“A Time to Remember,” the theme of the junior-senior prom, reflected the mood of this auspicious affair. This an¬ nual tradition, awaited with great an¬ ticipation, climaxed into a night of delight. Stouffer’s of Crystal City, a traditional place to hold the prom, was filled with ex¬ citement and laughter. Tuxedos, fancy gowns, and good music filled the ballroom as the music was acousted by the group McCoy. For two consecutive years, McCoy was carefully selected by Mr. Thomas Gaul and Mr. Roger Dallek among many of the Washington area bands. Mr. Roger Dallek, Mrs. Marjorie Florence, and Mrs. Greta Raines, the prom sponsors, along with the junior class officers began preparations early. Futqre Queenl World Studies teacher, Mr. David Boim, dances with his daughter, Allison, during one of the slow songs. Allison got an early taste of what the prom is going to be like for her in the future. Merriment Galore To raise enough money for both the junior and senior class, the juniors worked very arduously raising funds. Aesthetic peuters were sold in the early months of school, and spirit buttons were sold in the middle of the school year. Five prom committees were formed to help organize and prepare for the prom in the areas of theme, band, photography, favors, and food. ‘‘It’s the seniors’ last year, and I wanted to give them something before they left.” commented Mark Rau, one of the members of the prom committee. As the trend went, the prom court was presented in the ballroom, but there was an addition to this tradition. For the first time a king of the prom was designated. Crowned by the junior class President, Jon Rochelle Raines, Mr. Roger Dallek Passing down tradition! Continuing tradition, graduate and former Prom Queen Jennifer Collie crowns senior Jyl Horne, the Prom Queen of 1983. It was traditional for a previous Prom Queen to pass down the honor to the next Prom Queen. “He’s a maniac!” Senior Mike Chapman and his date dance to the music as freely as they can with the amount of room he has. There was a limited amount of room on the dance floor, since so many juniors and seniors attended this festive dance. became the first. He was hailed this honorable position for his previous suc¬ cessful work and dedication concerning the prom preparation. Mr. Roger Dallek will not be returning to the school next year and students will miss his presence. Following tradition, Jyl Horne, the Queen of the prom, was crowned by the former Prom Queen, Jennifer Collie. Four princesses and the maid of honor were also recognized by the prom court. Prom with all of its grandeur and glamour is part of a tradition, commented Mary Dohse, ‘‘The prom went beyond by expectations, I will never forget that night.” As demonstrated in this tradi¬ tional dance, the prom presented itself to be flexible, and a part of the seniors’ precious memories. 14 Student Life
