Lengthy breaks, Some of the more than 480 persons who attended the January 15th Winter Formal complained that the band KeeperH was only adequate, and that they took too many breaks and that those breaks were far too long. During those breaks recorded music was played to entertain the students. Others complained that the Embassy Room's dance floor was too small to accommodate the 240 couples. They also claimed that the room was too small and too hot. This caused many couples to move out onto the balcony to get some fresh air. This was one of the best attended dances in recent history and 1. Senior Lisa Reza, a dance team member and a veteran of sore feet, opted for a more comfortable style. She and her date. Dan Anguiano, attended the Student Council sponsored Winter Formal. 2. Michelle Hemmer gets her point across to Duane Kolafa as Hemmer's date Todd Burt looks mystified by the proceedings.

Most of the couples who attended the dance had gone to dinner at any number of area restaurants prior to the dance, but still some complained about the lack of cake that is normally pro- vided by the Student Council. The Council did, however, provide the fruit punch. The Council also provided centerpieces made of carnations for the tables set around the dance floor. Other decorations were rather sparse, a sign stating that the theme Precious Dreams was posted on one wall. ,wwf- H
