The chondeliers, which Mr. Nichol and the Junior Shop class boys made of broken mirrors, was beautiful and the studded lighting effects created an incomparably beautiful Prom. The Queen, Barbara Thomas, who was chosen by the vote of the entire Student Body, was presented with a gorgeous bouquet of fresh flowers. She was crowned by Jim Taylor. Vice-President, since the President was a girl. Delicious refreshments were served. Hot dog and cake sales were given throughout the year under the supervision of their class advisor.
