Annual Junior-Senior Prpies Delightful Affair One of the most successful junior- seniors held in Greenville High in recent years was that of this year which took place Friday evening, May 8, in the school auditorium. For a week before the party the decorating committee, headed by Belva Harris, was busy transforming the large auditorium into a lovely garden. The lattice fence, rose en- twined, separated the tables which were scattered among the trees, from the dance floor, in the middle of which was an artificial lake and flower garden. The stage, with a back drop of a moonlit sky, was one of the most attractive nooks in the garden. Lanterns strung around the auditorium amid a profusion of span- ish moss gave a mellow light for the fun-makers. As the guests entered, corsages and festive caps were given to the girls and boys respectively. Then they were greeted by a receiving line com- posed of Helen Settle and Charles Clark, Jean Blount, Ernest Willard, Miss Corinna Mial and Mr. V. M. Mulholland, Bobby Baublitz and Harry Rountree, Marjorie Spivey and Clair Brown. Master of ceremonies, Clair Brown, introduced early in the evening Charles Clark, president of the jun- ior class, who welcomed the seniors and faculty members to the party, and in turn Ernest Willard, president of the senior class, responded to the welcome Dancing was enjoyed throughout the evening. Refreshments, consist- ing of punch sandwiches, and pea- nuts were served by a group of sophomore girls under the direction of Miss Jessie Schnopp. A brief floor show was staged by Ramona Staples, James Dudley Simpson and Dorothy Davenport. During the grand march sixteen prizes, donated by local merchants, were presented to those standing on lucky numbers. Committee chairmen in charge of assisting Miss Mial, faculty adviser, follow: Jane Smith, flowers, Eliza- beth Holliday, invitations, Ernestine Hobgood, refreshments, and Mary Lorraine Horne, entertainment. As- sisting Belva Harris on the decorat- ing committee were Betty Fleisch- man, Lillian Abee, Mary Woolard and Georgette Saied.
