I ' ve gone to the Morp all four years and I think this one was the best so far, said co-chairman Mike Miller. This year ' s Morp had one of the biggest turnouts that Snider has ever had. The Morp, the opposite of the prom, has become a tradition here at Snider. The girl asks the guy out and they usually go to din- ner at the cheapest place around. Some favorite dinner places are K- Mart ' s cafeteria, McDo- nald ' s or maybe even a truck stop. The couples wear matching outfits, usually a t-shirt or a sweatsuit outfit. This year ' s decorations brought out the theme Go Hawaiian . Palm trees were positioned on either side of the band Unique Lighting and Sound . Matted grass, bamboo poles, fish nets and surf boards were just a few of the island adorn- ments that were used. Co- chairman Clint Price also took care of making sure that the background for the pictures looked as real as a Hawaiian beach. The dance is held every year in the Commons. An- other special touch was the leis that were given to each person at the en- trance. A new tradition that will be added is the sale of individual tickets. 1988 Morp Go Hawaiian With Class Flower leis given to everyone at the door boosts Hawaiian theme for a unigue evening of backwards fun and frolic Morp tradition offers variety of fun o Fred Ibarra: The decorations were better than in previous years. I also liked the way the band played all types of music. It ended my senior year on a great note! Irence Vlaskamp: I thought it was really fun. Maybe it should have been a little later in the year so that more people could have worn shorts. John Drummer: I enjoyed the Morp a lot this year. I had a great time, especially when my date took me to K-Mart for din- ner !•• Morp 29

Jennifer Eikenberry and Kristyn Cox lounged around the beaches at Ft. Myers, Florida trying to get a good tan to show off back home. Monica Chhabra, Mike Kruse, Alli- son Beaty, Bobbie Simpson, Mike Gerve, Amy Rising, David Dunder- man, and Brian Lieb are in Paris! This spectacular scene in Florida was a dream fulfilled for some lucky panthers who were fortunate enough to escape winter ' s blast. What a way to forget school! Laura Miller- The Ba- hamas was a dream come true. Tropical cli- mate, and crystal blue water made you want to stay forever. Amy Rising- ' Trance was great! I ' m really glad I went, a great experience. When we landed I was on the verge of tears. Michelle Guthrie- Had a great time, relaxing and enjoying the Caribbean and the weather in Can- cun was the best part. Went windsurfing and sailing and also saw a lot of Spanish culture. ' ' Juniors Greg Brubaker, Steve Pratt, John Levy, Charlie Ruble, and Mike Ross, went skiing in Colo- rado. Some suntan, guys! Nice try. 30 Spring Break —
