PROM 1974 with a banquet and prom Juniors said Sayonara to the Seniors on Friday, May 17 with the Jr. Sr. Banquet. Chris Cullis, this year's toast¬ master welcomed everyone, and Mr. Dan Sander said the prayer. The menu went right along with the Oriental theme as the banquet-goers were served egg rolls for appetizers, main dishes of chicken terivaki, sweet and sour pork, chicken chow mein or barbecue spare ribs with consomme soup on the side. For dessert, the Jr.'s and Sr.'s were served sundaes, and almond and fortune cookies. Mrs. Evelyn Schlosser's special creation, a Pagoda Cake served in honor of the Seniors. After the feast, Jr. class President, Steve Robert welcomed the seniors and thanked all those who had helped on the banquet. Sr. class President then gave his response and wished all the seniors good luck in the future. Re¬ marks were then made by Mr. Newell and Dr. King. Winding up the banquet, the Jr. girls ensemble sang a song that they wrote themselves, wishing the seniors a final Sayonara. After the banquet, the gym was quickly transformed into a huge oriental dance floor. The stage that had looked so normal all year long had changed into a tea house full of punches and cookies. The Coachmen were the featured musicians for the evening, and as they played their mellow tunes, couples were sliding across the floor arm in arm. When they tired of dancing, they could stroll through the cherry blossom trees, or rest under the giant Pagoda. After the Prom, the orientals became just kids again, as they went home to get back into their jeans before venturing over to the bus barn that was the home of the Greek gods for the evening. After a few hours of games there, the prom goers went back to the gym for a rock concert featuring T.S. Eliot. 10 Junior-Senior

SPIRAL STAIRCASE It took place in a gloomy mid-Victorian mansion located on the outskirts of a small American city. Directed by Terry Buehler, Marjorie Kissell and student director, Kim Smith, this Mask and Sandal presentation brought terror to many hearts. Helen, played by Beth Hardy, was an invalid in constant danger of being killed by an unknown murderer who had a hatred for invalids. This mystery mur¬ derer was Professor Warren, played superbly by Brian Boner. Professor Warren's wife, played by Karen Rupp, pretended to be an invalid in hopes of bringing this un¬ known murderer to her so she could kill him. Mrs. Oates, played by Toni Fritz, the constable played by David Hale, and Stephen Barker, played by Hartmut Wilhelm, had their part in bringing this play to its shocking climax.
