Q W ights began to burn at 8 p.m. on December 14 in the large gym to signify that the annual Christmas Dance had started. The lights illuminated the gym While , approximately 400 students and faculty members danced .- the night away until 11 p.m. when the crowd began to depart for home. Students bopped and popped to the music provided by local D.J.'s. SOme of the requests that the D.J.'s received , l i 4, , 3 were for groups such as Prince, Frankie Goes to Holly- i Q wood, Madonna, Lionel Richie, and Pat Benatar. Many peo- ' ',,s Q ple expressed happiness at having the D..l.'s play the songs ' f ,,i , that were most requested. ' . f f iii' One common site around the dance floor was the appearance of socks. socks were required while shoes were prohibited because of tire recent damage to the gym fIOOr caused by shoes worn at the Coronation Ball. socks included colors such as fluorescent green, fluorescent orange, black, and white. Another area of great diversity was in the outfits that were worn. some joined in the Christmas spirit by wear- ing red and white Santa CIaus hats and tinsel as bracelets, necklaces, and belts. Other chose to show up at the dance wearing green plastic garbage bags, or others came with Mickey Mouse sweatshirts worn with sweat- pants. other outfits that were seen were Army uniforms. santa made a special appearance at the dance thereby adding further to the Christmas spirit that students already showed. santa delivered candy canes to the crowd throughout the night with rosy cheeks, a cherry red nose and a cheery smile. The dance was a blast. The D..l. even got into the spirit and started dancing with us. It really got me into the Christmas spirit. chattered Kristin Keller. M iii.
