Top Row: Angela Tyner, Penny Stokes, Melissa Severance, Jimmy Bryant The Junior Class put to- gether another successful magazine drive after two weeks of sales. Grades six through twelve participated in the drive with the pre-primary through fifth grades only re- newing their parents’ subscriptions. Proceeds from the magazine sales financed the Junior-Se- nior Prom which was held April 18th in the gym. The mood created by the decorations was assisted by the music of the band, which called themselves August. It was indeed a night to be remembered. Mr. Eady measures Cindy Hill’s finger for a ring.
