The 1976 graduating class of Mercer County High decided to combine the traditional Baccalaureate service and commencement exercises into one ceremony, which took place on Wednesday, June 2nd. Despite the prac- tice, when graduation night finally arrived, most seniors, like Donnie Hat- ter and Paul Proctor, were caught up in the confusion and excitement of the occasion. However, with the assistance of ushers from the junior class, such as Diana Britton and Bill Staples, each senior knew exactly how to march in and where to sit when the long-awaited time arrived. Larry Rigsby started the program with the invocation. Trying very hard to hold back the tears, Mary Ann Meaux recited her poem entitled Senior’s Fare- well. After delivering her Valedictorian address, Faith Burns happily received from Mr. King the diploma she so richly deserved. Accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Gay O'Banion, the Mercer County High Girls' Octet sang May You Always and The Halls of Ivy. The graduation address was delivered by the pastor of the Salvisa Baptist Church, Reverend Larry Koch, who was familiar to the senior class both as a substitute teacher and bus driver. 26

The Junior-Senior Prom was held at the Elementary School's multi-purpose room this year. Everything went very well. Shir- ley Tate was crowned Prom Queen by last year’s Queen, Cindy Caton. Queen Shirley Tate and King Billy Robinson were pre- sented with gifts. Other Queen Candidates were Nancy Prewitt, Robin Jackson, Mary Ann Meaux, and Debbie McGuire. Abra- ham Rush presented lively music to which the audience promptly responded. Some couples, such as Linda Claunch and Terry Sallee, enjoyed just listening, while others got down and boogied. 25
