Sadie-goers boogie to ‘Last Smiles of Jenny Price and her date Robert Buss show the fun and excite- ment they are about to have. by Daniels Vukosavljevic Cornstalks, pum- pkins, xxx jugs and hay? No! you were not in a barn, but you were at the Sadies. Colors of brown, orange and yellow hung over gals and their farmers in the student center, as scarecrows and jack-o-lanterns glared with delight. Student Council car- ried on their galant tradi- tion of putting on the an- nual hitchin' dance. Many hours of dedica- tion went into the dance to make it a success.” said John McKay. Last Safari, a band from Bloomington, IN, was discovered by Todd Pfeffer to make the Sadies a success and get the students feet to move. “I wasn’t a day too soon on getting Last Safari, I had to get them five weeks in advance. They were in such a big demand We were just plain lucky! The fear of going into debt for the cost of the band, $600, grew when only 20 tickets were sold. But as October 16 neared, girls were getting up the nerve to ask that special guy if she could have the honor of having him as her date. Ticket sales then began to soar as 135 tickets were presold, and profit began to show. Even after students found their feet tiring and stomachs filling, there was still something to do. Lads’ and Lassies' marched up to Marryin Sam (Jim McNeely), declared their love for each other, and asked the judge to Hitch them. Soon streamers were taken down, tables fold- ed up. and marriage cer- tificates put away, but memories of the dance will always dance away (in bare feet of course) in students' minds.
