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.

Hannibal, Mrs. Savage, Fairy, Florence, and Jeffrey examine Mrs. Savage's daughters picture as Fairy exclaims, Oh, she's terribly ugly, lets Throw darts at her! This year, under the direction of Mrs. Barbara Harstad, two all-school plays were presented. The fall play, The Curious Savage, written by John Patrick, centered around the main character, Mrs. Ethel P. Savage portrayed by Jean Sommerville. After the death of her husband, Mrs. Savage,s family sent her to live in a home called 'cThe Clo- istersl' because they thought that she was mentally ill when she set aside a fund to help others realize their hopes and dreams. However, Ethel knew that the family's main objective was to obtain her ten million dollar estate. After finding a safe place for her money, Mrs. Savage told them she had buried it and allowed them to try every means possible to secure it. Various types of social mislits in the home, be- lieving in thejustice of her cause, conspired with her to get rid of Mrs. Savage's greedy family. Finally, in desperation, Ethel confessed to the true hiding place and took the money from her teddy bear's head, and the play was clirnaxed. Two performances were given-a matinee to the junior high and an evening performance on Satur- day, December 6. ll-School Plays Enable Talente Lily Belle and Samuel look on as Titus pleads to Mrs. Savage, Mother, please fell us where you hid 'our' money. 20 if 1,5
