A colorful mural of a beach and setting sun covered the office where pictures of couples were taken. An erupting volcano was the central fig- ure in a picturesque background for the main scene. In front of the mural was a grass hut and a rowboat with a lobster trap. Bamboo paper on the walls and fish nets draped from the ceiling carried out the theme of a tropical paradise. A warm, rainless evening enabled couples to enjoy refreshments in the garden. Karen Robertson was crowned queen of the prom by Alan Killey, junior class president. The court consisted of Diane Callahan, Susan McCrary, Mary Lou Per- kins, Sarah Reedy, Sheila Ballard, Sherry Gilbert, Laurie Hess, and Laura Spur- geon. Those serving as escorts were Don DeBurger, Rob Fowler, Gil Speer, Tony Nehrt, Buster Cummings, Clif Thomas, Tom Clark, and Greg Warren. “Happy Days” was the theme of the after-prom sponsored by parents of ju- niors and seniors. The band, “Roadmas- ter’, provided the music. Door prizes, donated by local merchants, were presented during band breaks. —
