Cathy Fagen and Roger Hruskovich enjoy soft music and a slow dance at Turnabout. A quiet moment for conver- sation rounds out an evening of dancing for Denise Trapp and her escort. Turnabout Once a year Andrean’s female population focuses its attention on finding a date for the Turnabout dance. The theme of the February dance, which was organized by Kathy Pearce and Mary Ann Wolfe, was “Love will turn you around.” Students decorated the gym with hearts, streamers, and a silver tinsel carousel, and the music of Pawnz provid- ed a romantic backdrop for couples enjoying an evening of dancing. Helen O’Connell and Paula Pearce offer guests punch, cookies, and friendly smiles. Student Life — 17

Dueling and Dancing For years, sock hops and rec nights have been a time for An- drean students to get together and enjoy themselves, a time to get out of the house, make new Friends and meet old acquaint- ances. At rec nights, classmates sharpen athletic skills and challenge each other to friendly contests of agility and coordina- tion. Rec nights offer many Student Life — 19 sports for participation, includ- ing basketball, volleyball, ping- pong, dodgeball, and wallball. Two special sock hops were held this year, the Homecoming sock hop and a masquerade sock hop in November. The Homecoming sock hop replaced the traditional Homecoming dance. Sock hops and rec nights are sponsored by the Student Council.
