Dances Relieve Study Tensions Barb Shunk demonstrates a dance step that seems to perplex Kenny Provost. AN IMPROMPTU STEP— during the Football Farewell informal. Throughout the school year, the St. Joseph ' s calendar was dotted with informal dances. Swinging to the latest pop music, students mingled with casual acquaintances and good friends, and took the edge off the week ' s ten- sions. The responsibility of making an informal dance successful accompanied the enjoyment of the affair. In keeping with the tradition, the Sen- ior Class set the social ball rolling by sponsoring the first dance of the year. The juniors followed with their presentation of An Autumn Night in which lighted pumpkins on a straw-strewn stage set the scene. Saluting a splendid football season, the soph- omores arranged the Football Farewell. The first yearmen held their Playland Park skating party in October as a substitute for a dance. Along with class-sponsored activities, dances were given by clubs and organizations such as the Mission Club, N.H.S., and the HI-WAY. Informal dances also have a pocket bene- fit. Financial needs of the various organizations are met at least in part by dance profits. Aside from the idealistic advantages of these activities such as strengthening of social char- acter and responsibility, informal dances hove a simple characteristic which appeals to the whole student body: St. Joe students hove fun at dances. 12
