Assemblies tried to take monotony out of learning. Many assemblies this year were on the brighter side. For the first time in the history of Crown Point High School an assembly was held in the audito¬ rium. Also this year a new idea was used in assembly attendance; the school was divided so that the ground and first floor had class while the second floor attended the assembly and vice-versa. Among the assemblies held this year were a hypnosis assembly where stu¬ dents were hypnotized, an assembly given by Campus Life where a rock group was featured, and various sports and pep assemblies. Underclass honors assembly for this year was canceled. Junior Dennis Baird and his opponenl (lop) at the wrestling 3 year. The male cheerleaders run a race around the gym on their ‘‘cycles (above).

House of Lynwood hosted 1976 prom. As each couple entered the door, they were greeted by a huge room with white covered tables and football mums. As the hour of 8 p.m. grew near, tension grew among the pairs as they waited for their meals. Finally the food was served. The appetizers and deserts varied, with roast beef served as the main course. Plates taken and tables cleared, the fun began. The Ron Rodger’s Band took their places and the music resounded throughout the room. After a Dutch mix of rock and roll and slow dance music, the band played a medley of one song from every decade since 1930 until now. When the final hour of the prom was near, the entire group of people gath¬ ered into a huge circle around the dance floor. Then a tambourine was supplied to one person who had to go out on the dance floor and “do his own thing”, to the music, and then pass it on to someone else. Finally, nearly an hour past the time the prom was due to be over, the lights went down and everyone left having eaten too much, danced too much, and laughed too much, but delighted with the evening. The royal couple (right) Mark Schach and Cheryl Stuhlmacher embrace during their solo dance. Junior Chris DeRisi and senior Lynette Balias (above) chat quietly on the dance floor. In their bicentennial garb Jim Prange and his date Cheryl Tippy (top) are jovial at the prom.
