You Should Be Dancin’! Sometimes all it takes is a steady beat, or maybe a song will stick in your mind and unconciously you'll walk to its rhythm. An almost sure fire way to get you going is a group of you and your friends movin’ to the beat among approximately 300 people at a Friday night dance. According to Webster's, a series of rhythmic and patterned body movements usually performed to music is distinguished as dancing When you |ump up and clap during the fight song or while doing your daily calisthenics to your favorite songs, believe it or not, you're dancing During the late seventies, danc- ing has become more involved and professional Couple dancing has returned from the Fred and Gin- ger days. A big contributor to this craze was the popular Dance Fever , hosted by Denny Terrio His biggest contribution other than his show was the fact that he taught John Travolta how to dance to the popular tunes in Saturday Night Fever , also a big contributor to the disco wave A glance around LHS and you could have found different forms of dancing The band at a Friday night football game, the cheerleaders, Phys. Ed classes and probably even you, a part of LHS and the school spirit, gettin' rowdy or danc- ing1 26 Student Lite'Carleen
