Several Elements A Combine To Create Memorable Qccasion uxedoes, dresses, flowers, bids, dinner, and a romantic night on the town. Where does it all tie in? Prom, of course! The Long and Winding Road was the 1977-78 prom. For the previous three years it was held at Michigan Shores Country Club. I think Michigan Shores is the most ideal place ever for prom, but the Orrington's fine. Everyone was ready for a change, said Mr. David Smith, director of student ac- tivities. Procedures for nominating the queen were handled dif- ferently. Every senior voted for two girls, and the top 21 were chosen. Fourteen girls were eliminated in the second voting, and the queen was chosen from among the seven finalists by the students at the Prom at 10:00 p.m. on prom night. The 1978 prom queen was Lisa Mason. Her attendants were Linda Melle and Lia Alexpoulos. The number of couples de- creased from 240 the previous year to 200. Smith feels this is due to the total cost of prom. Although the bids were only 515, prom night itself costs each couple about 5100. The band that entertained the couples was Show Biz. We're all alone and sur- rounded by other couples was the theme for the 1978 Turna- bout. The atmosphere of the half moon gym and the music by Bushwak also added to the dance, sponsored by the Girls' Letter Club and the Ti- tannaires. Turnabout Reverses Roles Glenbrook South girls got their turn to do the inviting and it was the boys' chance to wait around, hoping to be asked by their latest heart- throbs. The Senior Class elected the duo of Jedd Nabonsal and Chuck Gattone to be King and senior attendant respec- tively. Jedd and Chuck have been the only boys in their class elected to the Turnabout court during their four years at Glenbrook South. The oth- er attendants were Mark Ka- min and Bill Knapp, repre- senting the juniors, jim McCauley, representing the sophomores, and Robert Lo- pez representing the Fresh- man Class. The dance ran from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m. and had no prob- lems with disorderly conduct. The whole night was a suc- cess, concluded Mr. David Smith, student activities di- rector. Prom queen Lisa Mason and her at- tendants Linda Melle and Lia Alexo- poulos look like they are having an exceptional evening with their dates. Many seniors gather together for one last picture at Prom.
