Dances ease money shortages When clubs and classes started to feel the money pinch, a dance was usually scheduled to alleviate that shortage. Dances, like other activities, had to first get Student Council’s permission. Then teachers offered their time to chaperone, while parents were pressured into giving up their free time to put up with the so-called “music” for a few hours. The Class of ’81 held the first social mixer, where incoming freshmen and new students had an opportunity to get acquainted with the upperclassmen. This dance was held in the student center with Q-2 providing the music. Homecoming, which was sponsored by Student Council, was held Oct. 6 from 9 to 12 in the student center. “Ride Like the Wind” was the theme and Susan Elliot provided the music. On Nov. 7 the National Honor Society sponsored a dance in the student center. Student deejays provided the music for this dance. Bringing 1980 to a close was the traditional semi-formal Christmas Morp dance, which was held in the student center on Dec. 19. Morp is prom spelled backwards and was much like a Sadie Hawkins dance. Morp was also sponsored by Student Council. Both a king and a queen were MORP ROYALTY. After receiving the royal titles of king and queen. Kerwyn Mabie and Mollie Ebel share a dance to the Morp theme. 20 Dances chosen for the dance. Kerwyn Mabie and Mollie Ebel reigned as royalty. Proving that disco is on the way out, the sophomore class held a cowboy dance on March 31. A costume dance was held on April 10 by the French and Spanish clubs. Student deejays once again provided the music at these dances. Bringing the school year to a close was the traditional prom, which was held at the Crags Lodge. This dance was sponsored by the junior class. The theme for prom was “We May Never Pass This Way Again.”
