Ficquett School Eighth Grade
Banquet Was Gala Social Event
On Friday night, May 12,'
1961, one-hundred -thirteen,
girls and boys of the eighth
grade — with their faculty
members—of the E. L. Fic
quett School turned back the.
clock to the days before the |
War Between The States, for j
their annual Eighth Grade,
Banquet.
As these students dressed in
lovely formals, walked into the I
front entrance, they knew they
were approaching some grand
old plantation home. There
were huge white columns cov- :
ered with green ivy, a large i
wicker chair, small wrought
iron tables, and other furnish
ings which suggested hospital- I
ity, so characteristic of the
“Ole South”.
In the background of this
scene was a large Confederate
flag with improvised Confed
erate soldiers standing near it.
The “ballroom” was as pic
turesque and lovely as an an
te-bellum party. The banquet
tables were arranged diagon
ally on either side, which ad
ded to the charm of the large
room. A summer house, en
twined with red roses, and a
grouping of seats and tables
made a lovely summer garden
scene.
Throughout the ballroom the
centennial theme was carried
out in the decorations. The ta
bles held burning candles in
antique holders and center
pieces of red, white and blue
flowered bouquets. The place
cards, the Confederate caps
and the nosegays used as fa
vors contributed much to the
anniversary theme. On the
walls were Confederate shields,
overhung with pat ri otic
streamers.
Three attractive and unique
chandeliers were swinging
from the ceiling. These red,
white, and blue lanterns con
tained inflated balloons, which
at the stroke of eleven—were
released as cherished souvenirs
for the honored guests.
The banquet menu was as
ssouthern as the decorations.
