Dances ease the big hassle of selling tthings' 14 to raise money Raising money can he a pain in the neck. Desperation sets in, and selling things is one of the least inviting options. This year students discovered that sponsoring dances was a better alternative. The first was a summer jam with Riff Raff , and sponsored by the juniors. Although held in the cafeteria, the evening scored as a hit with 700 rock fans. On Friday, October 5th, the juniors sponsored a dame for freshmen and sophomores only. Nightwalker supplied the vibrations, and a dance contest was held with Scott Hendren and Pinky Fraley the winners. Disco remained popular with the Den-Phil Disco supplying lighting and music for a small dance. The semi-formal Christmas dance, on December 21st, was the last big bash of the first semester. Caribou provided the vibrations. Right: Brian l'hringer and Angela Rm'key swing to the heat of the musit at the linsh-Soph. tlam'e.

Students were also being affect- t ed outside of school. Jr. Laura Steele Money! Money! Money! Every- body wants it, but nobody has enough lexcluding the oil tsompan- ies, of coursel. Money, or a lack of it, was affecting Silver Creek students in every way possible during the 1979-80 school year. As we began another year at S.C.H.S., lights were turned off everywhere. Why? To save money!! Lunch tickets, which used to cost $2.50 only last year, were now costing the student $3.50. This is commented concerning the infla- tionary prices of clothing, The rising prices of clothes is outrageous, outlandish, and ridiculous! It seems that the paycheck is shrinking and the cost of clothes is expanding. What about gas prices? Can you remember back to 1974 when a gallon of petro cost 40c? Presently, S.C. students are paying more than a dollar for the liquid gold. Stations
