l 1 :A ' jst xt ' i .......W, . YW., The Field and Awards Day of the spring of 1978 was not as physically grueling as usual - the field was sunk beneath an inch of water. Every- one, therefore, crowded into the cafetorium for the traditional fried chicken, ham, potato salad, baked beans, and cake, and for the first time in history, Colonel Quimby permitted students to eat on the carpet. CParents used the table on the ter- razzo floor.J After the indoor picnic, Col. Quimby presented the NEDT, Most Oustanding Student in . . ., and Most Conscientious Student in . . . Awards, and, finally, Mr. Fargason presented the Most Outstanding Junior Girl and Boy Award to Tricia Hubbard and Carl Walker.

The Last Rites of Spring The underwater world was the theme of the 1978 Junior-Senior Prom. The Anniston Country Club foyer was decorated with a large mural covered with painted tropical fish. Fish net hung in folds from the ceiling of the ballroom and glittering fish dangled from the net. Before dancing began to the music of Rus- kin, many couples enjoyed dinner in the Club dining room. The seniors returned to their for- mer state for one last frolic before joining the adult world. Little red wagons, skateboards, scooters, roller skates, Raggedy Anns, and water guns were some of the accoutrements the kids showed up with. They seemed to have very little interest in concentrating on their school work, but they enjoyed cre- ating enough hustle and bustle in the halls to make the day seem like .A ,X one long play-period. The class of 1978 ended the first twelve years of their formal educa- tion on lvlay 25 at the First Presbyte- rian Church. The Commencement Address was delivered by Dr. Leslie S. Wright, President of Samford University. The termination of six years at the Donoho School brought smiles to many and tears to afew. l OCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: The Class of 1978, The teachers and ard members prepare for their formal march, The kids play and ve a tea party in the Senior Lounge, George Connors signs in at the iper School from the Lower School.
