Romantic Odyssey Braving the challenge of new worlds We search the unknown for maturity. United, yet still alone, Begins our Romantic Odyssey . On April 26, 1969, the count-down to graduation began with the annual senior prom. Seniors dressed in formal attire and met at the Castaways in an atmos- phere of celestial beauty. Sculptured stars and delicate mobiles' helped to convey our theme 2001: A Space Odyssey. Highlighting an evening of dancing, socializing, and excellent food was the announcement of the Denerian court. Bill Randolph was crowned King and Betsy Ghiglia was our Queen. Then together, the royal couple led the traditional promenade as others followed.

Hypnotic Happenin On October 21, 1969, in reward for purchasing an activity card, Cavaliers were mystified by professional hypnotist George Sharp. Sixteen students were chosen to partake in the entertainment. Before the first as- sembly, the participants were taken to a room and programed with a hypnotic disc. At the ringing of three bells, Cavaliers crowded into the boys' gym to view the mental magician. By asking the 'participants to recall the hypnotic disc, lVlr. Sharp committed them to his will. Under his influence the students were unable to bend their arms or re- member their names. They were compelled to recall a funny incident, then visualize the saddest. lVlr. Sharp also had the girls pose as weight lifters and the boys as beautiful women. Using the power of suggestion, the students imagined themselves in a space ship talking in martian to a man from outer space. The climax came during the second assembly. lVlr. Sharp balanced himself on petite Jody Diamond, who was supported by two stools at her head and heels. The power of hypnosis made her rigid enough to support his weight. Awed by the psychic scene, Cavaliers seemed to agree that the assembly was an overwhelm- ing success!
