Annual D. C. H. S. Junior-Senior Prom Held Wednesday Evening A class of twenty three boys and girls dressed in their best formal attire*, .played hosts and hostesses' to twenty nine equally well-dressed upperclassmen Wednesday evening, when the annual Decatur Catholic high school junior-senior prom of 1953 became a reality. The colorful program got underway fn the Knights of Chlumbus hall, which had undergone a real change, looking for nil the world like a “Garden in the Rain,” the theme of, the yearly 'event. Brightly colored carnations, jonquils, hyacinths and chrysanthemums reposed gracefully against a gleaming white picket fence which circled the floor of the hall and even the walls became a reality of sky with rain drops falling generously into numerous flower beds of brightly hued tulips and roses, carrying ttye saying ‘‘spring showers bring May flowers” into being. — -i u—

Last ibut not least, the north wall of the “garden” became spiritual, •with a lovely Fatima grotto, centered with a delicate statue of the Blessed Virgidt Large /baskets of spring flowers dT numerous variety were shown here to best advantage, against huge pillars reaching to the heavens. ( , A delicious buffet slipper, prepared by the mothers or the junior class, was served at six thirty, to begin the memorable evening. Small tables, with centerpieces of white tapers, twined with roses and encircled with miniature picket fences, seated the guests. Programs and individual favors completed the appointments. 'Faculty members and special guests for the evening, were served by twelve of the Sophomore claLser, Charles Vogle'wede, Walter Mowery, Tom Titus, Tim 'Murtaugh, Bob IM i Iler, Alice Gage, Rita Heimann. Joan Laurent, Kathy Pursley, Marcella Gillig, Delores ' Braun and Jackie Gase. ; At eight o’clock, Michael Kopne of the junior class, who acted as master of ceremonies, introduced Miss Rita Rumschlag. president of the junior class, w’ho welcomed the guests and senior class president Jerry Laurent, who gave the response. An act of.consecration was recited by members of the two classes who followed this with the song “A Gardep in the Rain.” “Singing in the Rain” was then voiced by the two classes and the* host group sang “Over the Rain-; •bow." Nine junior boys, Tom DeBolt, /Ed Drum, Donald -Eyanson, Mike* Kohne. Ronnie Loshe, Matt Schulte, ltd Wilddr, MfiUUam Kruse and Jo*l York continued along with the theme by singing “When You Wore a Tulip.” Prophecies for the future of the graduates were then given by Charmaihe ’Des Jean, Vergie Sautbine, Carolyn . . — j .. ■■ , iA'—
