Those students elected were John Casey, Taylor Carey, Toby Kircher, Soozi Palmer, Lila Rioth, and Lisa Girard. Soozi Palmer supported Wasson as a member of the Pep Club and Cabinet. As secretary of assemblies, Soozi contributed many long hours for the purpose of organizing both entertaining and informative assem- blies. Lila Rioth presented Wasson with her varied abil- ities through Council, Publicity Committee, yearbook staff, and as president of F.T.A. Supplying her efforts as vice president of the student body and as a member of Pep Club, Lisa Girard proved her worthiness of Wa- hian Royalty. John Casey's commendable services as president of the student body and as captain of the gymnastics team, made him an appropriate candidate for Wahian Royalty. As president of C-Club and as an exceptional gymnast, Taylor Carey deserved recognition. Toby Kir- cher's extra-curricular activities as chairman of Council and as captain of the cross-country team proved to be beneficial to both Toby and to Wasson.

Cindere1la's Fantasy Becomes ClNDERELLA'S BALLROOM came to life at the Junior-Senior Prom through the romantic atmosphere of The Stroke of Twelve. The juniors were in charge of providing the 1968 graduating class with a memor- able prom. They exhibited orginality and ingenious ideas in the planning and decorations. Draped ceilings, pillars, and a regal throne created a lasting effect of fantasy which was highlighted by the presentation of the king and queen and their court. The seniors nominated many of their classmates, from whom five boys and five girls receiving the most et votes were chosen for Prom Court. A king and queen were then elected from the ten. Charlie Bolte, John Casey, Keith Edquist, Chuck Hughes, Chuck Nevius, Cindy Noxon, Soozi Palmer, Debbie Sauerhagen, Tricia Wendt, and Jan Wilson were chosen for Prom Court Royalty. John Casey and Jan Wilson were GISCTSO to reign 35 King and Queen. Creative ideas result from hours ofplanning byjuniors. l Q PROM COURT, LEFT TO RIGHT: Chuck Nevius, Tricia Wendt, Cindy Noxon, Jan Wilson, John Casey, Chuck Hughes, Debbie Sauerhagen, Keith Edquist, Soozi Palmer, Charlie Boite.
