Puttin’ on the Ritz As in the years past, the juniors raised money by selling mums at homecoming. With all the hard work still lying ahead, the planning for the banquet on May 12 began. As in the years past, the theme was a big secret, but as in the years past, Puttin' on the Ritz” leaked out. On May 12, guys could be seen picking up tuxes, and gals could be seen uptown doing last minute shopping. Then it was off to the Fair Building where some of the juniors’ dads parked cars for owners. This reminded the ladies and gentlemen of a very fine restuarant. I don’t think I trust them driving my car,” said Dewayne Moneypenny. Flashing lights drew couples to Mr. Friesen’s camera taking photographs for souvenirs. ’Mrs. Nancy Winn, Mr. Ed Winn,” each name was sounded as Charley Owens, Ronda Cunningham or Tracy Graham announced names, and servers escorted those in attendance to a table. Party poppers, hats, cans, and many other ob- jects were part of the table decor that amused guests. After a time of dinner conversation, Lori Cravens, Gina Quiring, Jean Katzung, and Shel- ly Wanzer started the ball rolling when they were first in line at the salad bar. While the line grew. Heath Yarbrough, Allen Sandefur, and others swiped party poppers pulling the strings to frighten the girls. Waiters continued to escort teachers and students to the food line catered by Libby’s. Tracy Graham's welcome began the program consisting of photos of juniors and seniors with amusing captions. The Banquet King and Queen contest was a first with Mary Claborn, Duane Frerichs, Janie Edwards, Eddie Winn, Stan Shewey, and Sandy Stepp as contestants. Janie Edwards and Eddie Winn reigned as Banquet King and Queen. For another first, participants enjoyed ban- quet glasses as a table accent and favors. Balloons, lights, and stars also served seniors in 'Puttin' on the Ritz.” GOSSIP AND MORE GOSSIP Tammy Bowlware tells Molly Edwards some good gossip as they sit at the head table.
