This year the best way to say 'gHappy Valentine's Dayi' to your sweetheart was to take her to the Blue and White Dance held February 14. The dance, which terminated Courtesy Clean-up Week, was a huge success, according to Melody Inucci, commissioner of social activities. Following the Bloom-Kankakee game, although we were not victorious, the students, with elated spirits, twisted, bobbed, and waltzed to the music of the 6Beatle' Bill Reichert Band. Reigning over the dance were Marcella Ranieri and David Brauer, both seniors. The king and queen were crowned at a Courtesy Clean-up assembly held on the preceding Thursday. The court consisted of Kathryn Householder, Sue Halverson, Linda Iaofollo, Bruce Hodges, Pat Bekeza, and Thomas Parisi.
