EUEIDUEDUCU 16 Prom Prom Queen, Sally Stone, accepts congratu- lations from friends and onlookers. Both the king and queen were voted for at the door and announced during the dance by the pres- ident of the Student Council, Dean Wolfe. Escort Dave Glenn, on her left, was first to congratulate her. LUG IDE ayton's Convention Center became a home- made heaven for the 1974 junior and Senior Prom. Angel hair dra ing the en- trance and a blue and silver tissue paper staircase climb- ing both sides reflected the theme: Stairway to Heaven. Chosen to reign as kin and queen were Kit Clarlgand Sally Stone. Attendants to the king and queen were Irene Anderson, Sharon Carpenter, Keith Dimbath, Kay Feeney, Dave Glenn, john Oakman, Chris Peterson, and Dean Wolfe. For the second year in a row, the music for the three and one-half hour event was provided by the band l.T.S. Brown. Those heading for after- prom opened their weary eyes at an unexEected sight. Four male strea ers sprinted across the lighted lawn of East buildin while students boardeg the buses. Rain poured at Le Sourdes- ville Lake as the after- prom activities got under way, but the unwelcomed pre- cipitation did not dampen spirits. Until 5:30 a.m. couples scrambled from ride to ride and from shelter to shelter. Couples dragged them- selves rom the returning buses to their cars and head- ed home for an early break- fast. The ones that lasted throughout the entire event spent the following after- noon soaking up t e sun at Hueston Woods.
