Moonlight 26 And Roses The secret atmosphere of an atomic bomb project . . . The splendor of a palace ballroom . . . The gaiety of an inaugural ball . . . These are some of the characteristics of a Bruns- wick Academy Junior-Senior Prom. The 1971 prom was even more special at Brunswick Academy, since it was the first to be held in the school’s new gym- nasium. Untold hours of work by the junior class resulted in a wonderful surprise and delight for the seniors as they came through the doors of the gym to enter an atmosphere of “Moonlight and Roses. The evening disappeared all too quickly, but the memories of the night will long linger with those who were there. The music of a dance quickly passes away, but the sounds of a junior-senior last forever.

MISS BA 1971 . . . Classes and clubs selected their most beautiful young ladies to rep- resent them in the 1971 Miss Bruns- wick Academy contest. Many problems forced postpone- ment of the event from its usual time in early winter. Nevertheless, when the time finally arrived that the contest was held, in the spring, tension was still high. Students, patrons, and friends watched and made their own choices while the judges deliberated in the process of making a decision. As the number of contestants dwindled to five and then to three, everyone held their breath to await the announcement of the winner. When the judges’ decision was announced, Miss Martha Keedwell had become the winner of the “Miss Brunswick Academy 1971’’ title. Wanda Queen was the first run- ner-up and Vicki Lewis was second runner-up. 28
