f t was shakey shakey time when the Northeast student body had a dance. After ballgames, holidays, special occasions, etc. an average of 200 or more students packed into the cafeteria. Everyone danced and sang, as they listened to the band play its funky music, or to the records. Most dance enthusiasts had their own reasons for cuttin the ole rug. Senior Al Willard said he liked to go to the dances because of the enjoyment. Everyone is in a good mood, having a good time, he said. Dances were scheduled weekly during football season and were open to all Northeast students. However they tapered off as the year pro- gressed. Iunior Rick Graham suggest- ed that one should be held at least every other week of the entire year. Iunior Vickie Spinelli suggested that dances be open to the public. Students dance to the music L I think that people from other schools should be able to come, she said. Sophomore Eddie Vestal said he was down on some people who came to the dances and did not dance. The Bump was a favorite dance of many. Other popular ones included the Hustle, the Hesitation, and the Robot. Getting a partner was sometimes a problem, and Senior Scott Mize solved the problem by dancing with a broom. By dancing with a broom you amuse the guys, and you ask them if they want to try it out. he said. I always end up dancing with their date the rest of the night. Dancing was popular, and with plenty of music, lots of energy, and a little bit of imagination it was a favorite Northeast past time.
