STARLIGHT SERENADE is a port of the vivid memory always to be recalled by the Senior Class of '59, THAT LONG AWAITED MOMENT of the evening arrives when Coach Dandy crowns Ann Marie Mara and John Eberhard, queen and king of Starlight Serenade. From the very moment the news was announced the entire class seemed to be in a turmoil. Over the loud speaker was heard the constant reminder Don't forget the senior formal -as if anyone could! Time seemed to drag so slowly as the students planned for the big night. Afternoon preparations found the girls patiently fussing over their lovely gowns, and the boys ner- vously trying on their tuxedos. ln every house ei hub- bub of excitement prevailed, Finally, evening arrived, and with it, the handsome gentleman astride the charging steed-well anyway in a sleek auto ap- proached her house, then nervously rang the door- bell, and finally received the radiant smile of his charming miss when he presented to her that precious corsage. The gym, with flowered arbors marking the en- trance, glowed with a heavenly aura. Butterflies hovered low over the tables and snuggled close to sparkling twigs. Palm trees lined the dance floor and glistening stars filled the room. The music enveloped the couples, who seemed to be floating on a cloud of billowy softness. A recollection that will always remain is one of this unbelievable fantasia of loveli- ness.
