Prom reflects country theme MHS’s annual junior-senior prom, May 9, was centered around the country-western theme, I Believe In You. The banquet, attended by 144 persons, was held in the base- ment of the Eastmoor United Methodist Church. Table center- pieces consisted of miniature peach carnations arranged in glass cowboy boot-shaped vases. Also contributing to the theme were miniature cowboy hats and straw baskets filled with nuts and assorted colored mints. Brown, yellow and goldenrod crepe paper, drapped and twisted from the ceiling and sides of the gym, gave the building a country- western atmosphere. The main attraction was a water wheel accented by straw bales, large stones, barrels and greenery. The wheel was con- structed by Jeff Harris. Wearing their tuxedos and for- mals, the students danced to the music of Coyote.” Junior Class sponsors, Mr. Paul Lange and Mr. Larry Buller, coordinated the planning and details of the prom. TOP: Juniors Tom Schaffer and Melissa Robinson take time out from ABOVE: Although It was dreary outside, spirits were high inside the gym dancing to have their picture taken beside the picturesque water wheel, as students danced to the music of Coyote. 12
