,JUNIOR-SENQR PROM Romeo-Juliet Blooms In 'A imc For Us' Inspired by the cry of today's youth and a popular mo- tion picture, Romeo and Juliet, the theme of the 1970 Junior-Senion Prom was dedicated, HA Time for Us. A colorful garden, featuring a waterfall, provided a focal point for decorations consisting of a bridge, garden furni- ture, real blooming flowers and trees. The garden added contrast to the more formal decorations of draped crepe and lighted candlebras. Consistent colors of purple and lavender transformed the cafeteria into a regal ballroom. Reigning over this year's formal was Queen Elizabeth Eggert, along with Escort Tom Hatch. Other members of the court were: Seniors Shirley Carson and Bruce Kroese, Helle Riiskjaer and Paul Garrett, and Jenny West and Al Augustine. Junior members included Sharon Hughes and Grant Werschkull, Ann Jordan and Ron Noyes, and Diane Ranf and Bill Olsen. In charge was Sally Gedrose with Debbi Peters, Jenny West, Paulette Sedler and Jeanne Payne heading com- mittees. NEWLY-NAMED PROM COURT fabovej, five princesses view as- sembly.
