the seven pupils out of 200 in the
Asheville and Greenville schools of
dancing conducted by Miss Eleanor
Mofntt, to pass all five of the
senior dance tests that were given

her teacher, as she has taken only
one lesson a week while the other
students have had two each dur
ing the same period.
Miss Martin received ratings on
her certificate of 100 per cent on
all the following subjects: char
acter dancing, ballet, toe work,
acrobatic tap style and rhythm.

number of years and has appeared

outstanding in her style, stage
presence, and the professional
manner in which she executes all
her dances.

al field until she has completed her
education. Miss Martin is a high
