This paved the way for numerous twisteroos and stomps, the greatest and most lavish of which was the Sweetheart Ball, presented through the combined talent and ef-forts of Otyokwa and Excelsior. Needless to say, this was among the most successful dances of the year. The cafeteria was miraculously transformed into a sparkling ballroom, much to the surprise of skeptics who said, "It couldn't be done." The Christmas Dinner Dance was held with Excelsior at the Oakridge Country Club before the official inauguration of the Twist. Otyokwa also sponsored "Sadie Hawkins' Day." Even though the Squaws had an extra amount of fun this year, Otyokwa still maintained a top grade point, and many of her members held high positions in the studentbody. True, O.T. did not take first place in everything (last year was her year for firsts), but this year will be remembered as one of the best for O.T.
