in — m a The music enhanced the atmosphere. “Dust In The Wind” was the theme of the 1977-1978 Junior-Senior Prom, which was held in Port Huron at the St. Clair County Community College, on Saturday May 13. “Infinity” was the band that provided the music that every- one enjoyed. The hall was decorated the evening before the Prom by the Junior Prom Staff. The senic artwork was origi- nally created by Theresa Lapensee and Kathy Kollinger. Although the Prom was scheduled to last from 8:00 p.m. until 1 1 :30 p.m., the band continued to play until 1 2:00 a.m. A photographer from H.A. Powell Studios was present to take portraits of the couples in front of the decorative foun- tain. The Junior class of 1978 is proud to be the first to have sponsored the first financially successful Prom. In conclusion, the Junior class gives many thanks to the sponsors who took the time to make the Prom such a success: Mr. and Mrs. Peter Facione, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kriesch, Mr. and Mrs. David Lesinski, Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Mrozinski, and Mr. and Mrs. A. Nowakowski. Paul, Terry, John, and Linda share a memorable event. Boggie Down! 6

HOW SENIORS SHOW TALENT Chuck Wahls. Phillis LeTarte. Kevin Billingsley. Beth Schott, and Steve her lines for her up-coming part. Cummings take a chance to watch the audience instead of the audience watching them. “How could I cause so much trouble— just because I wanted to go to the dance?” asks Hildegard Dolson. The answer was in “We Shook The Family Tree,” a play put on by the ’78 Seniors. In the lead role was Margie Lozen as Hildegard, a senior looking for a prom. John Jelinek played her father. As Mrs. Dolson was Penny Moran, a firm but understanding mother. Little sister Sally was Phillis LeTarte. Matt Dolan portrayed Hildegard’s big brother Bob, and Chuck Wahls was her younger brother Jimmy. Playing Paige was Dawn Connelly, the little girl who liked to play postman. Bob ' s heartthrob, Fllie May was played by Terri Tatton. Beth Schott, played Jill, Ellie May’s friend. Freddie Shermer, a boy that wears knickers, was played by Kevin Billingsley. Alan Meno was the dynamic Mr. Shermer, and Esther Anderson played Freddie’s mother. A bass in the bathtub, an electric wormer, beauty mud, a bur- gularized house, love letters mailed twice, and a missing pair of pants, all add up to “We Shook The Family Tree.” In charge of sound effects and lighting was Earl Baranowski. The play was directed by Ms. Zauner with the aid of student direc- tors Peggy Lozen and Renee Cunnings. During commercial rehearsal, Kevin Billingsley and John Jelinek fight over the use of the microphone. 8
