The Beat Goes Un, MU1-1s Style After the game and special occasion dances help to break the monotony of school. Whether the team wins ,or loses, students eventually find themselves absorb- ed in the ever-present beat, helping them to forget their disappointment of celebrate their victory. Parent and teacher chaperones, along with a local policeman insure the ex- clusion of any troublemaker. Groups of students either boog-a-lou to- gether or find it more romantic to dance a- long the edge of the crowd, and there are always those who like to stand on the side- lines and watch. Big name local bands, like The Stop and The Gentlemen Wild, pour their music into the gym, or the music is provided in live stereo with many high powered speakers to make the sound as loud and natural as possible. The Homecoming, Spring, and May Day dances, all sock hops, are held in the ex-, pensive new gym, transformed by elaborate decorations. Fewer dances are held because of an odd basketball schedule, with few home games on Friday nights, however, those dances held are well attended and a large success. 16 my w 'Q -wr 'qw' Kris Lais and Butch Hogland are chosen Miss and Mr. Spring for their bright springy clothes
