Dan { 24 ) The Oak Leaf Junior-Senior Prom, 1942 The annual Junior-Senior class night was held on Friday night. May 8th, in the gymnasium of the high school. This year, due to the wartime emphasis, a prom was held instead of the traditional banquet. The excess money was used for the purchase of War Bonds for the school. .A. patriotic theme was carried out in the decorations, refreshments and the program. The decorations consisted of red, white and blue paper streamers sus- pended from the center of the gymnasium in a canopy effect. Shields of red, white and blue and American flags contributed to the patriotic atmosphere. The floor show was the main attraction of the evening and proved very entertaining. John Long, president of the Junior Class, presided, introducing the following attractions: Solo — “. ngels of Mercy” Marian Wardrep Solo — “Battle Hymn of the Republic” Lynn Bartlett Musical Reading — “Stars Through the Perilous Night” Georgia Lee Cook Solo — “Johnny Doughboy Met a Rose in Ireland” Mary Locis Disney Solo — “Don’t Sit Under the .Apple Tree with .Anyone Else but Me” Loltse Farmer The finale of the floor show consisted of a flag-dance routine by uniformed “Miss America” and “L’ncle Sam.” The Prom was brought to a close with the serving of refreshments.
