emotions rise; team snatches sectionals For the first time in the scnool ' s history, Elmhurst fans knew the joy of sectional victory as the Trojans defeated Leo in Fort Wayne Sectional One ' s cham- pionship game. Despite increased school spirit and team determination, further hopes were destroyed when the squad lost to Garrett in the Regional finals. Enthusiasm filled the halls during sectional week as the Trojans moved closer to the championship game. Victory in the first tournament clash over peren- nial foe Central Catholic was spurred by a pep assembly at which the squad received good luck gifts. Continuing their support at pep sessions and games, students and faculty participated in poster contests, a whisper campaign and car caravans, boosting spirit to its peak.

I smiled I was happy I found myself Between two suns. Beth Hoag ORANGE-PINEAPPLE PUNCH and cookies supplied by the Home Ec. department are being served by sophomore representative Jerri Gawthrop to senior Keith Kryder and sopho- more Cindy Smallwood. In an atmosphere of radiant sunshine, the 1971 Prom unfolded in the cafeteria May 1, highlighted by Queen Beth Hoag ' s coronation. Illuminated protraits of the Queen and Court and three-dimensional sculptured walls portraying sun designs carried out the theme BETWEEN TWO SUNS. With art classes again devoting several months to decoration construction, this work marked art instructor Don Goss ' s last year as Prom sponsor. Following the Prom, tradition was broken as couples attended the After- Prom at Meyers Barn instead of the usual semi-formal dance. Despite occasional rain, activities included hayrides and a dance, with music provided by Beachwood Farm. This decision was made after surveying junior and senior class preferences. BEFORE THE TRADITIONAL first dance, junior Class President Ron Bush adjusts junior Queen Beth Hoag ' s crown. p. 26 Prom
