Prom perplexes anxious students I just washed my hair, and I can ' t do a thing with it . . . These are the typ- ical words spoken by so many frantic girls as the gallavant from bedroom to bathroom getting ready for their prom; and on Saturday, May 13, Ripplites were no exception. The evening sun finally set, and with a straightening of the bow tie, or a combing of the last hair into place, Ripplites were off to such places as King Cole, Stouffers, Hilton, and even the Hyatt Regency for dinner. After feasting on many delectable dishes, 150 enthusiastic couples filed into the doors of the Convention Center. Prom-goers swayed to the tunes of Midnight Sun, as they played the theme Always and Forever , from the hit album by Heatwave. The song and dance became interrupted halfway through the evening for the crowning of prom king and queen. The lucky couple, Fawn Kimbrough and Kerry Murray danced arm in arm as others watched. When the clock struck midnight, no cars turned to pumpkins, or formals to rags, but the 1978 prom came to an end, not for good though, for Ripplites will go to proms always and forever.
