Meredith College was well represented in the Wake Forest Society Circus that was staged in the Wake Forest gymnasium last Friday night. The Circus was on the same order as the Raleigh-Wake Society Circus held in the Auditorium several weeks ago.
The opening event was a song by Annabel Bridger of Meredith. Her selection was “Song of the Robin.” Following her, several dances were given by Dr. J. Richard Crozier and his daughter Dolores, also of Meredith College. The first dance was the dance of the clowns and was admirably presented by the couple.
Professor A.F. Bowen entertained the audience with 20 minutes of modern thaumatology, which was pleasing to the spectators both on account of Professor Bowen’s entertaining manner and his proficiency in the art of magic. The next number on the program was an Oriental dance given by Miss Maxine Cox of Wake Forest. Her costume, well adapted for the occasion, combined with her ability in the practice of interpretive dancing made the dance most entertaining.
The Wake Forest gymnasium class then presented several acts of the Roman Ladder gymnastics which was given in the Raleigh-Wake Shrine Society Circus.
As final numbers on the program Miss Annabel Bridger sang “Yesterday and Today,” and a one act farce was given by a number of Meredith girls. The play was “Rubber Boots” and was presented by Misses Lidie Penton, Evelyn Bridger, Evelyn Sentell, Lila Earl Dowell. The play was among the most enjoyable features of the program and was enjoyed by all.
