The prom was held in the spacious Houston Room of the Houston Club from 8:00 to 11:30 p.m. The room consisted of a large dance floor with tables on either side and twin circular staircases leading to more tables overlooking the dance floor. I thought it was beautiful, said Junior Lisa Lang, who was accompanied by Junior Kevin Ehring. ltwas much prettier than River Oaks last year. To accent the setting, the relatively new but excellent band, Eclipse, provided music for the evening. We picked out a band from Mark Taylor's Brock Agency in June, said Junior Class President Bridget McGettigan, but they broke up. So, we picked a new band, Eclipse, over a popular old one, and they turned out to be good. Bridget also commented, l think everyone that went enjoyed the prom. We got a nice room, and the band played a little bit of everything - and a lot of slow songs. l had fun. About 200 people attended the prom, which cost S25 per couple. Most went to dinner before the dance and had dessert afterwards. Some of the more popular restaurants were Vargo's, Tony's, Benihana's and Hoolihan's. Aside from the fact that the bill for the three couples at our table was S168, and we didn't have 5168, it was wonderful, commented Junior Allisa Alban. The manager of the restaurant realized our predicament, and told us to forget about it, but I have to admit that our experience added spice to the evening. The prom itself was gorgeous, and I felt like Rhett Butler walking down those circular staircasesf' lt was a magic night, said Junior Cathy Hudspeth, summing up the evening, and l'll never forget it.
