1968 Junior-Senior Prom Theme Mrs. Greenfield supervised the decorating Cindy and Colleen With the Arc de Triomphe After long weeks of arguing, planning, and ordering the juniors started decorating for their prom, Paris by Night, with not enough crepe paper, ridgewall, or flowers. There were some lucky breaks, though, such as the borrowing of a gilded fountain, that made up for the disappointments. Many last minute changes were made, there were some unfinished homework assignments, and the work was hard but rewarding. The unique decorations were enjoyed by all, and the prom was a suc- cess.
