funior-Senior Prom and Banquet, I 944 Friday night, May 19, 1944, at the annual Junior Prom, each lad and lassie walked hand in hand over the peppermint bridge into fairy land. The fairy god- mother must have touched each individual with her wand because everyone was gay and happy. ln the center of the floor was a large maypole bedecked with flowers and gay streamers. Walt Disneyis children looked on from the balcony in flower-framed portraits-everyone from little Thumper to Hewey and Dewey. On the stage Hansel and Gretel made their way to the witch's frosted house, watched over by Little Black Sambo and Humpty Dumpty. It was all anyone could do to keep from sampling the poles which were wrapped like candy sticks. Everyone filled out dance programs, which were red and white candy canes and danced until the mouse ran down the clock at twelve. A novel grand march was held at 9:30, led by Erwin Cramp and Velma Bertholf. Reluctantly enough, Mother Goose's guests made their way back over the peppermint bridge into the land of reality. Saturday, May ZO, 1944, after much preparation, the ,luniorfSenior Luncheon was given at the Grade School Auditorium. The gym was lovely with the decorations from the previous evening. The tables were adorned with bouquets of tulips, apple blossoms, and figurines. The place cards were clever candy turtles.
