Nobody ever knew. As fall turned to winter, small groups of Juniors flocked to meetings scattered from homes to warehouses as they scram- bled to design the JunioUSenior prom, uWay Down Southf, Nobody ever knew . . . that as the week before JuniorrSenior approached, entire walls were being reconstructed in has- ty confusion. The once enthusiastic ideas crumbled when decorations fell from the walls and were rendered un- workable. Nobody ever knew while Senior girls painstakingly Clay Lowder, Karen Feno, Mark Lyle; and Kelliegh Waynick seem to be enjoying themselves as they watch the dancers on the dance floor. The Sophomore servers Mickey Plowden, Molly Chappell, Julie Rowe, John Duffie, Julie Abrams, W. T. Brogden, and Chandler Lowder pose for a picture in the various Southern out- fits. tTrey Harvin not picturedt. As president of the Junior class, Darren Rhodes spent long hours perfecting the decora- tions for the JuniorrSenior prom. 26 e Jr.-Sr. primped before their mirrors just hours before the prom. Mr. Hugh Hill, the Junior class advisor, was hurriedly barking orders in desperation as his students struggled to complete the finishing touches. Yes, little did the Seniors realize as they waited to begin the Grand March on April 12, 1985, that behind the shadows of the hand- built ante-bellum southern house, lurked nervous Juniors ready to scale the ceiling-high ladders to repair any decorations that mischievously chose to tumble from the walls at the mo- ment of their unveiling. The unveiling began at 7 otclock pm. as the Sophomore servers clad in hoop skirts and bows, and tattered war uniforms escorted the Seniors to their seats. The Junior Class President and JuniorrSenior head, Darren Rhodes welcomed the Seniors to the prom. Then, the evening was spent jamming to the music provided by t band Dancer. Later, Wilson H glasses were presented to the Senio as gifts from the Junior class. As th night gradually faded into pleasaK memories, the Seniors proceeded ont the gym floor for the traditional Senioh dance, the perfect close to a enchanting evening. As the girls cheered them on, Patrick Richburg and Bucky Fldler provided uex- tran entertainment in their red shoes and shades. The band, Dancer, provided lively enter- tainment as the dancers on the floor partied all night long.
