Horse drawn carriages and glass slippers by the magic of time transformed into 1982 Cadillacs When that two o'clock bell rang on May 13, the transformation began for many students, for that night would bring the long awaited prom. Girls would rid themselves of the uniform skirts to don the silk or satin gowns so carefully selected or made anywhere from a month to a day ago. Meanwhile the guys were donning their matching tuxedos and picking up corsages for their ladies. As dusk settled upon the evening, most people were ready to call it a day, but the night was young for prom-goers. With ‘‘stogies”’ in right hand pockets and flowers in their hands, the gentlemen were off to pick up their dates. Some came in the grand manner in rented Cadillacs, chauffeur driven; others, in the family’s best car; still others in their own newly-polished school models. Having posed for Daddy and his Nikon, they took off for the Lantana and a dance that was to be more like a royal ball. The receiving line gamut was much less painful than anticipated as friendly faculty welcomed each couple. After dinner, there was dancing till eleven, when Queen Donna Sylvester was crowned and had her royal dance with her court. At the twelfth stroke of the chimes, only the dance ended. Post-prom parties and late get-togethers saw Cinderellas and princes in reverse transformation. Luckily cars did not turn into traditional pumpkins. Some of the boys who didn’t make it home came to school in their tux. Ready to sit through a day of classes, 90% still asleep, they persevered till the two o'clock bell. A full day of classes followed the night of frills, fancies, and parties. The prom was over, the moment of glamor was only temporary, but the memories will last forever. Queen and her Court include Gary Mages, Bonni Howard, Thomas McNul- ty, Elizabeth Latta, Queen Donna Sylvester and date, Trisha Buzzell, Pat Cunningham, Jane Welcher, and Paul Benson. Although tired, the moments are no less special for John Sheehy and Patricia Coyle. Dancing the night away are Stephen Birch and Marthe-Anne Healy. Perfection of the evening is evidenced in the expressions of Thomas McNulty and Elizabeth Latta. Prom 11

Suitable for business, sports, or shopping are the cotton skirt and plaid blouse with eyelet trim modeled by Darcie Harris. Changing roles from narrator to model, Mrs. Madeleine Livingston shows her black harem pants to advantage. Wearing a lovely peignoir of white nylon, Kathy Federico shows the best in night wear. Teigs model- ing the Feehan uni- form? Is it the new fad of the 80’s? The ever popular plaid skirt and polyester sweater was not one of the outfits present at the Fashion Show. Instead, flowing skirts, ele- gant nightgowns, and zippy sportwear ap- peared in the cafeteria. Sponsored by Two Sports Clothing Store the Fashion Show at- tracted devotees of both sexes. For one night, Feehan’s versatile cafeteria was meta- morphosed into a spectacular Paris Spring Showing, revealing the newest styles and fashions. Sister Ricarda Wobby, director of fundraising, assured her buyers and bidders of full stomachs by having wine and cheese served between models’ showing. After the last model made her tour of each table, buyers left the cafeteria only to relocate at the Two Sports Clothing Stores located in Attleboro, North Attleboro, Norton, and Taunton. For one brief evening, Feehan shed its plaid skirts and polyester sweaters to be- come the most fashionable high school around. They’re play- ing our song” and did they ever! On March 5, 1982, students and faculty chorus could be heard making beautiful music together in such songs from ‘“‘Fame’’, “Chorus Line” and ‘‘They’re Play- ing My Song’’, under the exhuberant direc- tion of Ms. Elaine Saulnier. Soloist Lori Boucher was really “‘out there on her own’, as she charmed the audience with the popular tune from ‘‘Fame’’. An unexpected highlight of the evening was Sr. Carmel Ethier’s solo”, What I did for love’’. Allowing the chorus to have a breather, the talented fingers of Kelley Cocuzzo tickled the ivories with a Muzurka by Chopin and Hayden’s Sonata in E Major. To conclude the choral presentation, Ms. Saul- nier enchanted spectators with her own musi- cal talents in her rendition of “Danny Boy’’, and “‘As long as he needs me’”’. This night was not just reserved for the chorus. The Band also had their moment of glory. Displaying their versitility, they rendered mu- sic from Mozart and Bach, to Lennon, Bern- stein and Joplin. Band members were in awe as their director Francis Fitz-Patrick displayed his outstanding musical abilities on his flute. As a finale, Band and Chorus converted the auditorium into a scene from “‘New York, New York”. At the conclusion of this spectacu- lar extravaganza guests left humming their fa- vorite song or a newly found favorite. Concert, Fashion Show 13
