SA90JlAfiA scts pace far Prom ’22 The word “Prom” means different things to different people, but for most it is a night anxiously awaited for. Setting the mood for the evening, the theme “We’ve Only Just Begun” was depicted by an unusual oriental decor. • Mugs and oriental chimes were selected as favors. The highlight of the evening was the announcement of the 1977 prom queen and king. Students voiced their approval as Kim Queer and Steve Hepburn were elected. After-prom was held from 1:00 to 5:00 a.m. at Dean’s Admiral Convention Center l in Merrillville. Roast beef was served as the main course. The next day, sleepy but happy couples prepared for another busy day. Many went to the beach or to Turkey Run, while still others preferred the excitement of Great America. Late Sunday night, students said “Sayanora” to a weekend which will long be remembered. It was great while it lasted. 1976 ' s reigning couple Nan- cy Logan and Kurt Ford give up their crowns after a great year. 14 Prom

Jfeidi leads Graduates The day arrived with mixed emotions. Much happiness, a little sorrow, and some fear was felt by all. It ' s over, high school is over. Graduation brings with it not only the feeling of accomplishment, but also the feeling of new found freedom. After the final step in their high school career was completed, the seniors accepted their diplomas and left. Now on their own, the decision remains of what to persue. Many will go to college to make their goal complete. Others will try their luck at the job market. Young people today make up a large proportion of the nation ' s working force. Graduates are not the only young people interested in finding a job. Unlike the alumni, high school students have different reasons for seeking employment. A job for students may be the first chance for many of them to experience independence. Both jobs and graduation bring about a change in our becoming adults. This is the beginning of a new time filled with headaches, joys, and forever, It ' s over, it’s finally over. The final papers. After four years of fun and hard work, it is all over for Doreen Zemen with only a piece of paper as proof. Beginning at the end.
