Scope and content
Swimming was a popular sport in the 1950's; young teens also were interested in synchronized routines. These four young girls practiced their synchronized swimming in the Y.W.C.A. pool. Here they stand in a January, 1956, photograph, demonstrating the lifted knee, pointed toe position they would soon resume in the water. The girls are dressed similarly in form fitting tops with short skirts, roped necklaces and swim caps. The third girl from the left has been identified as Grace Williams. Photograph ordered by the Y.W.C.A.
