JUNIORS AID IN PRODUCTION OF PROM Through the years, many traditions at Broome High School have been upheld by the junior class. Among these traditions is the preparation for the Ju- nior-Senior Prom. The juniors help make this annual event spectacular, through a series of carefully planned steps. Selling candy helps finance the decorations, entertainment and refresh- ments everyone enjoys that night. After the fund raising, the responsi- bility of leadership is seen through the formation of committees. Committees are responsible for making the prom a memorable and enjoyable event. The final day of preparation is on a Friday, the day of the prom. The decoration committee parts from school for the en- tire day to go to the Spartanburg Me- morial Auditorium to get everything ready. That day is spent doing major jobs as well as minor, and tedious ones. Such jobs include putting linen, pro- grams and candles on the tables, and setting up for the band. Finally, lunch time rolls around, and there is a short break to grab a bite to eat, then its back to work. Eventually three thirty arrives and everyone has to dash home to get themselves ready for the big night. The juniors especially ap- preciate the privilege of attending since this is the first time they can attend and also choose their escort. Even though the preparation for the prom includes hard work and concen- tration, the result is a time that will be remembered by all.

INTRODUCING THE SOPHOMORES Another adjustment that takes place is being careful not to overextend one's in- volvement in too many extracurricular ac- tivities. Broome High supplies a variety of organizations. Students who are engaged in more activities tend to have a broader perspective on the outlook of their new school life. After school activities may also be an important part of a sophomore’s year. This means Friday night football games, and being included in eating at the Pizza Inn to celebrate the night’s victory. Also, for some sophomores access to a car is the start of their dating years. And the feeling of independence grows. A new beginning is always more excit- ing than the same routine. The sophomore year is full of challenging events. There are many more subjects to choose from at Broome than at the junior high. Each new subject brings a whole new variety of learning experiences and accomplish- ments. With these new classes the unfamil- iar faces of teachers are introduced. Each sophomore must adapt to the individual personality of that instructor. Also, at the beginning of the year, sophomores rush to Find their classrooms. The seemingly un- ending halls bring terror as the tardy bell approaches. But upperclassmen relieve these feelings with helpful directions.
