One J[ [oKt Jlfigfo The jitters for most started Friday night. Anything from butterflies to flying saucers were orbiting inside stomachs. Lost sleep from excitement was not missed since the anticipation was so great. Preparations began early Saturday afternoon as the ex- citement grew. For what you ' re wondering? The 1986 Junior-Senior Prom of Course! Saturday, May 10 was the night and the Red Lion Inn was the place. For most the night began with a roman- tic dinner at a nice restaurant and a leisurely drive to the Inn for the prom which began at 9:00 p.m. As the couples entered the room, they enjoyed the beautiful decorations and spectacular chandeliers, the mirrored ceilings and giant video screen. At 11:30 p.m. the prom court which con- sisted of Eric Digby, Kevin Potter, Scott Sawyer, Chris Scarfone, Billy Zackowski, Jill Tanaka, Susan May, Melanie Grace, Jenny Raleigh, and Benjawan Williams lin- ed up and waited for the winners to be an- nounced. The tension mounted as junior class president, Kenny Holman said something about each individual and then tore open the envelope and announced that Eric Digby and Susan May were the Prom King and Queen for One More Night. Enjoying the luscious food display, Robert Fontaine and his girl friend stock up for the evening King and Queen of the prom are Susan May and Eric Digby who led the court in the first dance after their crowning.

I Haytlks V(Mt? On the night of March 22, 1986, the 12th annual Military Ball took place at the Officer ' s club located on March Air Force Base. Over 200 people joined together for a night of dining and dancing with special events sprinkled in between. One of the specials was special guest speaker, former MoVal ROTC student now a pilot at Norton AFB, Marcel Smith. He spoke to the cadets and guests about how the ROTC program changed his attitude toward life. Other events included the long awaited crowning of the Military Ball Queen. The royal court was made up of one student from each squadron including the weapons drill team whose representative was queen candidate, Jesse Salazar. As lovely a picture as Jesse made, he lost out to Phoung Martel who was crowned queen of the 1985 Military Ball. The other candidates were Lillian Rivera, Eva McCarty, Toya Hunter, Yvonne Sainz, and Mary Bancroft. Everyone found their favorite event sometime during the evening whether it was the social hour, dinner, or the hilariously unbelievable grog bowl toasts. The contents of the grog bowl remain a mystery from those who must force themselves to drink of it and prove that they drained their glass by turning it over above their head. Music was provided by the March Air Force Base band. ' « uhv H ftjf gfciirflP M r mSF ' 1 w y m.l I I L ij | |f Military Ball
