Dances by Connie Loomis Punkers over take dance floor Did you ever have one of those nights when you just couldn't sit . still. Maybe your feet just itched to be on the floor and started doing some strange little steps to a song on the radio. Well we had just the dance for you; whether it was Valentine's Day, the prom, homecoming, Sadie Hawkins, or after a Friday night game. Our hometown D.J. Cal Cal- ison, provided most of the students' dancing delight. He pleased everybody's taste from the fast beat of Loverboy to the slow rhythm of Air Supply. Whatever the request he played them all. For those who preferred to just sit back and watch, or who just needed a break from the music to rest their feet, there was plenty of room for everybody in the bleachers. From that vantage point, one could observe the many at- tempts students made to be different. Everything from punk glasses, gang t-shirts AS D.J. Cal Callison spins the records these Jr. High students turn the high school lobby into a disco tech. and unusual hats found its way to the dance floor. One thing that was disap- pointing to everybody was the decision to not have any more dances. The teachers stated that they would not chaperone any more dances because of fighting. For those who went there to dance and have fun it was a big let-down. Gangs were popular out on the floor. Whether they were dancing to a fast song or scattered all over dancing to a slower paced song they could be seen. Anyone that wanted to dance with the gangs was welcomed. THE SKOAL SISTERS gang adds Kevin Bush to their group—at leastuntil the end of the song.
