And the beautiful Hyatt Regency — would it be finished in time for over 100 Reagan students to dance in the Texas Ballroom. ' These questions were answered as the sun went down on the night of April 24, and the ladies and gentlemen (Reagan ' s juniors and seniors) dressed in elegant for- mals and tuxedos. For the seniors, the theme was perfect: Just Once would the night of their senior prom occur. And for the juniors who had prepared for a hopefully wonderful eve- ning for so long, the prom pleased a lot of people and all of our high hopes came off, commented Faith Stone, a Junior Council member. The dance floor was described as crowded, it was never bare; Juniors and seniors danced from 8 pm until 12 mid- night to a variety of music played by the Deja Vu disc jockeys. When asked w hat the most memorable part of the evening was, seniors Leon Smith and Jeannette Spinelli agreed that the Hyatt Regency was the greatest — very sophisticated. As the evening drew closer to the end, as shoes were removed, and feet were tiring, Deja Vu announced the last song. For some, this was only the beginning of a long evening — and for others the prom was over and locked away in their memories forever. Catching a tittle romance between dances, De- neen Hill and Ernest Brown kiss lust Once. Debra Coley and Tony Roberts drink punch from the souvenir champagne glasses. Andy Atkins, Becky Buck and their dales slow dance during the last slow song of the evening.

VIOLA MORSE voe.oha KEVIN MULROY New OrleanoS was their goal Imagine 40 Reagan seniors roaming the streets of the Bayou City — New Orleans — drinking and having the times of their lives. New Orleans was the destination of the Senior Class club for 1982. The Senior club started working toward this goal when school began. Each student was on their own, stated Gretchen Polnac, club sponsor. X ' hat she meant was, as each stu- dent contributed to a fund raiser, the money was decreasing their total cost. Among these fund raisers were two in- ventories at Fashion Conspiracy and Scar- boroughs Department Stores. Another big profit was selling M M ' s throughout the campus. I felt I was work- ing for myself and getting closer to being able to go to New Orleans, said Risa Cervelli, senior. Each of the members was issued a case of sixty boxes and made S 12.50 profit off of each case, which went toward their cost. New Orleans was their goal and if it meant work, the members and officers of the club were willing and ready. Organiz- ing and planning, the senior class officers were: Elliott Hill, president; Susan Becker, vice president; Denise Maxwell, secretary; and Beth Benge, treasurer. The club had approximately 35 members who diligently attended the meetings on club day. Also, special meetings were called as the trip got closer, to make specific plans for the trip and of course to turn in the money they all seemed to keep owing. These meetings were described as boring, an obligation, yet also very informative. After a Senior club meeting, Patty Krizan and Buddy Hughes leave with satisfaction, ready for the New Orleans trip.
