cool and drippy Just before the first day of spring, the Junior-Senior Prom drew the admiration of the school for its unusual red-and- black color scheme, which fitted the Gay Nineties atmosphere. Street lamps were made of iron pipe and wired for electric lampsg a chandelier began with a wagon wheel and had lamp sockets welded to it. Table lights be- gan with tuna fish cans painted black. Dozens of lamp chim- neys created an old-fashioned effect. Access to the floor was by way of the stage, down a red- carpeted stairway, at the foot of which President Ernesto Lopez personally greeted guests. Before and after this event, the school year was in the fifth six weeksg and Easter vacation would span the end of March and the first of April. Irene Lopez emerges from arch in Grand March.
