The argument goes on and on. The question being, should sophomores attend prom? As sophomores the class of 1975 voted for it, as Juniors and the prom hosts, they voted against it. Tradi¬ tion, they say, should go on. Most probably the argument will be continued for years to come. So, the Juniors choice of the theme for prom, We May Never Pass This Way Again, may not be so true, in the case of this debate. A handful of sophomores did attend, but only to serve punch and cookies to juniors and seniors. To be exact, 126 couples of juniors and sen¬ iors. The Sherwood Club was the new setting for the crowning of the 1974 king and queen, Jim McCord and Dayna Nussa. Dayna ' s court of Mary McConnell, Teri Smead and Kim Smith each received a charm and a rose. King candidates Tim Huber, Karl Monk and Gregg Sear- son received a key chain remembrance, but no rose.

' ' PotpOWlAl - A CcMpbocU Ol ' Musicak’’ Candlelight and music, comedy and tragedy, a con¬ glomeration of scenes and songs from musicals out of the past. People sitting four to a table, eating and drink¬ ing, watching the show, hav¬ ing a good time. Cabaret, you ask? No, Potpourri, the choirs ' spring prod¬ uction. Potpourri—Crown Points ' Scrapbook of Musi¬ cals was an entirely new idea, designed in order to break the monotony of a musical comedy every spring and to bring to a finish Mr. Johnsons years as a choir director. Songs were from twelve past musicals such as Carousel , Oklahoma , Carnival , and the unfor¬ gettable Music Man . Students were chosen to direct each individual seg¬ ment. They supervised the rehearsals, selected the songs, and helped cast the scenes. The gym was transformed into a Cabaret style theatre with tables-for-four arranged in front of the stage. During intermission Home Economics girls served coffee, punch, and cookies and modeled the clothes they had made that year.
