 Harbor Lights” Senior A SWINGING dance tempo enraptured MIXED expressions comprise the Senior Ball greeting line. The jaunty decor created by the Senior class did justice to the Senior Ball theme of Harbor Lights, and helped to firmly embed the memories of that special night in the minds of the many couples who attended. Decorating the tables were checked tablecloths with wax-encrusted bottles on them serving as centerpieces. To entertain the group, accordionist Keith Bak-shas and the male double quartet were introduced by Gayle Pfaendler who shared the title of chairman with Sharon Suhr. Refreshments consisted of punch and cookies. Gala music of Jim Maphet’s band added to the evening's grandeur. 16

GPHS Talent Displayed GOING HILL-BILLY, Donna Doyon, sings “I Like Mountain Music.” ACTING AS DIRECTOR, Dave Paulus and his secretary, Jeannie Baker, chant as fellow players echo in the opening number of the 1 962 Talent Show. Towards the end of each year, the Senior classes found a need for a larger bank account. This results from Senior Banquet expenses. Always a money-making success, the Talent show saluted a variety of different talents. Making a two-night stand, the show entertained large audiences both nights. The show was built around the theme, On the Air. Start'rng with a scene with the script given on a beat built up the theme. The K-USA cameras brought the acts to the viewers, while the feminine, but capable, stage crew moved scenery. Candy was sold during the program. Each class participated and received a cut of the profits. After the breath-taking Limbo Dance, the station signed off with a finger-snapping finale. HIGHLIGHTING the show are Bruce Perry and Alan Barney as they present the daring limbo.” 3
