PROM becomes magical night An almost magical feeling permeated the air. The soft swishing as gown clad ladies walked gracefully by clinging to the arms of their elegantly tux apparelled escorts, was barely discernable over the murmers of couples and the music filling every i crevice of the room. It was Heaven in Your Eyes and featured the music of the Texas Armadillo Band.

VALEDICTORIAN STEPHANIE JANAK With an average of 100.83, Stephanie Janak earned the right to be valedictorian. She u as able to achieve an av- erage of over a hundred through the extra points earned in honors class- es. She distributes her time well between ac- tivities and school work. Homework is the first priority. I always do it first so 1 don ' t have to worry about it. However, homework may take up a lot of time, but she also finds time to participate in many other activities. Throughout high school she played basketball and ran track. She served on the Student Council all four years and served as chaplain her sophomore year. A three year member of National Honor Society, she served as vice pre- sient. In her non-school re- lated activities, she has been a member of 4-H for 10 years. She was selected to attend the National 4-H Congress in Chicago. As a junior she advanced with her science project to the National Science Fair in Puerto Rico. Although school is very important to her, it has never really in- terrupted me from hav- ing fun, that ' s a major priority also. AWARDS PICNIC Friday, May 13, turned out to be quite a lucky day for students who received academic awards. For the first time, the annual awards picnic was hosted by DuPont at the company park. Those students who were recognized at the awards ceremony at the Victoria Community Center were allowed to spend the day at Du- Pont. Activities, such as horseshoes to frisbee to volleyball, were held throughout the day. However, the see-saws and the swings never had a lonely moment the entire day. Faculty member, Carolyn Dornak organized sev- eral relay type games along with the usual egg and water balloon toss. Lunchtime finally came and everyone en- joyed the barbecue and watermelon. By 3 p.m. most eve- ryone was ready to get back to school so they could go home and rest after a long day at play. COOL KID: Arthur Ellis dem- onstrates the proper technique on how to toss a horseshoe. Many students went to Du- Pont Park for the awards pic- nic. [•li VALEDICTORIAN
