DOING IT WELL Ever since 1924 Walterboro High School Students have been doing it welt when it came to having Junior-Senior Proms so why should this year have been any different? With excitement in the air and Cupid shooting his arrow around every corner of WHS students began getting ready for the 1960-81 Junior-Senior Prom, As early as March, members of the student council began getting ready for the prom by selling prom tickets at a discount, couples $8 and singles $6, sales went up to $12 couples and $8 singles during the month of April. The task was begun and now It had to be finished. So with the assistance of Mt. W. Dreyer and Mr. Smoak on Monday April 13? 1981, over 100 stu- dents began participating in decorating the gym. Many found that designing was not all f un and glamour, but a lot of hard work. With wall paper falling, people doing everything but the right thing, and many just getting fed up with them- selves and each other this years prom didn't seem to be doing that well. Bui finally the students got them- selves arid the decorations together, not by working alone, but as one and at 3 o’clock p.m. April 17, the date of the prom, the task was finished. Afterward, I asked students what was their opinion of the gyms decora tions and the night itself Sylvia Coch- ran said, “The decorations were very- nice and the night was mostly a feeling of love ’ Cheryl Williams said, “The decorations showed creative imagina- tion and the atmosphere seemed like spring and James Pollard stated, “It was cool.” So the evening turned out to be beautiful and Love Was In The Air; Woody Reynolds, Mary Babibn, David Wat- ford, Pam Nobles, and Charles Wad Ford sake time out to enjoy the refreshments whJch were served at the piom. Passing the time away Casandlia Mitdie.ll, Den- e«n Adlmas, Brenda Dic ks, and Tanmime Salley have conversation on. iheir favorite subject BOYS!! L— S Plrflm

Whether running through the halls or cheering in the stands at a pep rally seniors and juniors created a competi- tive atmosphere that was truly great. Everyone wanted to win. but when the truth prevailed, all students have won. They had given the players confidence to do their best every minute of every game. But when one thought about it, the students had also gained confi- dence in themselves which made each day that much easier to bare. Baring days of exams, unwon games, and days of after school work, all became easier when the confidence turned into togetherness that made all students stand together. Togetherness that ran from sports, and band to every day student life. R.L.K. Showing their spirits before the Barnwell coir.petiticr, are the Band of Blue members: Je - Terry, Lei? a Mole.
