Close to 50 couples attended the dance and grooved to the music of Ice and also an intermission band by the name of Sunstorm. Vicky Rosier was chosen to be the 1972 Valentine's Oueen. Her atten- dants from each class were lVlary Hill, senior attendant, Angela Gilliam, junior attendant, Gay Cole, sophomore attendant, and Johnna Walworth, freshman attendant. A week before the dance, elections were held in homerooms. Ten girls were nominated by students and one girl from each class with the most votes became attendant. A runoff then took place between four girls from the senior class. The ballots were totaled and the girl with the most votes became queen and the runnerup was to be the senior class attendant. Ken Tyson congratulates Vicky Rosier with roses as she is crowned queen. 80 Rosier Selected To Reign as 1972
