Prom proves formal affair Months of preparation, requiring “tons” of money finally “paid off” on May 2 as the 1980 Junior-Senior Prom became a reality. Couples gathering at the Salvatorian Hall in Merrill- ville danced to the music of “Sircus”, a local band. Jun- iors Myra Benjamin and Phil Werno were crowned King and Queen of the annual event. “Stairway to Heaven,” was chosen as the dance’s theme by the committee of juniors sponsoring the affair. Mrs. Karen Alvarez, faculty member, served for the first time as sponsor for the Junior Class. Spasoff Studio provided photographs for the spring formal dance.
