ancing to the Beat At times, school could become very hectic. Students enjoyed taking time off from their busy schedule for dances. Sockhops were a good way to spend Friday nights after home football games. People met with friends, brought a date to the dance, or maybe made new friends. Danny Hagler, the disc jockey, made the dances more exciting with the latest tunes in pop, soul, and even country. He also provided a stereo with large speakers, and fabulous lights. Everyone participated in the dancing. Some of the favorite songs were by artists such as Prince, Flatt, and Night Ranger. LOOKING ON Chris Earl, Jerry Steele, and others waited on the bleachers for the music to change so they could break-dance. DANCE THE NIGHT AWAY Senior Chris Weide and freshman Michelle Hinson boogie down to the song Round and Round by Ratt. A big attraction at the sockhops this year was break dancing. People would gather in a circle as a song like Jam On It came on. Then talented students would demonstrate the art of dancing by poppin' and knockin' to the music. When the dance was over, going home was always disappointing. But everyone knew there were still more sockhops and good times to come. SWAYING T0 THE MUSIC Juniors Tracy Coble and Chris Lawing take to the gym floor for some slow stepping to the song Purple Rain by Prince. 32 'Sockhops
