A Cruise to the Stars was the theme of the junior-Senior Prom, held April 28 in the cafeteria. The scene of a thousand dull lunch hours became magically trans- formed into a beautiful winter scene. The main decoration was an unusual fountain that contained dry ice, giving the room a foggy, interesting overcast. Moonchild provided the music. Although many couples came to the Prom for a few minutes only before going to Houston or local restaurants for dinner, the Prom was nevertheless enjoyed by many. Spon- sors were Danny Goviale, Minnette Christinsen, Lavern John, Kathy Chris- tianson, and Ray Murrell.

Chorus members, lead performers, and band members put in hours of grueling rehearsals after school and at night, but the work was worth it in the end, when audiences responded with laughter and tears to the performances of play participants.
