HOMECOMING 1956 School Daze , School Daze !! On October 28 with rain, and more rain, Chick Reese and Carolyn Starck reigned over the 1956 Homecoming dance. As usual the seniors on the football team and their dates formed the court. The theme was carried out in our school colors, red and white. There were several books along the walls representing the different classes in school. The throne was an open book with Whippets written across it. At the opposite end of the gym was a huge black slate on which every- one signed his name. The refreshment stand was appropriately the teach- er's favorite, a big red apple. Afterward, a crowd of damp dancers proceeded to the Green Shutters for a smorgasbord dinner. Page l Twenty-Five

l Page Twenty JUNIOR PROM With Showboat as the theme of the 1955 Prom, May 13 was a big day for the Juniors. Bill Bethke and Lyles Enright reigned as King and Queen. The theme was carried out with all the characteristics of a show- boat. The throne was a tipped anchor. The walls were shadows of min- strels, featuring the eyes and hats of the darkies. The refreshment stand featured a bar with the tables representing the poker tables in a gambling casino. The orchestra stand represented the floor show on the showboat with its can-can girls. This year all of the boys on the court wore pale yellow dinner jackets, with black trousers and black cumberbands. We girls will never forget the black suspenders, as they were snapping all evening. Our court was fed at the Red Hen. Then all proceeded to Bosshards for breakfast after the party. -Four
