Prom Is Gala Affair What memories Prom brings back-over-worked mothers, boys uncomfortably crawling into their freshly pressed suits, dinner at the Belle, and the Prom itself! That night the Terp Ballroom was trans- formed into a moving rainbow by the lovely maze of varied formals. As the endless lines went through the formation of the Grand March, the soft svvish of feet could be heard above the music. After the last dance was played and the soft swish of feet had died away, after the parties and the early breakfasts, the wee hours of the morning found heavy eyes but light hearts.

T We Move Forward Into The Future We made it! The thought ot graduation brings mingled emotions to the seniors of Austin High School. The excitement of graduation is dampened by the thought of leaving high school. While iuniors anticipate becoming seniors, the seniors are wishing they could begin all over again. After thirteen years ot reading, writing, and arithmetic, the class of '57 will have many things to remember. Besides the studying and work there will be the extra special homecoming, the clubs, mixers, extracurricular activities, the most wonder- ful Prom of all, skip day, and finally graduation to also be remembered. While walking across the stage to the strains ot Pomp and Circumstance and receiving his diploma, the graduate realizes that another phase ot his lite has ended. Still, the many events seniors enjoyed proved that the often sung or shouted statement 57's the best year was true. For the graduated senior the future holds various pathways. Further schooling, working, serving Uncle Sam, whatever road they take, these graduates will always remember i957 at Austin High. Another class now moves out into the world, ready to assume adult responsibilities. GRADUATION MARKS THE CLOSE of another phase of their life for Judy Hogrefe and Norm Viste. BUSILY SIGNING AUSTINIANS are Beverly Hund- lo, Suzanne Meister, Jean Veverka, Carolyn Babb, Phyllis Smith, Diane Spiess and Carol Johnson.
