Newton High Junior-Senior Prom Vlas
Gala Affair at Gymnasium on Friday
By Sara Margaret Patterson
The opening event of the
commencement series to honor
the Seniors of 1959 was the
Junior-Senior Prom which was
held on Friday evening May
Ist from 8:30 to 12 midnight at
Newton High School Gym
nasium.
The Juniors chose “Paradise of
the Deep” as their theme using
a color scheme of coral and
aqua.
The front of the gym was
covered with an awning of sea
nets supported by giant sea
horses. Through the lobby an
under water scene of coral, sea
fans and phantom fish intro
duced the theme found on the
main floor. The gym was trans
formed into an underwater pa
radise by means of a canopy of
swirling sea water crepe from
which hung hundreds of glit
tering and colored marine life
specimens. At the top a group
of dolphins seemed ready to
leap above the waves and to
either side a sea serpent and an
octopus seemed ready to join in
the frolic.
Along the floor marked by a
sandy beach scene were drift
wood logs and reefs in which
schools of fish, crabs, turtles,
and denizens of the deep rest
ed. King Neptune with his Tri
dent ruled over one end of the
gym and opposite was a spot
lighted tropical mural in gor
geous colors. Around the siders
the illusion was continued with
aqua streamers forming covers
for the background of a sunken
pirate ship which was used for
as the platform for the orches
tra.
Looking as if they had just
spilled from the ship were
treasure chests loaded with
golden vessels, pieces of eight
and fabulous jewels. Arranged
also among the coves were ta
bles covered with aqua covers
and offering favors of paper
painted fl
