Pyramids and Palm Trees Help Egyptian Lovers “Rock on the Nile” “No school Friday!” The Jun- iors missed a whole day of school to decorate. Their excitement dwindled as Mrs. Woodward re- minded then they could still be counted tardy, if they were late. Maury Hodgens, Gil Chason, and Mary Katherine Gregory don’l waste a second of the music, despite the heat of the Swano Club. Pizza and doughnuts boosted spirits as the Juniors built pyr- amids, drew heiroglyphics and dressed their mummy. Putting palm trees together was tough- er than expected. The guys used a minature gold pyramid for a glove as they played base- ball. Miss Terrie and Mr. Larry Benedict provided helping hands while building the giant walk through pyramid at the entrance into the prom. After dinner at the Silver Slipper or Steak ‘n’ Ale, couples arrived all decked out to have their pictures taken in front of the pyramid. They rocked to the sounds of the Deejay from At- lanta. The side porch was a pop- ular escape from the watchful eye of chaperones and the heat. Students and their dates were treated to a breakfast at the Flournoy’s. By that time their at- tire had changed somewhat. The boys loosened their ties, and the girls shed pantyhose, shoes, and crinolines. The night ended early in the morning, but the magic didn’t. Visions of pyramids, palm trees, and a mummy helped students to still ‘Rock on the Nile’. Giving a palm tree the final trimmings. Angel Whidon and Jennifer Ammons add an air of the desert sands to the evening on the Nile. Cooling off on the porch, Tina Shephard. Tom Bauldree, Brad McCown, and Heidi Pickels catch their breath after hours of dancing to the beat of Egyptian Lover Assisting Amy Benedict, Jason Arnold, and Gil Chason in wrapping Mona the mummy , Mrs. Ford tears the sheets for a per ect fit.
