Dreams Do Come True The romance of moonlight and roses became the inspiration for the prom as roses and “breath of spring” decorated each table. As students entered the gym, a scent of roses filled the air as Host Mike Pausic and Hostess Becky Zendt distributed memory booklets. The Palace of Versailles in Paris, France, as seen by Junior Sponsor Will- ard Strickland, was the inspiration for the decorations. Decorating began Thursday evening during school and continued until prom time. When the clock chimed 8:00, couples began drift- ing into the transformed gym. Seeing friends and dancing to the music of Crimson made the evening live up to all expectations. At 10:00, Senior Class President Joey Binns and Vice-president Laura Mat- thews gathered everyone around the bandstand for the announcement of king and queen. Amid applause and excited laughter, Steve Roberson and Robin Collins were introduced to the crowd. At the approach of midnight, danc- ers retired to a continuation of fun at parties, breakfasts, or other more ro- mantic spots. Come on and hold me.

Are You a Turkey or Just Chicken? The Turkey Bowl proved to be what it has traditionally been, on the surface a friendly test of sports ability between the juniors and seniors, but on closer inspection, a true test of “Who’s the turkey?” Volleyball pits the natural foes against one another in a contest of three games. The team leaders, Senior Scott Pick- en and Junior Melvin Stone, planned team strategy while bystanders and sideline players cheered their favorite teams. The first and second games of the bowl were won by the seniors, bu t the final game was a bittersweet vic- tory for the juniors. The final festivity was a ‘“winner’s circle’ scene as Scott Picken accepted the trophy for the seniors. The juniors then received another not so honored prize — the turkey. Chants of “Seniors! Seniors!”” filled the air as the victors reveled in their win. Melvin Stone summed up the spirit of a great match when he remarked, “We're on the warpath for the 1981 Turkey Bowl!” Go for it! Juniors watch the descending ball as they plan a return attack. 26 Turkey Bowl “1 got it!” Karen Black prepares to spike the ball back to the seniors.
