Sock Hoppin’ Masquerade and Benefit Highlight Hop Calendar Sock hops reveal the energetic and wild sides of Andrean students. At the masquerade sock hop, weird beings danced and modeled costumes. On March 17 from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m., a special dance marathon raised funds to help Matt Suris’s family pay his hospital bills. Dancers were allowed a ten minute break each hour to rest and feed their tired but determined bodies. Fruit of the Loom women, Suzy Peters, Jen- nifer Stern, Jennifer Herd, Wendy Rogers, and Patricia Lucas show off their second place prize. Matt Suris is surrounded by all his friends at the dance marathon held for him. Mark Ligda and his “newlywed,” Jenny Mirich, anticipate a blissful future at the masquerade sock hop. Deanna Magura, Tom King, and Yvette Logue put a little gusto into their dancing at the dance marathon. Student Life — 27

■l» ; Laura Chevigny prepares to destroy her op- ponents in dodgeball. Casualties of a dodgeball game cheer on their team. Let the Good Times Roll Rec Nights Give Students a Break from Schoolwork And a Time to Put Energy and Skills into Action Rec nights at Andrean provide an invigorating escape from the pressures of school. Games like volleyball, dodgeball, wallball, and basketball help students release pent- up energy and show off athletic skills. For those who lack strength, rec nights provide a meeting place for socializing. Occasionally, students display Michael Jackson skills through break dancing. Whether slam dunk- ing, moon walking, kicking, running, or screaming, rec nights are the only place where sweat is chic. Trish Marsalek and Karen Lavendusky check the time schedule for girls’ wallball consolation game. Frantic freshmen fight for the spike. £ |V- mm S0 26 — Student Life
