As the theme implied, the Junior-Senior Prom was truly An Affair to Remember by many. Prom-goers entered into an array of flowers which lined the sides and ceiling of the corridor, the entrance to the enchanting world of foun -tains and fantasy. Prom-goers danced to romantic music, and enjoyed refreshments at candlelit tables adorned with colorful tablecloths . The guests were served by fresh -man girls dressed in semi-formals . Climaxing the evening's activities was the crowning of Pennie Williams as the Queen of the 1970 Prom. Dan Prieshoff, Junior Class president, crowned the queen and presented each girl in the court with a gift. The Queen's throne was a rose-covered swing, suspended in a garden of flowers and fountains on either side. The after-prom dance at the Elwood Country Club was sponsored by the city's service clubs. Doorman Steve Mengelt greeted guests Kathy Low and Greg Cole as well as many others. The Queen and her court were Peggy Weismiller, Peggy Updegraff, Pennie Williams, Connie Parker, and Leatha Long.

September 26th marked the 1970 Homecoming. Rain cancelled what would have been the best parade ever, but did not stop a respectable game against the Alexandria Tigers . They held a 6 -point advantage over the Panthers. But the local team rallied in the second half with Don Powell's touchdown. Elwood failed to get the extra point, leaving the score 6--6 at the end. At halftime, minus the Panther Band providing background music due to the rain-soaked field, the crowning of the queen took place. The five queen candidates, Jenny Gough, LeAnn Harting, Janet Murphy, Cathy Richardson, and JoAnn VanWinkle, were presented. Miss LeAnn Harting was crowned by 1970 Queen Miss Sandy Fakes . Good tips to Bruce Ball from Coach Moore. Shivering, and waiting the final word, are Homecoming Queen hopefuls JoAnn, Cathy, Janet, LeAnn, Jenny, 1969 Queen Sandy, and escorts. 17
