294 Prom night: Montezuma's revenge? There almost seemed to be a jinx on the prom. Many dates did not get along with each other. Some felt that because the guys were asking the girls so early, by the time the prom was here many would have had a better time with someone else. Other problems included ones like Lynn Romine and her date Paul Hinson. They wrecked their limousine. Deltliece Bishop's little bo-peep dress hoop slip came off and was piled unceremoniously in the ladies room. Girls had a hard time dancing in high heels. Linda Janacek and Scott Smith decided to wear tennis shoes with dress and tux. Neither bothered with socks. When the Country and Western band, the Outcasts played, not very many people knew how to dance to it. But when the DJ played New Wave music the dance floor was one big crowd of people jumping up and down swinging their arms around. All the problems some people had could be contrasted with the many hap- py couples seated with friends, or as in Jill Harrison's case, with parents. For them, the romantic Mexican Colonial setting of La Hacienda de los Morales was the perfect backdrop to the red roses and wine glasses, favors at every place setting. Few could resist being tempted by mounds of shrimp, kebobs and hors d'oeuvres and the all-night Coke bars. There was laughter and ex- citement and the fun of being dressed up to compensate for the jinx some experienced. -ns. as-. Sa. I 'ZS 'J i 1 3 i K D , .A 'Seo-Y X Q If A R. A.
