Tampering With Tradition ln contrast to previous years, Toto, coordinated by Girls' Honor Society, underwent several transformations. Tampering with tradition, long dresses and tuxedos gave way to a more informal look while couples danced not to the usual band, but to a disc jockey. We hope to make the informal look a custom, revealed Girls' Honor President Chris Silvey. The change in attire was really a necessity because ofthe dance's late date. Few had money right before spring vacation. The reason for a DJ was simply for a more successful dance. You can't always rely on bands. Adorning the Toto scene to coincide with the theme A Carribean Cruise, the gym was gar- nished with vivid parrots, palm trees, and other details for an island image.

Celebration Of International Proportions Based on the theme All around the World, Mardi Gras, Fasching, Carnaval was certainly an event for the world to see. The festivities, held on February 23, the Tuesday before the first day of Lent, is more commonly referred to as Fat Tuesday. Many exciting activities such as a pinata break, a limbo contest, and the crowning of a king and queen added action to the evening. The limbo contest was won by Jill Finch who stooped to an unbelievable 20 inches. The coronation winners were Oueen Anjanette Threlkeld and King Mike Fors. Perhaps, though, the highlight of the party was the dance. The many couples danced to the music of a disc jockey, which was a first for Mardi Gras. The only requirement, besides having fun, was that each participant had to dress up in cos- tume. This by itself could have made the whole evening. Many clever ideas were displayed, such as Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble, portrayed by Troy Larson and Mike Ogle, and Doctor Melonhead and his assistant Beaker under performance of Mike Schroder and Dan Uhm. The costume that won the costume contest was done by James McCool who debuted as Don Quix- ote. Not too oddly enough, since Mardi Gras is held only every other year, the one comment that kept being repeated throughout the evening and the days that followed was, l wish they had it every year.
