Dancing on the Moon seemed great. Harvest Moon hines ver Tech Penny and Steve reigned over the Harvest Moon. The night of November 20 was a night to remember. The occasion was the launching of many Techites on a trip to the moon, the Harvest Moon Ball, that is. Sponsored by the SAO Board and the Service Club, the starry-eyed couples arrived on schedule at eight o'clock to dance away the evening at Tech's fall formal. A recording of 4'Everyone's Gone to the lVloon,', the theme of the dance and a current hit record, was played in the background. Techis own Dance Band provided the live music. The dance was held in the new cafeteria which was appropriately decorated for the occasion. Symbols of autumn abounded as Homer, a huge ragged scarecrow, and pumpkins and Indian corn adorned the room. Completing the decorations was an eight-foot oilcloth earth, brightly illuminated by the light of Tech's umoonf' Chris Petree, Penny Pickett, Jill Schmidt, Betty Watts, and Iris Williams vied for the title of queen. Gazing hopefully at the king's crown were Mike Ens- minger, Larry lVledcalfe, Bod lVlorgan, Steve Sanders, and Bill Thompson. Penny and Steve were crowned queen and king. For entertainment, Dave Wise supplied a humorous monologue, the Girls Ensemble sang several songs, and Carol Oakley presented several numbers on her ac- cordion. Cider and doughtnuts refreshed the foot- weary dancers. Soon, the inevitable hour of eleven arrived, and the lunar visitors returned to earth, knowing that this trip, the Harvest lVloon Ball, was the highlight of the fall social season.
