Steppin lt's that time of week again - yes, it's time for the Friday night victory or spirit dance, whichever the case may be. Time for boogying, two- stepping, punk-rocking, slowdancing, or just doing your own thing out on the dance floor. Many students attend the dances after football games either to celebrate a victory or to boost their spirit after a loss. Laurie Robinson, junior, said, I go to dances mainly just to talk and socialize with my friends, it's something to do on Friday nights. Other reasons for going to dances are for guys to see that special girl and vice-versa. A problem may arise if that girl or guy goes to a different school. Many students were against the new rule that students could only get into dances with a North Garland ID 7 out friday night card. Junior Jim Louis said about the rule, lt's not fairg my girlfriend goes to a different school, so I can't ever bring her to our dances: I always go to her dances at Berkner. This year I didn't even bother to get an ID card. Principals Mr. Gary Reeves and Mr. Frank Fleed, however, gave the reasons the ID rule was put into effect. Mr. Reeves said, We had been having several problems and fights with students from other schools who had been drinking. We trust our students, it's the other school's students who cause the problems. The second dance of the year which was sponsored by publications was the first dance where the ID rule was put into effect. Although the new rule did cut down on attendance, sponsoring dances is still a good COAXING DEBBIE BOIS to dance with him is sophomore Jeff Cavender, Student Life T0 THE BEAT of the music jumps Manuel Salinas, sophomore. money-making project, said Dr. Drue Porter, publications sponsor, Many classes and organizations do sponsor dances because, even with the cost of hiring a DJ, paying the custodian, and hiring two security guards, organizations still make enough money to make sponsoring a dance well worth the effort. Senior Class secretary Teri Fleed said, We really made a lot of money having our dance after the powder-puff game, but we did encounter one problem. Our DJ was late, so a lot of people left. Ms. Aston could have killed him when he did arrive. Although a few problems may be encountered while having dances, most people will agree that dances are fun to sponsor and certainly fun to attend. MISTI HILL AND CURT MADDUX slow dance at one of the many Friday night dances.
