The entire gym, walls and ceiling, was hung with red, white and gold streamers with tinkling glass ornaments. Juniors, seniors and their dates entered through a teahouse with an elaborate tea set on a low table, The orchestra was seat ed in a sampan over the pit filled with “simulated” water made of blue plastic; the boat’s bow rose and dipped regularly as though from the action of a real body of water. A group of girls danced a formal Japemese fan dance, a fierce dragon of green papier mache and cardboard with gold glittering scales, breathing “real” red fire, slithered around the floor and color ful rickshas all provided an authentic flavor to the affair.

Mrs. Edson and Mr. deCosta Win First The big social event of the high school year took place last Satur day night. This was the night for the Junior-Senior Prom. This is a dance given to the Seniors by the Juniors. The Juniors decided upon a theme, complete the de corations and supply a band. The theme this year was “Oriented in Dreams.” As the name suggests, the whole gym was done in the style of China and Japan. As one walked through the entrance of the gym, he passed through a small bamboo house with a tea table set in one corner. Upon entering the gym, one would see streamers running down the ceiling with glass ornaments of china hanging from above. At the far end, the Juniors built a beautiful Japanese garden with a pagoda and running water fountain. In one corner was a life-size rickshaw with a runner. One of the most interesting of all the decorations was the band stand. ’The band was seated in a large Chinese sampan, with a dragon sail and a bow that actual ly moved up and down simulating the boat at sea. The tables were arranged with small favors and fortune cookies. The side of the gym was black with scrolls of Chinese writing Club. The Seniors had theirs at Howard Johnson’s on the patio. Hamburgers and cokes were serv ed. The fathers took pictures of each couple as a memento of their last Junior-Senior. THE ROUND-UP Prizes will be given for the best old-fashioned country costumes at the Hospital Round-Up, to be held tomor row (Friday) night at the Na tional Guard Armory. The dance benefit is sponsored by the Moore Memorial Hospital Auxiliary to aid the fund- campaign now in progress.
