CkKiUma FoL wiaC acce Ja tadenU, dtaJJ It was truly a night of enjoyment. Flashing lights . . . the fresh scent of Christmas trees . . . sleek evening gowns . . . flowers, flowers, flowers. Ah . . . the mystery of yuletide spirit which filled this year ' s Christmas for- mal was a dream in itself — it was a dream of while Christmas. With the theme Winter Wonder- land and the gym turned into the IHS ballroom, said Activities Director Sherry Phelps, I think we really sur- prised the kids with the amo jnt of preparation put into it. They realized it was a party and a formal instead of just another dance. It turned out great. I had students constantly coming up to me and say- ing how wonderful a time they had. I ' m just really happy it turned out this successful, she added. The Dec. 15 formal; which cost nearly $3,000 to produce, was an exciting event since lighting designer Budie Tobie was hired, a mirrored disco ball was purchased and a false ceiling was installed. Five Christmas trees, one which stood 14 feet tall and others eight, were placed appro- priately inside the ballroom and a lit- tle garden house termed a gazebo was used for better interior designing effects, also. Mary lohnson, president of the activities council, was according to Phelps, the overseer of everything. Of course, the remainder of the council added their talents for the evening which gathered 300 people, 150 couples. The band that per- formed was Joshua. Most of the people seemed to really like them. To me, they played danceable music instead of just hard rock. I ' d like to see them come to Irvine more often, commented Phelps. As usual, a court was voted on by their fellow peers. Seniors Tom Gre- gor and Tobye Lovelace were announced King and Queen while Steve Renteria and Brenda Miller were honored senior prince and prin- cess. The junior prince and princess were Eddie Heinsius, and Lucy McConnville. Sophomores Jamie Sturtevant and Hallie Mohr were their class selections and the fresh- man prince and princess were David Kuo and Tracy Droke. And so the Christmas formal bid many a couple a white yuletide remembrance even without the snow; it was truly a night of enjoy- ment. 1. Showing a little Christmas Cheer is Kelly Gee while she boogies to the beat of Joshua. 2. Couples gather around Christmas tree for a group shot. 3. Dancing the night away is Larry Pellet and date. 4. When hounded by demand- ing fans, Jeff Cruz and Mary lohnson were bus- ily signing autographs in Christmas Formal Guest book. 5. Hey, for a buck we do a great impression of a pine tree; exclaim Sue Hillyer, Dom Cioffoletti and Connie Odden. 6. When asked if they were enjoying the Winter Won- derland Ron Shaefer and Kerry Knowles respond with a big smile. Christmas FormpI 19
