STUDENT LIFE What can be lovlier than a day in springtime? A likely candidate is a springtime twilight. The warmth of the nights, scented by the sweet- ness of newly awakened flowers affect every physical sense and the indescribable inner senses in human awareness. An extra special night in spring was that of the Jr.-Sr. Prom. During the few hours of the prom the atmosphere was especially warmed by the smiles of friendship and romance. The air was sweetened not only by the perfumed and be- flowered belles but also through the unified feelings of mirth and happi- ness. A high school gym transformed into a beautiful ballroom became the perfect container for the many beau- tiful people who entered, and the wonderful memories that they created. The theme of the prom “We May Never Pass This Way Again” was truly fitting because those lovely special moments of happiness on that special night in spring may never be captured again.
