 T hi v v ; : :: ' • ' '.::' e Slipper Fit B ibbidi Bobbidi Boo r he first three classes seemed to last forever as ju- niors and sen- iors turned their pians for the evening over and over in their minds. The list was never ending: tux, gown, corsage, clean out the car, go to the grocery store to buy food for the beach house, get hair fixed, get nails done, and don’t forget the invita- tions. For students who had these tasks, as well as others, to take care of before meeting their dates for the evening, a note from home was required to sign out of school. The list of errands to run may have been lengthy but not nearly so long as the sign-out line. The evening offered the mystique of meet- ing Prince Charming and dancing till mid- night, not to mention returning that bor- rowed luxury car be- fore it turned back into a ragged ole’ used car rather than a pumpkin. The shag contest was won by Jennifer Chipu- kites and her date Tim Benson. A drawing for prizes and other con- tests were held. Mrs. Anne Funder- burk commented, “The prom committee did an excellent job and I was very proud and pleased at how smoothly the occasion went.” The magic Cin- derella theme as well as the perrenial oppor- tunity to dress in the lavish, opulent clothes allowed the juniorsand seniors to be queens for a day and Prince Charming for a night. Volunteers from Mr. Jarvis’ classes sold prom tickets during both lunches. Over 550 tickets were sold for the event. Height doesn't make the dif- ference to Wesley “Buck- wheat” Jones as he sheds his shoes to “boogie” with Robyn Blakeman. Theshag contest brought sev- eral couples out to strut their stuff, but Jennifer Chipukites and Tim Benson, a recent gra- duate, shagged off with first place. 36 Prom
