Formal dances important for high school life Dances are important events to attend in high school, and are long remembered by everyone. The 12B, a formal dance, was especially important to juniors and seniors. The 12B was held at the Hyper- ion Golf and Country Club. On the morning of January 6, 58 senior girl hostesses decorated the danc- ing room, with anticipation for the evening. Each hostess purchased two tickets. One ticket was for herself and the other ticket was for a j unior or senior couple who wished to attend. The hostesses were also in charge of furnishing refreshments, designing the backdrop for photo- graphs, and ordering wine goblets. A Time for Us was the chosen theme, and the backdrop, which showed two roses, was quite appropriate. Music was provided by The Last Shades of Dawn. Mr. and Mrs. Copple and 10 volunteer adults chaperoned the dance. R A 12B is a special time for senior as well as for junior couples. It is a time for long prepara- tion: buying a dress, renting a tux, making a reservation at a restaurant, planning a party for after the dance, and finally, get- ting ready to go to the dance. In the back- ground are seniors Vanessa Stephens and Craig Tideback, and in the foreground are juniors Gina Treanor and Rod Heather- shaw. No matter what type of pace the band plays, whether it be slow, disco, or mellow, couples seem to enjoy dancing to all paces. Here, senior Sally Strong and date, Don Hirsock and senior Larry Pratt participate in a fast dance. Being a 12B hostess deserves a lot of rewards. Here, senior Cindy Clark and date Bruce Miller receive their wine goblets. 24 STUDENT LIFE
