Precision accounts for many of the most exciting and enjoyable dances of today. Hey! Do You Wanna Dance? Yeah man! Like dancin’s always been one of the greatest kicks of all time. Ya can tell how a guy or gal’s feelin’ just by the way she dances. Take for an example, no, the kid that’s real hung on things. Now, He ain’t gonna dance like he got no cares— lie’s gonna look gloomy or like maybe he’s about a million light years way out gettin’ away from it all. It’s Sort of what my English teacher calls an “emotional catharsis.” And, boy, when ya feel wild, can ya ever let loose! Dancin’s creative like that. Lookin’ at a group’s dancin’ steps is like readin’ their minds and findin’ out all about their lives. Whadaya say about these characters? Do I wanna dance? Man, like you just know it! The excitement of the evening is worth all the preparation that went into it. 15 Many dances at Cooper give students a chance to “cut up” and reveal their true selves.

Excitement Mounts for the Day of the Game The day of the game is a grueling test, the climax of each player’s drive toward Ins particular goal. Each athlete must wade through a day of anxiety to cap his efforts with a victory or with defeat. Only through the eyes of an active participant can the full impact of the day of the game he felt. Neither the otherwise relaxing atmosphere of friends nor the measure of pride which comes from escorting a pretty princess can dissolve the feeling of concern each player has as he waits for his crowning hour. With expectation and exertion that final hour comes . . . and goes. Jovially kidding with sonic friends, Jeff Butch walk into rhool to Atari the nervous wait. 16 He escorts a princess at the pepfett.
