Candle Light Romance; Prom 1976 “Pieces of April was an appropriate theme for Prom 1976 as it took place very early in the season — April 2. For the first time, the dance was held at the Holiday Inn. Although the can- dle-lit surroundings sparked an atmosphere of sofistication, the elaborate decorations of past years were missed and, as a result, future Proms will once again be held in the school gym. Under the direction of Mrs. Brandt and sponsored by the junior class as sort of goingaway gift for the seniors, the girls spent four months of planning and hard work and close to $1,000 to make. THE formal event of the school year at VHS a success. Over 120 couples attended the three- hour dance and swayed to the music of Felix”. For most couples, a late dinner and a party or two after the dance completed the magic of the evening and brought Prom 1976 to a close.

VHS’ers Get Around Each week day between 8:00 and 8:30 a m. students are seen coming to school. How do they get there? The modes of transportation are as varied as the students themselves. Some students walk or ride their bikes, others take the bus, and still others drive their own cars. Because of a slightly different bus schedule this year, first hour classes were started at 8:30 rather than the previous time of 8:25 to enable bus students to make it to their first classes on time. Most stu- dents — whether they rode a bus or not — like this idea since it allowed them to sleep five min- utes later each morning. But transpotation is not only important as a means of getting to school and leaving again at 3:20 p.m. It is also essential for almost every extra-curricular activity. From traveling to an away football game to “cruising the main drag,” transportation is a necessity for most VHS’ers. The special care given a new car or the up-keep on a used van promote pride in each owner and contribute to make various modes of transporta- tion status symbols as well as necessities. 16 TRANSPORTATION
