Association. In the numerous clubs and activities, there are individual forms of recreation to interest any girl. Selected in the all-University elections, Barbara Haun is serving WRA as president for 1956-57; Virginia Hunt, vice-president; Linda Adamitz, secretary; Jean Redman, treasurer; and Jean Dissinger, intramurals chairman. You'll try out for rchesis if you're interested in modern dance. Members of Orchesis present a show each year in addition to learning new steps at the weekly meetings. Watch for notices of try-out dates in The Daily Iowan. Perhaps you're interested in other forms of dance. The Social Dance Club is the spot for you, then, to learn everything from jitterbug and social dancing to the polka and folk dancing. [hand drawing of girl] Sports are offered in their seasons by WRA. In fall, the Hockey Club is active on the field near the Women's Gym. Basketball and badminton are played during the winter months, while tennis is included in the spring and fall. The Stunts and Tumblng Club meets twice weekly in the Women's Gym for work on the trampoline and in gymnastics. All these clubs usually meet two or three days a week for a period of about eight weeks. If swimming is your star achievement, you'll want to try out for Seals, the feminine counterpart of the Dolphins. Members of Seals work on synchronized swimming, diving, and water ballet. As part of the Mother's Day Weekend each spring, the annual Seals Show is presented. In Penguins you can learn basic skills of synchronized swimming and polish up your techniques, although the club is entirely separate from Seals. The Crafts Club will give you an opportunity to work with metal, leather, and ceramics. Even if you haven't done much craft work before you join the club, you can become a member through interest alone. If you want to "bone up" on your knowledge of collegiate football, 27
