'Hits of the ’60’s’ and prom climax 1969 school year Irene Davidson and Gerald Elsworth share the last dance, Somewhere Over the Rainbow,” at the 1969 prom. An air of excitement descended upon the students as the spring of the 1969 school year initiated two principal happenings. The first on May 10 found many students at the Senior Citizens Building in Anderson dancing to the strains of the prom’s theme song Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” After the traditional crowning of the queen, a king was an- nounced; and he took his new place of honor. Read- ing of wills and prophecies and touring of the Senior Potpourri Room occupied the remainder of the dance. Just a week later on May 17, formals and white jackets were donned again for the variety show. Butterflies were stilled as performances, rang- ing from comical TV commercials to the more serious hit tunes of the ’60’s, developed on stage. As the last notes died away, students realized that this was the final variety show presentation for SHS. Attendants Kathy Barley and Barbara Dunlap flank reigning king, Steve DuPouy, and queen, Connie Cullen.

Fullback Larry Floyd smashes over the goal-line from two yards out, giving the Argylls six points. On September 26, Madison-Grant’s first Homecom- ing transformed the cold grayness of once-empty bleachers into a fall-colored confetti of wool clothes and eager faces. Enthusiasm was kindled with a bonfire and pep rally on Thursday night; and a parade composed of floats, queen candidates, and the marching M-G band on Friday night. During the game, tension mounted as the North Miami defensive unit surrendered a field goal to the Argylls with only seventeen seconds left in the second quar- ter. Halftime ceremonies included the crowning of Queens Caryl Joyner and Patsy Painter to reign during the rest of the evening. The three-point lead and the miracle of momentum proved insurmount- able for the Warriors as the Argylls clinched a 17-13 victory. The announcement of South Campus Homecoming Queen brings fulfillment to the dreams of Caryl Joyner. 7
