One hundred lifty starry-eyed couples danced to the music of the Eddie Holmes Orchestra in a dream-like setting of Fantasyland. The decorations which were designed by Mary Ruth were striking for their beauty and originality. At the entrance there was a pond with a misty falls. Over this a bridge was suspended where couples could pose for pictures. Shrub- bery, small trees and flowers, elves, and animals surrounded the pond. Across the gym a large castle loomed in a cloudy mist. Small tables trimmed with white paper and decorated with fresh bouquets of such lovely spring flowers as lilacs, irises, snowballs, tulips, peonies, and pink honeysuckle dotted the floor. Willow trees were placed about the gym to heighten the outdoor atmosphere. Early in the evening Joyce Moran was chosen Prom Queen. She was presented with a crown by Student Council President, Barry Price. Then she and her escort, Charles Johnson led the next dance. Joyce reigned from a throne bedecked with flowers and pixies. Every- one agreed the queen was lovely, the setting romantic, and the music beautiful. ff' I f H V 'M .:,j f 5' 'X ,, X Q, xx , I P Ax! x XX-1 . 5 l 'mee K ,sf rc Barry Price presents Joyce Moran ' with a crown as Charlie Johnson watches proudly. 0... all E3 ii A, ,-,k .
