Uibe iluninr from At first you said, Oh, heck. It will be just like any other dance. Later you said, It doesn't matter to me whether or not I go? But you did go, and when nine o'clock on Friday, April the 30th rolled around you got that awful sinking feeling ---- this was your last Pram, the last time you would be all together as a class ---- you realize how much you are going to miss it all, so you'll always remember this night - your last Junior Prom. Then at last, you arrived. Everything portrayed excitement:- frilly skirts, sweet music, and Oh! yes - tuxedos. Maybe this was your last Program Dance, and you found it nice to be dancing with all your different classmates. The thme just seemed to fly ..... first dance .... . second dance ..... third, fourth, fifth, and then intenmission. The food looked so good, but you wanted to be dignified and not eat too much -- just enough. Back dancing --- you find yourself smiling and saying 'hello' to this one and that one, but never really noticing anything much ex- cept that nYou'd Be So Nice To Come Home Ton never sounded quite so lovely before. Then came the realization that it was over, all all over - already Hume in bed you rememberedg you'll always remember --- searching for the balloon with your name on itg surprise program partners, Joe's leading the Grand Marchg the chummy atmosphereg grape punch and cookiesg orchestra dedicationsg and the JUNIORS -- for giving us the best Pram in the World. We'll always remember. JCKZKQ ps f 5 -' 45 H 4b an - 1. ,liifl ' M IL U -Fat 1 N L M I -N 'Nr K i rg .. .Lf 'gl i ' f ,t J ' I t 1 A 1, X gn.j? a , N! gl Abil E ' Y Rfanl, ,X
