“Some Enchanted Evening”, theme of the Prom presented by the class of 1966, saw the gymnasium transformed into a lovely moonlit garden scene. This one evening in May climaxed weeks of diligent effort on the part of Natalie Westbrook — General Chairman; Debby Brown — Decorations Chairman and the other committee members. While all generally agreed that “Some Enchanted Evening” was a tremendous success, and enjoyable to those who attended, it is important to recognize that the growth of the individual and his development of a sense of responsibility are perhaps the most significant aspects to emerge from working on a prom. Marilyn Higbee, Mike Dean, Sue Nummer, and Norman Seaman prefer to sit this dance out. Stars and clouds transform the gym into a lovely ballroom.

At IHS. nearly everyone can find a club suitable to his interests. These organizations serve a dual purpose. Not only do they teach students to co-operate with others, but also afford the satisfaction of working towards a particular goal with others having the same interests. In joining clubs, most of the students look to the future. They choose from: F.T.A., Future Scientists of America, Future Farmers, Future Homemakers, and Future Nurses. Some who liked to write found themselves busily preparing stories for the Spotlight, while others worked late nights to complete the 1966 IONIAN. Others found their forte in the newly formed Literature Club which met one night a week to analyze great works of literature. The National Honor Society, in its fourth year at IHS, continued to build its membership to serve the school. Another service organization is the Key Club, which has been very active. In short, those who participated actively in extracurricular organizations gained new friends and a satisfying sense of involvement in school activities. 24
