Jeans, tennis shoes at Morpg 'ld F 5 0's-New Wave brings many clad in 1 Adding excitement to students lives were the many dances held throughout the year. Aside from the traditional Homecoming and Prom, dances were sponsored by different clubs for various causes. On the night of November 16 a Greek or toga dance was held in the school cafeteria. The dance was sponsored by the S-Section and the money raised went toward picturing the Class of '85 ' in the halls. Students were clad in sheets of different col- ors that ranged from white to red and even a Budweiser sheet could be seen among the crowd. Dj John Bome provided the music for the dance. The music ranged from fast to slow dances and music for break-dancing was provid- ed. As the crowd formed a circle around the dance floor students showed their break-dancing talent, Midway through the dance the music stop- ped and the lights came on. It was time for the best toga contest for whoever dared to enter. The contestants were asked to line up and step out one at a time to show off their Greek apparall, They were judged by faculty and administration members. After careful consideration David Franklin, representing the senior class won the contest. February 23 was the night of the 50's-New Wave dance sponsored by S.A.D.D,fStudents Jrifg Against Drunk Drivingl. This dance was also held in the cafeteria. The 50's apparall for the girls included poodle skirts, crop pants, bobbie socks and pony-tails. For the guys there were white tee-shirts, jeans rolled up about 2 inches too high and greased back hair. The new wave dress wasn't as popular but those who chose to go with that form of dress really stood out in the crowd. This group seem- ed to pattern themselves after Madonna. A new kind of dance was added to the years festivities. On March 15 Student Legislature sponsored the MORP dance. The MORP dance was the complete opposite of Prom, with cer- tain guidelines to follow. Where prom is very formal the MORP dance was casual dress with jeans and sweat shirts. In- stead of the beautifully decorated surroundings of Prom MORP was decorated with toilet paper and newspapers covered the tables. Girls were required to ask the guys and dinner was a quick stop at a fast food place instead of the expensive candle-lit dinner at a fine restaurant. Not only did various clubs get involved in planning these activities but students had the op- portunity to participate in the dances.
