An Affair to Remember All the weeks of hard work by the com- mittee members were well rewarded as they and their classmates arrived at the Martinsville Inn to be transported to an- other world. Dreamy music provided by Connie Tarentino enhanced the unreal quality of the atmosphere, as couples floated over the dance floor. Dinner dis- pelled the strangeness and restored com- raderie as friends gathered to chat with members of the faculty and chaperones. The older set asserted that they enjoyed the dance as much as anyone present. However. the night drew too quickly to a close, and each couple departed con- vinced that the Junior-Senior Prom was indeed An Affair to Remember. it Y . . .

Another Juliet, beaming Ellen Herrmann appreciates admiring glances from her Romeo, John Rudolph, before entering ballroom. Christine Douglas and escort Roy Herbst have eyes only for each other as they dance to A Time for Us. Senior Ball December - the world outside contrasted sharply with the atmosphere within the Somer- ville Inn. Held for the first time at the site of the 1968 Junior-Senior Prom, the Senior Ball came into focus. After months of prep- aration by members of the committee and anxious seniors, the long-awaited twenty-ninth arrived. Couples conversed quietly over din- ner and later filled the dance floor. Willing fac- ulty members assumed one more role as they looked on from the chaperones' table. Later, students and oldsters alike were caught up in hilarious renditions of the handkerchief dance from ZORBA THE GREEK, Immaculata's version of the f'Alley Cat, and golden oldies such as uthe twist,', the monkeyf' and 'fthe frug. At that point teachers graciously con- ceded the floor to the younger set, who thor- t oughly enjoyed a more modern style of music. Committee members Nancilee Yannetta, Robert Dubrowski, Mary Mattel, Jane Davis, Valer1'e Santelli, Ellen Herrmann, and Sharon Panzera smile contentedly at incoming couples.
