couples enjoy a “Sleighride to the Stars’’ Sleighride to the Stars was conducted by the Student Council as their 1967 annual yuletide dance last year. Many couples at- tended the affair, hearing the modern music of the Wolcott High School Stage Band. This semi-formal occasion was the first of its kind at the new Pioneer. Following the new school policy the council used the cafeteria as the site of the dance, removing the threat of a marred gym floor. Mr. and Mrs. Parker watch the new dances with awe. Pam Zagajewski and Mike Kahl arrive ready for an evening of fun and dancing.
