Scotty Lauder and his band played light-hearted, exotic music. The theme, Blue Hawaii, was nicely decorated with an erupting volcano on the stage, fish on the walls, a few palm trees, and a lighted punch bowl. The band was seated on a layered platform with poles to hold a fish net over the top. The dance was considered highly successful by all. BACCALAUREATE Rev. Leamon giving the message.

We sure have been a busy class. We started decorating for our Junior Carnival two weeks a head of time. The carnival was a great success and everyone en- joyed themselves. Our class contributed to the all school play, Here Comes Charlie , with seven Juniors participating in it. The decorations for our Junior Prom were completed by our efficient class in one evening and the afternoon of the Prom. We do not expect the rest of our year to be as busy, but hope to continue striving for a better school. William Lawson BUSY CLASS ! 25 JUNIOR CARNIVAL The annual Junior Carnival was held October 28, in the old gym. It ended an hour earlier than scheduled due to a sellout in nearly all booths. An auction quickly got rid of anything left. The total profit equaled $ 162. 50. Senior Booth--Dime Throw “Hi, there, Billy Dunn Pauline Aubin and Louis Lambert Telegraph Service--Freshmen Booth Senior--Janie Warrick Concessions--Junior Booth Mr. Elder, Jim Crabill, Judy Caughell, Ron Bergstrom and Margie Frye and Butch Hubert. JUNIOR On Saturday, December 9, the annual Junior Prom was presented by that class. The time for preparing decorations was lim- ited due to the daily use of the gym. The theme, “Three Coins in a Fountain , was carried out by using a fountain as the center attraction. The arriving couples were wel- comed by a rose arbor over the entrance. Trellaces of ivy provided a striking back- PROM ground for the Medford Fuller Orchestra which was engaged to play for the event. It was not an especially profitable occasion largely due to several experi- mentations: The dance was held in the new gym for the first time and it was an invitational affair. The general opinion was expressed as, 'A very nice and orderly dance.“ 26 JUNIOR SENIOR BANQUET APRIL 28 The Junior-Senior Banquet was pre- sented by the junior class for the graduating Seniors in the cafeteria pre- ceeding the Sen- ior Ball. The sophomore girls did a fine job of serving. The table cen- terpieces and food were superb; as were the entertain- ment. Mr. Thomas played his accordion and Mr. Nick- laus, the Sen- iors' advisor, revealed inter- esting facts about the Sen- iors.

The season results showed a 8-1 record. However, only two of these were league games. We defeated Elkton with a score of 14-0. The play off for District Champion- ship was then played off between the Yoncalla Eagles and the Cruisers. Yoncalla defeated us taking District Championship and placing us second. Although our record wasn't too good, we did have a very good line. Most of our yardage was made off tackle and around the end. 55 FRONT ROW: Jim Pinson, Dan Taylor, Denis Getchell, Coach Ray; Mike Sewell, Robert Kalb.

The members of the 1961-1962 Powers Cruisers basketball team can look back on this season with mixed feelings of accomplishment and disappointment. We split our Pre- league games with local A-2 schools by winning 4 and losing 4. We then went into our league schedule and won 9, lost 3, tying for the league championship. The highlight of our league games was our league victory over Yoncalla at Powers. The Cruisers team was bothered by injuries and illness in nearly all our loses. In the district tournament we beat Days Creek and Camas Valley before losing the championship game to Elkton for the right to go to state. I feel proud of what each boy did this year and wait with anticipation for next year.
