 X fiJiglcb Wtn cutd Roses At 7 p.m. the banquet started. Those attending, got a big charge out of the decorations drooping and falling. Luckily, we had Mr. Walker to go around and fix them. John Walker com- mented Prom was a lot of fun and a lot of work. As a sponsor this year I know I made a lot of mistakes, but I think everything turned out well. My most embarrassing moment was taping sagging dec- orations all the way through the banquet. After the banquet the prom servers performed their routine to Two More Bottles of Wine. The dance started at 9 p.m. — the group playing was April Monday. The band managed to arouse the crowd s interest by including some of the students. They found a new singing star who seemed to steal the show. After the dance, there was the movie at the Drive-In Theatre in Atlantic. The show was Harper Valley P.T.A. Teresa Eddy said I thought the movie was well-suited for the occasion and I was surprised at how many show up. Following the movie was the breakfast which the luniors moth- ers put on. It seemed to me that the mothers had the breakfast under control. It was really organized, said Cheryl Petersen. For some this was |ust the start of prom. The next afternoon both classes had their own individual picnics. The |unior s picnic was at Sprmgbrook and the senior's was at Lake Anita. By then everyone was so tuckered out that it was time to go home and revive so everyone could make it to school on Monday. E.H.S.’s students proved that they can conduct themselves respectfully, commented Linda Thompson. Everyone was impressed with our behavior. It was great hav- ing so many compliments given said Kay Anderson. Yes it is true. There is life after prom!!!’ prom 25
