New York style donce hits Dcillos Disco hit the campus when Saturday Night Fever opened at the Dallas theatres. New York style dancing became a familiar sight at post-game dances. Sounds ofthe Bee Gees, Commodores and Aerosmith could be heard watting over the pond on special Friday nights. The sub-school student coun- cils sponsored most of the dances. Student attendance grew each week as more and more students began to use their Friday nights to dance. One of, the most well received dances was the Sadie Hawkins dance, sponsored by the Student Senate. Preparation began the week prior to the dance. Girls made a tag forthe guy they had asked or baked him a pie. A Lil' Abner-Daisy Mae dress contest was held the day prior to the dance. A table was set up at the dance with a Justice of the Peace. A couple could get mar- ried but they automatically got divorced at twelve midnight, the bewitching hour. The junior sponsored dance took place after May Day. lt was the last dance on campus for stu- dents. 28 f Student Life A1 U Senior Kathy Whitaker and her date Kelly Nutt slow dance as the pace of the music changes. 23 Tipping his hat, senior Vance Castator greets the ladies at an after game dance. 33 Senior David Haverfield and junior Donna McCrory boogie at the high school dance. 45 Drama students Kriz Kephart, Tim Greer, Jean Speck, Cindy Hartman and Doug Dunlap celebrate Sadie Hawkins Day. 59 Senior Max Dukes and Stephanie Shank dance to the music of the Sound System at the Friday night dance. 61 Associate Principal Sherman Millen- der joins Assistant Principal Archie McAfee to set up props for the Sadie Hawkins Dance.
