SURE SIGN
Dancers practice a t W illiam s and G re e n la w
School o f Dance and Baton
Take one pair of tap shoes,
add one baton, mix in a gener
ous dose of experience, flavor
with patience and combine it all
together with an eager student.
While this recipe may not make
an award winning souffle it is
the basic formula Mr a. Beverly
Williams and Mrs. Royalene
Greenlaw are using to build a
succussful school of dance and
baton in Sheridan.
The studio was a sort of nat
ural outgrowing from the Willa-
Mette tw irlers that Mrs. Green
law taught and directed for three
years.
The tw irlers participated in
community evepts including Phil
Sheridan Days, Yamhill Derby
Day and Newport Loyalty Days.
The studio idea had been sug
gested to the two women before,
but it wasn’t until last August
that it actually became a reality.
Operating from their offices
at 130 E. Main in Sheridan, Mrs.
Williams and Mrs. Greenlaw are
currently working on forming
their Summer Parade Corps, a
sort of natural outgrowth of the
Willa - Mette tw irlers. The group
will be available to perform at
parades or other events. The
group is open for those between
the ages of 3 and 16.
The two do have a feather in
their bonnet, for at the Tuala
tin Valley Valentine contest which
was sponsored by the USDA.
Around 300 girls from Oregon
and Washington participated in
the events.
Of these Pam Pond of Grand
Ronde was a first place winner
in the solo twirl division.
The events included military
and basic strut and solo twirl
routines.
Mrs. Greenlaw was a majorette
during her high school days and
attended the Thunderbird Clinic
of Baton. She is a certified
USTA teacher.
Mrs. Greenlaw feels that baton
develops a girl’s poise as well
as bringing out her ability to
appear before the public as well
as grace and personality.
She also knows there are pro-’
fessional opportunities available
for both boys and girls in the
field.
Mrs. Williams dancing career
goes way back to when she was
three years old. At that time
she began to take dancing lessons
which she continued to take
through high school.
She has owned studios in Aber
deen and Hoquiam, Washington.
Music has always been an im
portant part of her life and she,
plays the piano by ear.
The two women agree that dance
and baton compliment each other
and are enthused about their
work.
The robins can’t be wrong. What
though
I see capricious flakes of snow
Come hurtling down with silent
shout?
They’re only seeing winter out!
The robins can’t be wrong.
The robins court. Their ancient
rite
Precedes the swallows homeward
flight
When swallows come, why, Spring
is here!
We bless you, Robin Redbreast
dear!

day morning en route to the Holy
Lands, for a short vacation and

hoe before returning home.
