“How Deep Is The Ocean” Is The Theme Of Prom Presented By Juniors On the night of May 6, the Juniors and Seniors danced from 8:30 to 11:30 P.M. at the Prom in the school gym. After planning and working for several months, the Juniors, who were directed by Paulette Lowman, and Pat Tyson, had transformed the gym into an underwater paradise carrying out their theme of “How Deep is the Ocean”. Covering the walls were murals depicting King Neptune, Atlantis, skindivers, and other marine scenes. For the band platform, a sunken pirate ship was erected from which the band played. At the entrance to the gym stood Buddy Myers as King Nep tune, who an¬ nounced the arrival of the Senior couples, while Pam Albrecht, dressed as a mermaid, distributed programs. The music for the Prom was provided by The Kings of Soul, featuring the Creations. During a break in the dancing, the candidates for King and Queen of the Prom were announced. Fay Hudson and Morris Vaughn, who had previously been elect¬ ed by the members of the Senior Class, were then crowned. Morris Vaughn, King of the Prom, enjoys the company of mermaid Pam Albrecht.
