Thespians On the night of Nov ' ember 17, 1961, the Junior Class presented “Jnst Ducky,” a three act com- edy. This presentation was en- thusiastically received by all who saw it. The plot concerned the Maxwell family: John Max- well, who thought he bossed the household; Janet Maxwell, John’s wife, who thought she bossed the household; their chil- dren, Connie, Betty Lou, and Mdlber; and all their friends and associates. The play was pre- sented again for the student body on November 20. First row: Sandra Weaver, Sue Atkins, Carroll Freeman, Mary Barnes, Bar- bara Thornton, Charles Story. Stand- ing: Dianne Mayo, Clay Blackwell, Ray Alcock, Wayne Palmer, Fred Brueggeman, Glenn Metzel. J unior Play Senior Play CUBd JL 1 111 A modem dramatization entitled “Lavender and Old Lace” was pre- sented by the senior class of March 30, 1962. This play not only excited and delighted the audience, but also provided a unifying class spirit for the Seniors participating. Proceeds from this production were used to help finance the senior trip to New York. The play centered around the mysterious actions of a gracious gen- tlewoman, Miss Mary .Ainslie who “reminded one of lavender and old lace.” Throughout the three acts mystery and wonder were increased until the exciting climax revealed the truth. Seated: Gail Figger.s, Carole Henderson, Nellie Mays, Patsy Adams, Betty Lou Ful- cher. Standing: Roy Riner, Ray Mayberry, Martin Walker, Tommy Littrell, Kay Mc- Clanan. i

I I I I and Highlights. Certainly the most exclusive social event at Amherst County High School is the Junior- Senior Banquet and Prom. The Oriental theme, “Sayonara,” was carried through by decorations of pink cherry blossoms and pagodas. After eat- ing a delicious meal by candlelight in the cafe- teria, the Juniors and Seniors escorted their guests into the beautifully decorated gymnasium. As the band played, everyone was carried into a land of enchantment; indeed each musician had that mysterious “Oriental touch.” During the dance, the couples were gazing at a mural of magnificent snow-capped Mount Fuji. The lavendar crepe paper and unusual Oriental writ- ing created a mood of fascination. As the couples departed after an evening of unsurpassed en- chantment and beauty, the Japanese chimes could be heard tingling “Sayonara.” Fwisting with the “Stardusters” provided entertainment or everyone, especially for George Falls and Donna Ray Allcock and Faye Taylor admire the centerpiece which provided a beautiful addition to the Japanese theme of the prom. Woody Campbell and Toni Lanum enjoy sitting out a dance during the Junior Senior Prom with Carroll Hudson and Nancy Adams.
