Disco Duds And Dancin' Dudes “Don't Stop Till You Get Enough ' “Turn Out the Lights Sweet Darlin. “Born to Be Alive ' “Love Taught Me Who Was the Boss''—if just hearing these words makes your feet start to move, you were probably one of the many disco freaks who just couldn't wait for Friday and Saturday nights. Since the movie “Saturday Night Fe- ver'' exploded discos into the Ameri- can culture, students began moving to the disco beat and visiting the many new discos in Salt Lake. In the past many of Salt Lake's discos have been adults only, but many new teen discos have opened in the past year. These discos that cater to crowds 16. 17 and up were no smok- ing, no drinking establishments. Some of the most popular were the Broad- way. Discovery, the Front Page, and the Dancing Machine Not only did these places feature lighting, bizarre decors, and elaborate sound systems, but most were showplaces for the la- test in fashion. Disco dresses, cuffed levis with high heels, tight slacks, and silk shirts proved you really were into the disco scene. Discos were a good place to meet people to date from other high schools. Some people even traveled to Provo to see the enormous Star Palace Disco. Yes, discos were bigger than ever in 1979. Disco music dominated the top spots on the charts. Even though Salt Lake's only all-disco station KWHO-FM was bought out and switched formats, disco songs could be heard mixed in on all rock stations. Disco music is defi- nitely Stayin' Alive, especially in Salt Lake City. Utah.

Row f; Trish Young. secretary. Row 2: Curtis Smith, head senator; Toni Nelson, vice president; Todd Handley, president. First Middle School Graduates Arrive At Alta The Third week of this school year the freshman officers were elected. Once they were elected the fresh- men organized themselves and functioned efficiently with the rest of the Alta studentbody. This year's freshman president was Todd Handley. As the president, Todd represented the freshman class in student council meetings and was responsible for making sure that assignments were carried out. Todd always got the job done, but he was grouchy when he worked late. and Todd always fulfilled his responsibilities as president, but he drove us crazy with the word 'flip' , were comments made by his fellow officers. Todd stated. I hope I have made this a fun year for the fresh- man class. Toni Nelson is the freshman vice president. Toni ran for office be- cause she wanted to help the fresh- men have a fun and successful year. Todd suffered a knee injury and was unable to attend school for a number of days; but. throughout his absence Toni filled in as vice president and made sure assign- ments were carried out. To Toni everything was dude . Her fellow officers considered her energetic, a perfectionist, and she had good ideas. It can be said that Toni has successfully met the challenge of helping the freshman class have a good year. The freshman head senator was Curtis Smith. As head senator Curtis worked with the four class senators. Curtis had a knack for getting things organized. He hopes that he has helped make it a fun year for the class of '83. Trish Young wanted to have an extra fun freshman year so she got involved with the freshman elections and was elected secretary. Trish is said to have added humor, asked too many questions, and was a good worker. She enjoys life and wants to live forever. With dedi- cated and enthusiastic officers like these to lead the freshman class it is no wonder that the class of '83 had such a successful year. Freshman officers make one of many class banners. 202 Freshmen
