ggffAfflA G £M Baseball game that after- noon, SAT early the next morning, cold temperatures, and over one hundred and fifty students wanting to get excused from school. These problems put students and administration into a frenzy. Juniors and Seniors who planned on attending the prom left school at noon. The underclassmen who also planned to go rebelled. If ju- niors and seniors can get out early, why can't we? We have just as much preparing as they do, complained Tara Davies. After discussions with administration, the un- derclassmen could leave also. Originally scheduled for 4 pm, the baseball game with Bruce was moved up to 2 pm. The team members also need- ed adequate time to get ready. The rest of the student body sat outside in the cool weath- er and wind to watch the V12 game. As the 8 pm prom drew nearer, the temperatures kept dropping. Many girls franti- cally called neighbors and friends to find a stole. Todd's mom offered me a fur before we left. I really should have taken it. It was so cold at Deep Creek Lake I thought it was going to snow, said Gina Sween as she thought back. For three hours, students jammed in the warm Lane Center before venturing home to change for the After- Prom. Wild JAMS and tank tops hid underneath layers of sweats and jackets. Leis draped the necks of the danc- ers as Q-94 played music and the temperature dropped to 32 degrees. Even though many prob- lems hampered the prom and after-prom activities, noth- ing, not even cold weather, spoiled the evening. Sitting pretty After decorating all day and dancing all night, Amy Griffith relaxes at her table. Amy left school at 8:30 am to decorate and she left the Lane Center at 4:30 to get ready for the 8 pm prom.

Gimme a break Taking a break from the dancing, Doug Surgent and Shannon Ralston gather some snacks from the long ta- ble of munchies. The sophomores put much thought into what foods would be most suitable. Pretty as a picture Dressed in satin and lace, Stacie Meanyhan waits in line with her date Pat Stevens to get their picture taken. To beat the high cost of such an extravaganza, Stacie borrowed her gown from a friend. Steady step I never thought that I would get Le- roy on the dance floor. He loved it, said Wendy Leake about her boy- friend Leroy Day. Most girls spent the night dancing while their dates sat and ate. Ladies only Although dancing in formal gowns bothered some of the sophomores, Laura Grant, Krista Vought, and Shannon Ralston forgot about the hoops and crinolines to have a good time. They spent the entire evening dancing to popular music by DJ Brad Zimmerly. Sophomore Dance 11 1

Plop, plop, fizz, fizz Busy dropping aspirin in bottles, Maria Fautz helps prepare for the Friday prom. The wine bottles each held two red carnations which deco- rated the tables at the Lane Center at Frostburg State College. Picture this Taking pictures helps Christy Carr and Scott Stevens to better remem- ber the prom. Most students attend- ing the prom had their pictures tak- en at home and at the dance. Frost at the beach With a beach party as the theme of the after-prom, Mike Turner, Tessie Rowe, and Jeff Philips dress the part. Because of cold temperatures, stu- dents altered their outfits by wearing sweats over their Hawaiian shirts and JAMS. The sweats were soon shed as Q-94 heated up Maplehurst.
