“On the Wings of Love” Dancing to the music ot Saxon is one ot the many activities that takes place prom night. A night to dress up, to make believe, to romance, to remember were descriptions that fit Prom night. As the days dwindled, the excitement mounted. Many students were trying to color coordinate themselves. Many of the activities of the 1983 Prom were duplications of the 1982 Prom, but at least two things were unique: the feelings of seniors who realized this was it,” and the feelings of the rookies who had never experienced the goings-on of Prom night. Each year Juniors were responsible for the cost and decoration of the dance. Many faculty members were on hand to share in this event. Photographers were on hand to take pictures of each couple or group who wished it. With pic- tures, flowers, and many memories, it was unlike- ly that prom would be forgotten. For Larry DeVillez, measuring for a tux is as important as picking out dresses is for girls. Most guys found their tuxes in town while girls busily travel about for wardrobes.
