1953 JUNIOR PROM Queen Patricia Rammien 3nd Kinc Philip Putman After much discussion we finally decided to have our prom over to the Rivera Ballroom in Lake Geneva, instead of the local gym where they have always been held before. On Friday April 10th, 1953, all of our friends,chaperones, and school class mates, toured over to Lake Geneva to dance to the music of Bud Wilbur and his Orchestra. There were many couples there and girls clad in pretty formats which sat at tables while not dancing. The spectators satat big tables with umbrella's over them to watch the gay event. At 10:00 P.M. the climax of the crowning was about to begin. Senior King Ronald Wheel -er and his Queen Betty Boniface crowned our Junior King Philip Putman and his Queen Patricia Rammien. Our crown bearers were Bonnie Veley and Brian Bates. After the crowning was over everyone joined in the Grand March and it really was a lot of fun. Then Bud Wilbur and his Orchestra played our choosen theme song April in Paris. Mr. Huckaby sold tickets in the ticket office for the Juniors and our chaperons for the evening were Mr. and Mrs. W. Lock, Mr. and Mrs. L. Cox, and Mr. and Mrs . L. Prahl. This prom will surely be a memorable and enjoyable event to all of those who attended it. Our court consisted of the following: Senior Representatives: Junior Representatives: Sophomore Representatives: Freshman Representatives: Joyce Martin, Ray Orentas Glenda Bates, Gordon Veley Ruth Redenius, David Peterson Barbara Thiele, Edwin Wilke 13
