PROM HE Winter wonflerlancl of softly falling snow, the hasty last-minute details for that never-to-be-forgotten appearance which is a must, instillecl in us a magical feeling of unreality. For many, the transportation which hall been provirlecl to compensate for the atlverse clriving conditions was a catalyst for laughter, singing, and gaiety which were the earmarks of the Prom. The blissful, scintillating smiles, the swish of taffeta anfl crinoline evolving a mystical multi-coloration, createfl the unforgettable atmosphere of our prom. The soft music of Bill Coleman's orchestra provirlerl an en- chanting evening of entertainment. At 12:00 o'cloek the long-awaitefl dinner was serveel amid joyful exclamations at the finesse with which the repast was serverl. The miniature flrapes anfl the large picture windows, through which the snow-blanketetl lanclscape and the pale blue-green lights of the Tappan Zee bridge could be seen, and the softly illuminefl, spacious ballroom to the frothing fountain as a centerpiece sur- passerl even the most aesthetic taste.

5 1 if yy 1 r As the crisp, cool month of September ushered in the first signs of fall, it also ush- ered in the first days ol' school. Then came the new duties of president, John Troisig vcep, Jackie Sleightg secretary, Richard Schmidt: and treasurer, Barbara Bardari. 4'King Footballl' held a great deal of in- terest for the tribe with so many of its mem- bers like big ,lack Purdy, Tom Slater, and Don MDew Dropsw Smith playing on the team. Yvillie Terry, Bob Becker, and John Malaspina led the interest when basket- ball season rolled around, as did Richard Schmidt, Herb Tomkins, and Sam Herko during hockey season. During the ensuing winter months, Pat Balassone, Ray Kelly, and Nancy Oslund if found themselves likely candidates for per- sonality plus positions, while Barbara Gag- liarcli and Dave Zern gained wide approval as best-all-around contenders. The Christmas Dance presented by the tribe was an unfor- gettable experience. The huge evergreen cov- ered with silvery tinsel, rainbow colored halls, and red and green streamers captured the true atmosphere of this festive S0ilS0ll. Standing out far and above all else in the way of activities of the year was the prom. The cascade of lovely bedecked belles and gay young escorts, the soft music, and the dimmed lights all helped to create the mood that only dreams are made of. The Class of 758 has a great dcal to re- member ancl even more to look forward to. ' 1 W,
