It was 1965. I was taking my girlfriend, Carol Sue, to the dance after the big football game against Clay Center. I wore a white sport coat and a pink carnation, and thought I looked pretty slick. The dance was in the old school gym, because they didn't want us fouling up the floor in the newer gym. One of the scores of local garage bands was playing at the hop. This one was Maureen and the Marksmen, led by Maureen, who fronted the band with a saxophone, and could do the splits while she played. Their theme song was "Land of a Thousand Dances." They did a creditable job, although they were all white Catholics. My date, Carol Sue, looked like a party doll. She had hairsprayed her beehive to death, so that when we slow danced and I held my cheek tenderly against her, it felt like I was leaning against a brick wall. Carol Sue was dressed pretty modestly, a sweater over her white blouse with a pixie collar of chantilly lace. I belonged to the nerd crowd, and my friend Don Lambert laughingly suggested that we request the band to play The Ballad of Davy Crockett. I talked him out of it. At the end of the evening, I took Carol Sue home, receiving a chaste, dry kiss at the front door. "Call me," she said. "That'll be the day," I thought.
