Seniors se ect Hyatt Regency Since seniors chose the Hyatt Regency Hotel for the site of the Senior Prom, the price of tickets could have been as high as S520 each. Money that the Sen- ior Play raised went toward the price of prom tick- ets, enabling each student to purchase a ticket for S8. Four hundred and twenty-seven students attended on April 2. Zazu Pitz, the band chosen by the five senior class officers, performed numerous selections. Included was Wasted Time, the senior song, dur- ing which the traditional ring turning ceremony took place. A. Watching couples having their pictures made, junior Vickie Baker and senior Robert Burt await their turn. B. Between dancing and eating, senior Keith Fowler and sophomore Cheryl Gardner find time to talk. C.

Gram pa Walton attends prom While many couples had prom pictures taken, senior Ann Gober had a very unique one, for she posed with Will Geer. Famous for his portrayal of Grampa Walton in the CBS television series, The Waltons, Nlr. Geer wandered into Deer Park's banquet room from the party next door. After the band started playing, an unexpected service was provided by the hotel - free-flowing Cokes were served. Although many students were over 18 years of age, the school policy of no liquor was strictly followed. Entertainment following the prom was widely varied. For instance, some students went out to eat afterwards at restaurants, such as Jimmy Walker's. The Houston Oaks Hotel and the Flag- ship Hotel were only two of the locations of pri- vate parties. Seniors also had breakfasts in their homes as morning drew near. Package pictures cost S4 per pose and each package included six prints. A. Seniors Cathy Corder and Blake Hutchinson wait to enter the banquet room. B. Assistant principal Homer Powell asks senior Brad Crawford to see about another microphone for the band, Zazu Pitz, as senior Lisa Torno awaits the decision. C. Representing the year- book staff, senior George Creighton announces Mr. and Miss Deer Park. ,.1. l l i i 1 I v r 4 I , i ' 1 .Q 5,7 -,sg 7 , T W, PAGE 266 f SENIORS Q I K QV! f mx B ,Q
