Q 1 S5529 PROM DANCE COMMITTEES Debbie, Denny, Soupy, Lou, Dave, and Joan seem on the verge of a spirited Prom idea. Last fall, with a fine show of spirit, the Prom Com- mittee for 1962 began its planning for the all-impor- tant night. Chairman Debbie Anglim and Co-Chair- men Dennie Allen and Bob Campbell, with the help of senior-class advisor Donahue, organized the com- mittee into sub-committees and the Prom was on its way! The date was set, the favors were chosen and, in spite of much coaxing, were kept a secret, the pro- grams were planned and printed, and the invitations were sent out to the senior class and its guests. After the last-minute preparations of arranging for the flow- ers and for the roast beef or turkey dinners, the Prom was ready. The gay couples made their way on May 25, 1962 to the beautiful King Phillip Ballroom for a long-to-be remembered evening of dancing, dining, and enjoyment. While the prom committee was busy with its prep- arations, the dance committees were working to help finance the Prom. The Senior Class held three record hops: the Gridiron Gallop, the Skid-Hop, and the Ber- muda Hop. For each of these, the dance committees, headed by our class oflicers, had to make decorations and put them up, sell tickets, and volunteer for admis- sion and refreshment duty. They plunged in with gusto and made our dances not only financially successful but also gaily festive. 4

'i fi -21 SKETCH A stroke of the brush makes all the difference in the world to the masterpieces of Sandee, Jan, and Mary. In the artistic setting of 401, Belle starts a rough sketch of a new mural. Thanks are in order for many artistic decora- tions which brightened up North and raised its spirit this year. The creators of the murals, fig- ures, and posters seen around North are the mem- bers of the Sketch Club. Under the direction of Miss Sawitsky, the club decorated the Christmas and Easter assemblies and brightened up the tro- phy cases and Mr. King's oflice with eye-catching displays. It also helped outside the school by pro- viding posters and displays for organizations such as the Quincy Teachers Association. Thus when anything artistic was needed to add a festive air to a function or to a display, the Sketch Club wil- lingly and skillfully did the job and made this year a colorful and decorative one. 18
