—D VanNe Jerveen Right Up to the End It was the same, yet not the same. As the school year came to a close, the seniors anticipated their prom and graduation. And that was the differ- ence—it was theirs. School work may have slacked off, but it was worth it as the time for prom arrived. Held at St. Demetrios Hall, the coupled enjoyed a catered din- ner and dancing afterwards, with music by the Tasbey Brothers. Close to midnight, they began to filter out, return home, and change into jungle at- tire for after prom. Those who attended saw a few Tarzans and lanes among their classmates. The event that had been hovering in the backs of all senior's minds since September—gradu- ation—was only two weeks later. For the third year in a row, rainy weather caused the ceremonies to be held indoors. Although it may have dampened the ceremony, the rain didn't dampen the spirits of the new alum- ni, as they began the summer of a new life. Student Life A Flashy Fad From tacky to tinny, the demand for metallic cloth- ing was mobbed the stores surrounding Bay. Beginning in the summer, designers cranked out gold- threaded jackets, hats and evening wear. Before long, the department stores were filled with everything from accessories to complete out- fits. These items didn't stay in the stores long either, as the demand for gold, cop- per, silver, and pewter fash- ions continued to run into the fall. Soon whole metallic outfits were being worn, right down to the shoes. Girls at Bay High caught right on, donning metallic socks and shoes to set off their otherwise dull fall wardrobes. Probably the most common metallic ac- cessory was handbags. Cop- per and gold purses popped up everywhere, adding zest to sweaters and skirts. Belts and pins were also popular, not to mention glittery socks. Every department store created a new section just to accomodate the new fashion craze. It seemed that this craze would never lose its glitter and shine.

Hard Corps Instead of joining the French Foreign Legion, six Bay High students joined The Argentine Cowboys, The Caballaros. The Cabs provided hard corps ad- dicts with an opportunity to march year round. Dave Beck, Lee Bowinkle- man, Vince Caruso, Jeanne Joseph, Marilyn Moore, and Brian Rummery all took ad- vantage of the corps' sum- mer tours and competitions. In their nine-week season, the Caballaros performed twenty shows at nine differ- ent locations. After that last thirteen-day tour, said Dave Beck, we all were ei- ther much closer, or at each other's throats. From January to March, Friends, not a Dime a Dozen It was a lemon all right! And it wasn't the latest model off the Detroit lines, either. Ms. Carol Bush's Group Dynamics class adopted a lemon for three days. Senior Colleen Ed- wards explained, “We had to carry it everywhere we we went for those three days. Everyone had to get to know their own lemon so that they could pick it out TOWARD THE END ot fifth period lunch, senior Jess Monago stops by the College ot Wooster table lor some Information. An aver age of three universities visit Bay High weekly. in a crowd. Everyone paid 20$ for a lemon, a small price to pay for a best friend. Students then took their new-found friends to classes, concerts, and even to work. Most lemons were given names which suited their appearance. The purpose of the project was to illustrate the fact that people, like lemons, tend to look alike, and one must get to know them before one decides whether or not they like them or not. As the old saying goes, You can't judge a lemon by its peel. the color guard competed on weekends. The Brass Choir and percussion en- semble were active straight through the off-season also. Lee Bowinkleman, who was a member of the flag and rifle corps, stated, There never really is an 'off season'. At one time or another, at least one part of the band is performing. So, for those who enjoyed the active life of a corps , Caballaros was there year round. NOT ABLE TO WORK without her lemon Hewle near. Gall Galdun writes out a pass for Shawn Mamasls.

Getting Mailed Nothing to do on a Saturday? Why not do what every other student at Bay High did at least once a month—go shopping? Of course, the most popular spot to shop was Great Northern Mall. The buses which traveled back and forth every hour made it accessible to underclassmen. Be- cause it is a mall, it seemed to have ev- erything—including crowds of shoppers. Another spot that seemed to grow in popularity was Westgate Mall. The ren- ovations enlargened and redecorated the area, making it a more pleasant place to shop. It became apparent that the best place to go to find just what you wanted was to go to one of the malls. BEFORE LINING UP to proceed into the west gym.
