Pictures were available and were taken by Wes Siebe. Refreshments con- sisted of cookies and punch. Any couple who wanted to get married could do so by paying a visit to the traditional Marryin' Sam, who was present to join couples in phony ma- trimony. Upon getting married, the bride received a flower, a ring, and an unofficial marriage certificate. Lisa Chappell, '84 said, The dance was fun and I enjoyed getting married. Karl Anderson performed a truly unique ceremony as Marryin' Sam. Iay Neyens '83 said, I felt the dance was very unorganized and un- planned. Overall it was a good time, but it could have been better if more people would have gotten involved and danced. Diane Leitner '83 com- mented, It seemed to me that no one liked the band. The only songs people danced to were slow ones, otherwise they just sat in the back of the commons. No one seemed to get involved at all, there were only about three people dressed up at the dance.
