Although it seemed like there wasn ' t going to be a Junior-Senior Prom, due to the lack of money, the junior class finally managed to raise enough to finance the Prom. Because of sparse crowds at football games, the regular money raiser, the foot- ball concession stand, brought in only $150 which meant that other fund raisers had to be held. The junior class decided on an enchilada supper, for which local mer- chants and juniors donated food and time. The supper turned out to be a success, said Mrs. Dorothy Frosch, one of the junior class sponsors. Other junior class sponsors were Mervyn Wertz, Miss Evelyn Carmack, Mrs. Becky Seybert, Guy Claypool, Albert Holguin, Dick Valenzuela, and John McCoilaum. Somewhere in a Misty Rain Forest was the theme of the prom, and decorations included a waterfall, forest scenes painted by Bill McKinley, Dina Marquez, and other juniors, and vines hanging from the ceiling. Refreshments of punch and cookies were served by sophomore girls. DHS students danced to the music of Conexion, a band from Las Cruces, which played all types of music. Memories of the prom will last the Jun- iors and Seniors a life time with pictures of couples taken by Bush Studio. 166 ' 1 ki H
