‘The First Time’ For The first time since East- side was built 12 years ago, the annual Junior-Senior Prom was held off campus. This year the elegant Auburn-Cord-Duesen- berg Museum in Auburn was the site for the formal evening. The theme—The First Time—a song by Styx, was appropriate be- cause of the move and other changes the class of 1982 had made. Senior Betty Welty and her date stroll arm in arm in front of the Auburn-Cord-Due- senberg Museum, site of the Jr.-Sr. Prom. Approximately 280 students attended the annual event. Smile! Brazilian exchange student Eduarda Du Pereira and her date Nick Gollmer get their photograph taken at the prom! The majority of prom goers had their pic- ture taken. Upon arrival at 7 p.m., the par- ticipants dined buffet-style in the main showroom of the former Au- burn Automobile Company. Later, the Amazing Mendoza performed feats of mental trickery for the crowd of 280. Students, faculty, and guests danced to the music of Middle of the Road, until the King and Queen ceremony. Juniors Jana Armstrong and Mike Casebere were crowned prom queen and king. In the court were, Diane Sipe, Kim Mullett, Sandy Hantz, RoEnna Zerkle, Greg Myers, Steve Upp, Randy Young and Stan Kurtz. 1980 King and Queen Lynn Reinhart and Jenny Haines passed on their crowns to the juniors who reigned over the prom until its end at 1 a.m. 16 Prom
