s-- g Event of the year As in past years, the junior class spent many endless hours raising money to put on a successful prom. The prom was held in the Campus Activities Center ballroom theme being The Young and the Rest- less. Colors chosen for the prom were rose, blue, and silver, and the tables were all decorated with bouquets of pink and blue carnations. Shade provided the music for the prom. Janis Panizzi and John Chrisman were named Prom King and Queen, while Barbie Lang and Ivan Chris- man were chosen as junior atten- dants. 1!

3 Rain fails to dampen seniors' spirits For days, weeks and months, and even one whole year, the senior class hoped and prayed that there would be no moisture in the air on the night that they were to become alumni of Campus High. Ever since rain poured down upon the class of 1976 halfway through the gradu- ation exercises, the seniors had feared that they, too, would be drenched before they were able to receive their diplomas. On the Monday before the antici- pated date, the rain began and the forecast called for rain all week long. At last, Friday, May 20 came, along with a 70 per cent chance of rain. Noon came and still graduation was set for Colt Stadium. Finally, when the afternoon announcements were made, the decision to move the exercises to the gymnasium was announced. Six o'clock brought with it pouring rain and it continued. As the gradu- ates gathered in the cafeteria at 7:15, it was pouring down. By the time for the graduates to file into the gym, the rain had slacked up a bit, but it was still sprinkling and the sidewalks were full of water. Mrs. Carol Perez opened the exer- cises with the invocation. The choir then sang Walk into Your World and the Campus Alma Mater. Dr. James Shoemake, superinten- dent, then introduced the three speakers chosen to speak at gradu- ation by the senior class: Sandy Mora, Garry Pierce, and Zoe Bur- gess. Their topic was Energy, Past, Present, and Future. National Honor Society members and students receiving academic and athletic awards were recog- nized. The Ronnie Ward Award for the Most Inspirational Athlete was presented to John Chrisman. The Honor Athlete Award was presented to Steve Steele. The award is given each year to a senior who has participated in three sports each year and maintained a B-aver- age. Mr. Carlton Allen, principal, then presented the senior class to the school board and Dr. Harry Kouri, school board member accepted the class on behalf of the board. Dr. Kouri and Mr. Sigmund Leiker, then presented the diplomas. Mr. Norbert Schmeidler closed the graduation exercises by express- ing his wishes for the senior class members. The recessional of the class was held and it was all over. The mem- bers ofthe class of 1977 were alum- ni. 1' 7 it-T!
