Dances Take A New Twist In efforts to bring more excite- ment, higher profits and in- creased attendance into the dances, a new idea brought the Student Councils of both La Salle and Alverno together working for a common suc- cess. This goal required innova- tive planning, hard work, coo-' peration and active participa- tion by many students. ln order to raise Funds to fi- nance the Troubadour, the first dance of the year was sponsored by the yearbook staff. The band Dealer wel- comed students back to school the evening of Septem- ber 49, 4980. Friends, old and new, danced and talked, bringing the exciting news ofa short vacation onto the ter- race and into the enchant- ment of the night. The annual Sadie Hawkins Dance held on Saturday, No- vember 22, 'iwas one of the highlights of the year com- mented one student. The Stu- dent Council discussed many ideas to renovate the special evening. Students converted the cafeteria into a barn. Mu- rals, hay bales, a saloon and sawdust on the floor provided an authentic western atmo- sphere for the couples who had paid their 85.00 to get through the barn door. A stu- dent's personnal connections with members of the band Tryx arranged to have them play for the occasion, as cou- ples danced the night away from 8-'li p.m. Tricia Van Koetsveld who had attended the annual dance for the sec- ond year in a row commented, lt was terrific, the band was good, and everything was better than the previous year. For 57.00, a professional photographer captured last- ing memories of the couples who dressed in casual western attire. Peggy Kinney, ASB So- cial Chairperson, was really ex- dance. The Sadie Hawkins turned out great, everyone seemed to have a really fun time. Originally offered by La Salle only, the Snow Ball was co- sponsored by both La Salle and Alverno for the first time. This new action enabled the girls to ask their own friends to the semi-formal if they didn't have friends at La Salle. The stu- dents went all out selling tick- ets at 88.00 a bid, rented 25 round tables, purchased a Christmas tree and decorated St. Rita's Hall the day of the dance, Friday, December 49, after noon dismissal. As to be expected, students enjoyed themselves at the dances, however, Anne Howells, who attended both the Snow Ball and the Sadie Hawkins, preferred the latter for its rustic, fun-loving, good ol' memories.
