Senior Denise Garcia enjoys polite con- versation with her date in a romantic prom setting in the decorated ballroom. Prom goers Amy McClure, Max Melchi, seniors, and Mike Post, junior, move to the toe-tapping square dance music. Dancers remember prom 'Always and Forever' Students shed their casual clothes and latched on to tuxedos and formal dresses. Flowers were bought and hair was styled as stu- dents prepared for the 1979 Jun- ior-Senior Prom. Couples, perfectly matched in color, after dinner, headed toward the ballroom at Indiana-Purdue and the music of Top Flight. The ballroom was decorated in a garden-like style, and chaper- ones and student servers greeted couples as they entered onto the dance floor. Music ranged from the traditional slow dance to the ever-popular disco tunes. To get away from the ordinary styles of dancing, some sguare dancing was added to the evening. After the prom, most of the cou- ples changed attire and made their way to the Thunderbird Lodge for the after-prom. Radio station WLYV provided the sound system for the after-prom as cou- ples danced themselves into the early hours of the morning. The hours of dancing began to take their toll; the Archers began to slow down as the after-prom neared its 3:30 a.m. deadline. As the end of the after-prom came around, many tired couples left for home and maybe an early morning breakfast. The times and feelings of the prom for students are so unique they can be summed up in the prom theme, Always and For- ever. 8 Prom
