Mrs. Snite can be largely credited with conceiving the idea of a stuâ€" dent vaudeville.

In a conâ€" ference with Superintendent Sandâ€" wick and several other teachers it was decided to initiate such an anâ€" nual performance and to offer a five dollar gold piece to the student submitting the best title for the show. All public and parochial puâ€" pils were invited to participate in the contest for a name. The following girls have been seâ€" lected to participate in a modern dance program for "Stunts": Ruth Chalmers, Doris Rafter, Dot Oweiss, Pat Flynn, Doris Ostrand, Rosaâ€" mond Degenhardt, Beatrice Gaidzik, Dot : Moldaner, Betty Breakwell, Ruby Zimmer, Jeanne Jenkins, Mary Heed, Lorraine â€" Weaver, Helen Laing, Margaret Finch, Midge Mitâ€" chell, Miriam:> Wichman, Lillian Glass, Peggy Juhrend, and Dot Lytle.
