Palm trees lined the walls to set the tone for the tropical setting of the Girls' Club Dance. We chose the setting for 'Almost Paradise' because it was'a popular song at that time, stated Laura Gyllstrom, Girls' Club president. Cne of the highlights of the evening was the garter dance. Pink and white garters were given to each girl at the door before entering the dance. 24 Girls Club Dance -1-.J 'Q 'Qin scenery creates paradise adds twist to turnabout night The girls put the garters on their legs and their dates took them off to the music. The girls in the club thought that it would be a nice favor, stated Mrs. Edythe Strater, Girls' Club sponsor. - Although the dance was over in a few short hours, months of hard work, long afternoons after school, and weekends that were spent cre- ating the effect didn't go un- noticed. The decorations were really sharp. I could hard- ly recognize the gym, stated Dave Pijarowski, senior. As some students danced to the melody of Showbiz, others took a break and en- joyed the hot hors d'oeuvres that were served for the first time. l think it was a great ideag it was a nice change from the cookies, stated Debbie Kane, senior. The highpoint of the evening came when Eric Stahr was crowned King. Other members of the court were Lonnel Mackey, senior, Tim Zacka- vec, sophomore, Randolph Mitchell, junior, and Sherman Adams, freshman. Not every student could af- ford a trip to the Hawaiian is- lands, but for 3310 a ticket Al- most Paradise was an inex- pensive escape from the gloomy March weather and into a world of tropical para- dise. Aloha!
