TIMGLGSS MGMORI€S WGR£ The old gym was alive on the night of November 7, 1981 as the FFA Sweetheart Dance became a reality. “Time In A Bottle’’ was the theme and the decorations included a mural of a grandfather clock in a bottle and streamers of various different colors. Music was supplied by Steve Allan and his Southern Illinois Audio Sound and Lite Show. As the night grew older the anxiety of the candidates grew greater; until the new Sweetheart and Sister were announced. The evening came to a close with the dance floor filled with couples deeply embraced in each other's arms. (Upper Right) Mr. Petrowich had his annual dance with the Sweetheart candidates.
