,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.

SPRING MUSICAL Half A Hundred Work On Finian's Rainbow The American dream of rags to riches was the subject of this year's spring musical, Finian's Rainbow. A broadway hit of 20 years ago and more recently the subject of a mo- vie, the play was the story of an incorrigible old Irishman, Finian McLonergan, and his daughter Sharon who have come to America to make their fortune using a crock of gold stolen from the leprechauns. Cast in the title role of Finian was Senior Steve Holgate. Leslie Pyl lilted through the singing chores in the female lead of Sharon, who has reluctantly followed her father across an ocean and half a continent and is kept ignorant of the stolen crock until it's too late to give it back. Romantic lead was Dave Skoglund as Woody, a young Southerner who falls in love with Sharon. Tom Brosy played Og, the leprechaun who has been sent to retrieve the pilfer- ed crock. Major roles were also played by Dave Kahr, Bruce Stevens, Helle Riiskjaer and Raylene Barrett. Co-directors Larry Daw and George Koch handled an enormous cast and crew of almost 50 people through ZW months of rehearsal, almost the entire spring. The final play of the year, Finian's Rainbow played May 8 and 9 to capacity crowds. Sunny ...... Casey Nortness Buzz Collins ..... Dave Kahr Sheriff ....... Paul Garrett lst Sharecropper .........
