Wild sounds blasted from all direc- tions, and there was a strange feeling in the air. However, the setting was not a laboratory testing zone, but rather the scene for the back- to-school dance. For the first time ever students were the D.J.s. Chris Homan 1121 and Scott Fiuoti 1121 performed in Arend's Gym on Sept. 15, bringing in approximately 700 anxious teenagers which raised S700 for Prom. The Junior Class organized the event. According to Mrs. Kathy Moore, Junior Class sponsor, the back-to- school dance set the mood for dances to come. Homan and Ruoti thought of the idea to be disc jockeys in the summer, so they set out to gain the approval of Principal Robert Malito. After a few for- malities, they proved responsible enough to go for it. A list of music selections was sub- mitted to the faculty, and soon the stu- dent D.J.'s were cranking out tunes ranging from oldies but goodies to top 40 to the theme from the Beverly Hillbil lies. To be a D.J. required preparation. lt took a lot of time, Fiuoti said. But he admitted, lt was fun to do. Meahgan Kilmartin 11 OJ commented The D.J.s did a good job for beginners They played good music. Other sophomores felt a sense of belonging after the back-to-school dance. Jeff Jones 11 OJ said the dance was a nice greeting to a new school. The stereo and back-up equipment were rented and funded by the Junior Class. The senior D.J.s volunteered for free, which helped them get the job. Many people who attended the back-to-school dance agreed with a comment from Stephanie McCracken 1117, l'l had a good time. lt was fun. - Scott Goldberg 110 I I I I Book-to-Sohoo 1A crowd shot of the Victory Dance reveals a ca- -5 The Football Team's win is enjoyed by player sual setting in Arend's Gym with students dancing Kevin Franz 1171 in a dance with Tricia Mason 1101 and shouting to their favorite tunes. lt is here that at the Victory Dance. the students meet before heading to parties. 14-Let's Dance
