Dance lovers chat and dance with their 'friends at a t ical the eason's Dances ! To every high school graduate, the word dance recalls memories of unforgettable evenings of fun meeting new friends and getting better acquainted with them. Clad in levis and plaid shirts, the seniors and juniors enjoyed a night of relaxation and enter- tainment as they square-danced at the Senior and junior mixers. Sophomores danced to the theme of Blue Mirage at the annual sophomore class party. Rec parties and after-game parties provided meeting places for the fun-loving Eastites. Most special of all were the beautifully decorated formal dances, transforming the gym into far away places. The emotions that went before, during, and after each of these parties will cause the experience to live forever in the memories of East's students.
