T20 Couples Attend May Prom Based on Tapestry Theme l'My life has been a tapestry Of rich and royal hue An everlasting vision Of the everchanging view A wonderous woven magic In bits of gold and blue A tapestry to feel and see Impossible to hold With tapestry as the theme Prom was full of long lasting memories. lt was held at Wordin-Martin while Universal Language provided the music from 9-12 p.m. The Festivities were carried on to Post Prom where 260 people came to play pool and eat till 4 in the morning. A few die-hards were willing to continue the next day and enioy a hearty picnic.

The Black Ball was held at Century 21 at 8:00 P.M. The cost ot the tickets was 53.00 per person and 55.00 per couple and was used for scholarships. The couples danced to the music ot llCaution until 12:00. After 12:00 the couples headed for the Thunderbird theatre for the Afterset. The Afterset began at 1:00 A.M. and did not end until 4:00 A.M. The Black Ball will bring back many hap- py memories for all those who attended. What dances were acceptable for the girls to invite the guys? The answer was Precious and Few, the theme for the vice- versa dance last year. The idea of the vice- versa dance was forthe girls to ask their es- corts to the dance. Last year the dance was a total success with a 101-couple turnout fgirl inspiredj in comparison to the 45- couple fboy inspiredl turnout of the Valen- tine's day dance a month before. Debbie Meislahn and John Phillips reign- ed as king and queen over the dance after having been picked by the band in grand march, a new idea this year. Vice-versa has been around for many years, and probably will be around for quite a few more, giving girls a little llglimpse of liberation annually.
