'84 Prom Full of Magic The 1984 Jr.-Sr. Prom was held April 13 in the Wahoo High School gym. The banquet was held at the Presbyterian Church. King and Queen were Randy Koranda and Ann Lindley. The prom servers presented a skit that looked into a few of the seniors' futures. Superintendent Hunzeker gave his after-dinner speech and the candidates were announced by Ann Hancock. The candidates were Jenny Olson, Dan Thompson, Shelli Miller, Jerome Johnson, Susie Laudenback, Dave Lorenzen, Alysia Ferguson, and Mark Simonson. The entry to the dance floor was a trellis covered with flowers and doves. The ceiling was strung with pastel streamers, ranging in color from lilac, baby blue, pink, and mint green. A large pink and white gazebo was the center for the coronation. The background for the pictures was a bridge with blue and white angel hair underneath and pink and purple flowers around it and a starry night behind. Refreshments were served in a wishing well. The music was supplied by KFRX, the D.J. was Tracey Johnson.

Journalism Makes Strides in Creating Yearbook The annual staff made some changes this year in the traditional annual. They used a colored picture of a '56 T-Bird as a symbol of our yearbook and Movin' On was chosen as the annual's theme. The group visited a yearbook seminar in Omaha sponsored by Wals-worth Publishing Company. Another highlight this year was the visitation to the class by Larry Faust, a writer for the Omaha World-Herald. Journalism I did its usual production of the school newspaper. In addition, they put together a magazine with original pictures and stories written by the students. The newspaper staff tried to improve our school by creating the idea of a winter formal dance. They also won a poster contest designed to uplift school spirit. Pictures for photography layouts were taken at the Omaha Zoo and the State Capitol instead of the usual places. The portrait assignments had better and larger negatives because of the use of a large negative camera. Computers did wonders with the typing and printing of each story. Students were able to correct errors more easily, save stories for later reference, and insert or delete complete sentences and paragraphs.
