Prom and Banquet fl The gymnasium at Conrad High School, transformed into a Holland scene was the setting for the Junior Prom of 1946. Life sized pictures of Hollanders chasing their geese covered the south Wall, while blue and white streamers hung from a balcony of multicolored tulips. A huge Windmill, a Holland shoe punch stand, and the entire room alive with color was the glorious scene which culminated the school year in a most festive and memorable manner. Using a touch of Holland as a colorful background, the faculty and members of the Senior and Junior classes enjoyed a delicious banquet sponsored by the mothers of the Junior class, and served by Sophomore Home Economics girls. A fitting program followed and the school song, Onward Conrad, was sung. f58l

C orleen Warwick Senior Play The Senior play, June Mad, which was directed by Mr. Cornn, played to practically a capacity filled gymnasium. Realistically portraying their parts to perfection were Charlotte Moore CPenny Woodb, Helen Gort iMrs. Woody, and Lewis Hammer- meister CMr. Woodi. Those Seniors who carried their parts well and did much to add local color to the play were, Dale Inabnit iChuck Harrisl, a juvenile airplane fanatic, and Donna Beattie fMilly Loul, as the neighborhood pest. Don Gouchenour CElmer Tuttlel, and Joan McCracken iEffieJ, the domestics of the Wood household, furnished the comedy in the play, which delighted the audience.

A supporting cast of Corleen Warwick CJulie Harrisi, Merwin Mun- son fMr. Harrisl, Lanice Roser and Wallace Towey as Shirley and Ralph Wentworth, completed the cast of fine actors and actresses. 1571
