THIS IS THE TIME Hopefully, those who ' prommed it in 1987 found the evening the time to remember. Held on May 2 at the ACC Concorse, the Junior Senior Prom had This is the Time by Billy Joel as its theme, played by our traditional prom band, ' This End Up. Senior Liz Lorton thought, ' Prom really united the senior class on one of our last social events together. Before prom, couples could be seen all over town dining in such fine res- taurants as Tippecanoe Place and the Summit Club. The evening ' s unsea- sonably cold weather prevented cus- tomary drives up to Lake Michigan and romantic walks, but various after prom gatherings gave couples the op- portunity to extend the evening. The Junior class, especially its offi- cers, deserved a big thank-you for its outstanding effort. From a senior point of view, as Rex Jameson put it, Prom is as much a part of being a senior as graduating. Seniors Tim Redden and Sinane Ooulet take time out from dancing to enjoy each other ' s company. Senior Tom Bhisitkul plays photographer while senior Maureen Sweeney smiles patiently. 20 From Senior John Moody and his date are wrapped up in conversation on the dance floor.

The 1987 SJHS spring musical, Gilbert and Sullivan ' s M.M.S. Pinafore came to a close. Fr. Rybicki, director, commented It ' s a very ambitious play just in terms of trying to hold things together with the cast. Senior Cesar Aquino stated There ' s a lot of talent in the cast. The chorus was as much a part of the musical as the leads. ' For John Spencer (Sir Joseph) The most challenging part was the time committment. This was difficult, but the rewards made it all worth- while. ' riot only did the actors have huge amounts of time invested, but so did the orchestra, directed by Mr. flunckle r, and the backstage crews, riumerous Saturdays were spent by Bro. Chris Dreyer and his stage crew creating the one set-the deck of the ship, which included an incredibly tall mast, complete with rigging. For those involved, h.M.S. Pin- afore was even more special be- cause it marked Fr. Rybicki s last mu- sical at St. Joe. Mis dedication and determination came through in the end to make the show enjoyable for all and a complete success. r ! -. HA Musical 19
