,I ' 'ya' it-,Q , i Winning costumes were rewarded with dandy prizes. On November 13, pumpkins, cornstalks, and hay transformed Village High into Dogpatch, U.S.A. All the local Daisy Mae's rounded up their favorite Lil' Abner's and hauled ,em to the Hitching Post where Marryin' Sam fBob Miskowiecj resided. But if your marriage ran into a rocky road, relief was given by Toivo Kallas who acted as Divorcin' Dan, whose headquarters were at the Ditchinl Post. Dancing around the giant scarecrow to the tune of the latest toe tappin, music played by a local band, the Illusions, was a major pastime for the local Dog- patcher's. Later rejuvenation was made possible by good ol, apple cider donated byjunior class, who sponsored the dance. For a later remembrance, couples donned in dog- patch clothing posed for photographs. Unique and interesting costumes merited a contest which was won by Diane Trulson and Gary. At 11:30 with a harvest moon setting, the spell was broken, and dogpatch became a memory once again.

Memorable, Exciting Night for All On May 1, 1965, from 8:30 P.M. to 11:30 P.M., the North Star Ballroom in the Student Center on the St. Paul Campus was transformed into a pari- sian garden for the annual Village High Prom. The gala event took place under the theme of Paris Enchante. Sweet, flowing music was played by Willy Petersonls band as couples danced. A grand march marked the beginning of the dance. It was led by the Junior Class president and his date. The prom was held for the seniors and spon- sored by the Junior Class. Expenses for the prom were raised by various projects such as car wash- ings and slave days. Arrangements for the dance were made at a Junior Class meeting held earlier in the year. Com- mittees were set up and chairmen appointed to in- sure a successful dance. Committee heads were: decorations, jill Dauphinee, publicity, Dottie Petersen, refreshments, Ginny Nelson, tickets, Nancy Bartlett, placement, Lesley Perrin, enter- tainment, Bill O'Rourke, and invitations, Barb Skovran. Leading the grand march with their dates are the Junior and Senior class presidents. 1' 1, 'C' it gigg tj, f . 19
