The sound of the 8:15 bell echoes through the halls and simultaneously Whi- ting students rise to pay tribute to their country and their heritage with the “Pledge of Allegiance.” The playing of “To the Colors” at this time adds to the patriotic beginning of every school day. Whiting students learn the character- istics of a good voter through government classes and an inspection of a voting booth and machine. Each room of the school contains an American flag, which serves as a constant reminder of the gift of freedom. Students Pay Tribute to 'Old Glory’ Merrill Kendall and Sandy Greenburg pause and pay their respects to the flag as Stanley Bialon plays “To the Colors.” Howard Stross and Stan Bialon add a patriotic touch to every school day with their playing of “To the Colors” at 8:15 every morning.

to Enchanted Whiting Prom Couples “Lakeside Fantasia” was the theme that beckoned prom-goers to the Chicago Room of McCormick Place in Chicago, Illinois, on May 15, 1964. They danced under the setting of the Chicago skyline cast on moonlit Lake Michigan to the music of the Harry Branden Orchestra. Wes Harrison, “Mr. Soundeffects”, provided the enter- tainment during intermission. The Conrad Hilton caterers served the couples a candle-lite dinner, after which they departed for home and reality. Janice Brown and Tom Shackleford enjoy the dance music provided by the Harry Branden Orchestra. A remembrance from “A Lakeside Fantasia.” Prom-goers socialize dur- ing a break at the Jun- ior-Senior Prom, “Lake- side Fantasia.”
