King Mike Hanlon and Queen Martha Heisterberg lead the Grand March into the ballroom. Perched on top of A1 Wright’s head is the hat made by his date Pat Procter for the Excalibur dance, Symphony in Silver.’’ c rownings J Cig L l ' glil Everyone looks forward to the annual Rose Dance, sponsored each April by the Sunshine Society. For weeks before, Sunshine girls are in the halls taking orders for roses which are delivered to the gals during the last period on the day of the dance. Each Sunshiner secretly hopes that she will be one of the two candidates from each class who are nom¬ inated by the Sunshine Society for Rose Queen. The big moment comes that night when the Sunshine president crowns the queen, who has been elected by the entire student body. This is a dress-up” dance and one of the social highlights at the Hub. The Excalibur introduced something new at the Hub this year when they turned one of their Fri¬ day night dances into a Symphony in Silver.” The Excalibur staff decided that turn about is fair play”, so girls provided transportation, tickets, AND corsages. The corsages were made by the gals and designed to fit their dates’ personalities. Most of the “corsages” turned up in the form of hats, though. Prizes went to the owners of the three best hats or corsages and C.P.H.S.’ers . . . especially the guys . . . gave their whole-hearted approval to this new type dance. Page twenty-two

Social VJU at C. V- Jf. S. Chuck Collins, junior class president, crowns Mike Hanlon and Martha Heisterberg as King and Queen of the 195 5 Junior- Senior Prom. A warm spring night ... a big bright moon . . . a new formal ... a handsome tux . . . flowers . . . music ... the prom. This is the juniors’ gift to the graduating seniors. Juniors are proud and very gay; the seniors are just a little sad for this marks the end of their four-year careers as C.P.H.S.’ers. Last year’s prom was in May at Lincolnshire Country Club in Crete, Illinois. The Class of 1956 chose Spring Fever” as its theme and more than 200 juniors, seniors, and their guests danced to the music of Bill Carnegie. The juniors chose Martha Heisterberg and Mike Hanlon as the queen and king to reign at the most important event of the year. This year’s prom was moved up to March and was in the Crystal Ballroom of the Hotel Gary. Instead of the usual hot meal served at midnight, the juniors chose a buffet supper. The Class of 1957 made a lot of changes with the prom, but, after the newness had worn off, we found that it was still our prom and all the traditions of the prom were still there. Page twenty-three
