Ninety-three Seniors of 1974 Strive to Reach Set Goals To Make Final Year Successful Got spirit? . . . Let’s hear it! In their very best duds, the senior class proved that they've got that jiving spirit. The student lounge” became popular among the seniors as it gave them a place to get together during free periods. Being a senior holds many very special moments, espe cially for this Class of '74. The senior class had what it took to back their team during the pre-sectional days. They had the taste of a sectional vic- tory. It HAD to be, this would be their final year. They went to the games with all the enthusiasm they had and proved that you could lose, yet still win. The cry for a student lounge was heard as the senior class drastically searched for a place to prop up their feet after a hard day. That little ol corner by the popcorn machine was just fine. After all is done, it hurts to leave you, Forest Park. We've had some real fine times, but it's time to go. Graduation seems so final, but we'll be seeing you around, because we know that you will always be a big part of us. 17

Mood Is Set by Decorations and Guests As “Colour My World Good friends, good music, and good conversation added to the festive atmosphere of the 1974 Junior-Senior Prom, Colour My World. Colour My World was the theme chosen by the junior class for the 1974 Junior-Senior Prom. Many hours of hard work were spent by the class of '75 to make sure that this prom night would become a reality. Once again, the St. Anthony Community Center served as the setting for this annual event. Forest Park students, faculty, administration and their dates arrived at the prom with feelings of anxiety and expectat- ions of treasured dreams. For many, this evening was a night to be remembered forever. The walls and ceiling were covered with blue, pink, lilac, green and yellow crepe paper. The main attraction was the traditional fountain amidst a garden of flowers and greenery. A huge, colorful globe was hung in the center of the room directly above the fountain. Candlelight, and music by One Fine Morning , set the scene for the enchanting evening. The 1974 Prom King and Queen were announced and crow- ned by juniors Randy Vaal and Pat Fritz. Nancy Remke was crowned Queen and Gary Seger was the King. After being crowned, the band dedicated the prom song Colour My World to the reigning King and Queen of the 1974 prom. The faces of the chaperones and guests were evidence that the beauty of the evening was shared by everyone. Dancing to the romantic music and cherishing those unfor- gettable prom moments will remain a treasure in their hearts forever.
