They could have danced all night. Just You ' N ' Me After weeks of anticipation and planning, that special night finally came. April 21 was the date and the IP- PU ballroom was the place. Rainbow centerpieces and a fountain helped set the mood for this year ' s Junior- Senior Prom, ' Just You ' N ' Me. In the entrance of the ballroom there was a rainbow. Couples danced all night to the music of Abbacus, a band from Indianapolis. Finally, the moment everyone was waiting for had arrived — The Coronation of the court. 78 ' s prom king and queen, Minday Roberts and Larry Neher handed their titles down to Tina Henry and Jim Fitzgerald. The royal couple danced to the theme, ' Just You ' N ' Me. ' As the music continued the other couples joined in. The afterprom was held at George- town Bowling Lanes, where Junior ' s parents supplied plenty of food for the energetic couples. The following day was unseason- ably warm and some couples took advantage of the weather and headed for the lakes. The Billy Joel Concert was in town that evening and provided an end to a memorable weekend. 1 IKBSERi VwT T r W ' li m i } W ' J ' ' i y 1 Vi 1 ' 79 PROM ROYALTY: Peggy Wormcas- tie.

What ' s Happening? Ladies and Gentlemen. Welcome to Happening ' 79 ' ! Choir director Charles Henke kicked off this year ' s show, when he was abruptly inter- rupted by a loud boisterous quartet of characters out of a Carol Burnett sketch. Eunice, Ed, (Laura Mcllveen and Marc Todd), Mama (Sue Elsea) and Micky Hart (Doug King) added laughter and variety with their ' south- ern family ' acts. The majority of acts were songs, including the highlight of the eve- ning, the senior guys ' rendition of Jim Dandy. Continuing the line up of seniors were Cathy Sickafoose who sang I Will Survive and Barb Mas- terson who soloed with Don ' t Cry Out Loud. Beth Eraser along with foreign exchange student Ingrid Skjosvik, sang Sunshine. Vicki Blew dedicated her solo, He Ain ' t Heavy, He ' s My Brother, to the sen- ior class. Freshman Doug Norris played his guitar and sang to Leav- ing On a Jet Plane. A touch of class was added to the program by Ted Wilson when he played a solo on his saxophone. Happening, more or less, is a show which is basically for the seniors and run by the seniors. The emcee for the program was Steve Cheviron, who did a little Chuck Barris characteriza- tion, and Ron Forks who did his Steve Martin act. The big event of the night was the seniors weekend up-date fea- turing Ja ne (Dawn Lopshire) Curtain, and Chevey (Dave Jones) Chase. Adding a little spice to the skit was Susan Elsea ' s Rosanne Rosanna Danna. Blue Suede Shoes, an Elvis Pres- ley song, is performed by Jay Leo- nard.
