 Moonlight and Roses enchant Sunshiners The annual Sweetheart's Ball, sponsored by the Sunshine Society, was held February 3 in the cafeteria. Couples danced in a wall- enclosed rose garden setting of Moonlight and Roses” under a midnight blue sky stud- ded with silver stars. The center of the dance floor was accented with a wishing well draped with rose garlands of red roses. The two entrances were framed with arbors decorated with greenery and red roses. Sunshiners, their escorts, and the chap- erones were seated in the hallway, with re- freshment tables at either end. The dance music was furnished by the Dukes from Logansport. Judy and Lon boogaloo to the music of the Dukes . MaryNies ushers couples into the ample dining hall outside the dancing area. Have you ever gotten the feeling that you're interrupting something important? Is this the way Lawrence Welk would do it?

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.
