Flowers Create Setting for Winter Dance, Prom WHIRLING TO THE SOFT MUSIC of the Ronnie Rodgers Orchestra, MHS Governors glided through an evening of bliss. Striving to support the two Vietnamese Governors, Be and Trung, the MHS Government Club sponsored the Winter Dance, “Cupid’s Concerto.” Held on February 12 at the Boilermaker’s Hall, the dance raised $145. Changed from formal to casual, the dance featured a king and queen from each of the four classes. At the Government Club assembly the final royal couple was chosen from the four elected at the dance. Government Club officers presided as officials for a dance contest. Winners were awarded popular records for their talents. “While Hearts Are Young,” Morton’s 1966 Junior- Senior Prom, provided for many Morton Governors an evening long to be remembered. At the largest social event of the year, students momentarily forgot textbooks and homework as they glided across the floor to the music of the Ronnie Rodgers Orchestra. The evening of April 29 found the Dorchester Inn filled with soft music, colorful decorations and fragrant flowers. The After-Prom Party, also held at the Dorchester Inn provided a full-course meal and entertainment by Wes Harrison, the sound effects man, and Eddie Burnette and Yvette, a magical act. Planned by the junior parents, the party also offered those who attended the Prom an op¬ portunity to dance to the music of the Gents, a local band providing promgoers music with a fast tempo. PROMS ARE NOT ALWAYS slow music and romantic moods; Governors also exhibit popular dancing skills at the After Prom Party.

Seniors End Careers as High School Students with Addressing the 1966 graduating class, Mr. R. Moore- head, guest speaker at the Senior-Faculty Banquet, told of the many perils and faults of love. Morton seniors and faculty members, numbering 260, gathered at Mama Puntillo’s Restaurant in Highland for the banquet. Leav¬ ing an array of relics and good wishes to future graduat¬ ing classes, the seniors drafted the 1966 Class Will. The Class Prophecy, also written by the seniors, predicted their occupations in 1976. The Citations, a local band, provided entertainment with popular music before and after the banquet. Some seniors stayed to dance while others departed for home or parties. Seniors donned clothing styles ranging from one ex¬ treme to the other during Senior Week. Celebrating Kindergarten Day, seniors wore cut-off pants, short skirts, and decorated shirts, as well as suspenders and knee socks. To complement their attire, seniors sported eyebrow-pencil freckles and pony tails. Shades and Ber¬ muda Day found the class of 1966 hiding behind sun¬ glasses and wearing summer clothes. On Wednesday, seniors wore their senior cords for the last time. The class of 1966 celebrated their final day of school by at¬ tending the Senior Awards assembly where they re¬ ceived special awards for their four years at Morton and scholarships from various universities. They also dressed for the day by wearing special finery including heels, fancy party dresses, suits, ties and white shirts. 20
