The banquet which began at 7 o'clock was enjoyed by everyone. A delicious course, which consisted of fried chicken, dutchess potatoes, green beans, fruit cocktail, salad, and strawberry sundae, was served. At the speaker's table were seated the guests of honor, Miss Ruth Staley, assistant superintendent of schools in Wayne County, Mr. and Mrs. Fletcher Lloyd, member of the board of education, Mr, j. H, Bowling, our principal, Mr. M. O. Brumfield, the Senior sponsor, Mrs. Beth Nichols, the junior sponsor, Nancy Winchester, president of the Senior class, Elizabeth Kauffman, pres- ident of the junior class, Fred Bowe, vice-president of the junior class. After the dinner course was finished a few words were spoken by each of these. The prom, which was a semi-formal dance was one of the many given in the city during the closing weeks of school to celebrate the adjournment of the school year. lt was a warm evening, so the girls wore their summer formals, and the boys wore sport coats, slacks, and campus suits. Fred Becker and his orchestra played many a lively tune and jitterbugs took the floor. As a highlight of the evening Miss june Morehead, a member of our school, entertained us with a few songs and dance numbers, The conduct was very polite and couples exchanged partners by programs which were made in advance. Mr. Bill Estler and his photographer, Mr. W. T. Chambers, took several pictures of this big event for the l-lerald-Advertiser. More than one hundred young people were present and paid proper respect to the chaperones who were faculty members and their wives or husbands. At l a. m. the orchestra played its goodnight tune and the happy, flushed couples streaked for all night cafes to down hamburgers, coffee, and milk. This junior-Senior Prom was enjoyed by everyone and marked the climax of the many pleasant social events of the high school year.
