CLASSY NIGHTS: SWEETHEARTS AND PROM Flying kites at night?! What event would stir imaginations to such creativity? Junior Prom. It was the dance in which plans were kept secret. Dinner at LaCaille, helicopter rides, and transportation in li- mosines were among the many assorted surprises. Excitement and anticipation was felt throughout the student body as the time drew near for formal dresses and suits or tuxedos. It was the one chance of the year to go all out and enjoy the at- mosphere of the Capitol Ro- tunda. Being such a super dance, why did it seem that fewer than usual people were attending? Money was the reason of course! Although the school tried to keep the cost down by stressing that tuxedos were not required, it was still an expen- sive dance. It’s the type of thing you know is coming up and you should save for it if you want to go”, said Joel Johnson who attended J.P. Yet many still said, It’s too rich for my blood! , and went to a mov- ie. For those who did attend the money was well spent on an elegant evening full of fun, and as the theme declared, Inno- cent Love. Rivaling Junior Prom for the nicest dance of the year was Sweethearts. The only dressy girl’s choice dance, Sweet- hearts was very popular. It was less expensive than J.P. and yet still classy. Held near Valen- tines, it was the perfect oppor tunity for girls to ask their sweetheart or the guy they had their eye on all year. Based on Jack Wagner's song All I Need , the theme added to the romantic atmosphere. Royalty was Heidi Bowman, Mindy Lar- son, and Teresa Jensen. All seemed pleased with this choice of royalty and with the night in general. 34 CJunior Prom

Enjoying the atmosphere of the State Capitol, many couples took advantage of the marble benches for a short chat. Looking their best and holding each other closely made Sweethearts sweet for Teresa Jensen and Bryan Thayer. Pictures make special momentos of dances making a pleasant mem- ory permanent. As the romantic theme song •‘All I Need” plays, sweethearts sway and whisper in each other's ears. Sweethearts O 35
