“THE FOLZ’’— OTHERWISE known as Mike Foley, gets a big kiss from Sheryl Gergory, co-captain of the Varsity Cheerleaders. THE FIFTIES PEP Rally added some excite- ment to the school day. The local hoods stand on the sidelines looking for trouble. AT THE FIFTIES dance, MHS girls turned to swirling skirts and Bobby socks to fit the mood. DIFFERENT DANCES, LIKE different clothes were all to be seen at the Fifties Dance, as all joined in the fun and a brief look into the past. In January, the $.C.A. sponsored the 50’s dance. The guys got out their Vitalis and slicked back their hair, while some of the girls got out their mother’s old poodle skirts and wore bobby socks and saddle oxfords. Paula Love and Hal Kelly were chosen as the best dressed. There was a juke box at the dance to make it seem like a typical 50’s hop. A disc jockey was on hand to play hits from the 50’s and 60’s. Several people got together and danced the bunny hop, along with some other dances that were popular during the 50’s. Ankie Chancey and Timmy White were chosen as best dancers. Everyone seemed to enjoy reliving the 50’s. 14 50’s Day
