We’ve Got The Look! In 1984 they hit the halls as the new Fresh men of Port Huron High “Freshman Kill Day” was a phrase which struck terror into their hearts. Frightened and confused, they struggled to get to their classes not knowing what the outcome would be. For Homecoming that year the freshman class built the float of Chicken McNuggets, which came in third place. Mrs. Landon and Mr. Bachler were the sponsors. During the Sophomore year, they adjusted better to the school and were relieved because they weren’t fresh- men anymore. Their sponsors were Mr. Kraft and Mr. Bachler. That year they built the Count, from Sesame Street. The float came in fourth place. The junior year started out with a bang. Their class be- came more involved in activ- ities. The theme for Home- coming was Water Wonder- land. The junior class float whaled over everyone elses. The float was a whale and it took first place. The spon- sors were Mr. Bachler and Mr. Kraft. Now as seniors they were the dominant class of the school. The float was Pinocchio which came in first place. The sponsors were Mr. Kraft and Mr. Bachler. They looked back through their eyes and remembered the projects they did, the friends they made and the memories they will treasure. They are trying to see what the future now has in store for them.

I i Prom Gets the Gowns, tuxedos, corsages, and limousines were a few of the main ingre- dients that mixed together to create the perfect ‘piece of cake’ for the Prom for the class of 1987. The Prom was held on June 6, 1987 at the St. Clair County Community College. Couples be-bopped to the strains of sweet music played by D.J. Jack DiGuiseppe. Others gathered to await their moment before the cam- era for that perfect memory — the picture. Before Prom, expensive restaurants were invaded by couples to have dinner before dancing the night away. To dine at some restaurants, such as Charlie’s or the River Crab, the prom couples had to make reservations for that special dinner. After dinner the next stop was to the dance. There were many means of transportation. In search of the fanciest vehicles possible, students borrowed family cars, vans, or rented limousines. One aspect about Prom that students liked was dressing up and getting com- pliments. Fashion conscious female dancers dressed for a splendid night on the town in evening finery. The search for the dress took many girls weeks. As Mickey Morris said, “I loved all the dresses and getting compliments on my dress. Prom is one of the many highlights during the four years of high school; however, it can be a costly tradition. Couples spent up to $275 for the evening. Seniors deserve Prom, stat- ed Lester Killion. Going to expensive restaurants, dressing in formals and re- ceiving compliments are just various reasons why we still keep Prom as a tradition. Eye
