Throughout the school year there are many dances. Discos seemed to be the “in thing” with all the lines, dances, and soul train lines. The major disco was the Dance Marathon sponsored by the Gladettes. The dance lasted 6 hours with a short intermission for the dance contest, at which the winners were John Vrehas and Sheral Peterman. Another dance that’s very popular is the Yearbook Sign- ing Dance. It’s the last time everyone gets together before school lets out.

Should We Gong Them Or Applaud Them? 1 [ J v The really crazy people came out for Gavit’s version of the Gong Show. The seats were full as Chuck Barris (Steve Skorupa) got the au- dience ready for a lot of fun. There was a wide range of interest, from a rock band to a recitation of the poem, “The Raven.” As the night came to a close, it was time to an- nounce the winners. The winners were John Vrehas and Barbie Cave for their disco dance routine. This night proved to be a success as there were lots of laughs and some proven talent.
