T ' was the Week Before Christmas Along with the annual hustle and bustle brought on by the holiday season, students took time out to participate in the decorating of classroom doors. Each second period class, with the encourage- ment of the faculty, used their imagina- tion to create doors that depicted the festive spirit of Christmas. The first place door was awarded to fvlrs. Kaloper ' s Clothing class. 1. Sr. Helene ' s English Literature class constructed a Christmas tree from tissue paper and glitter. 2. The first place door; a cheery fireplace adorned for the holidays. 3. Mrs. Ciketic ' s Marriage class decorated their door with a Santa Claus in uniform quite different than we usually see. 4. Mr. Markey ' s office door, gift wrapped and tied with a bow. Blow, blow, thou winter wind, Thou art not so unkind As man ' s ingratitude; Thy tooth is not so keen. Because thou art not seen, Although thy breath be rude. Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly; Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly; Then, heigh-ho, the holly! This life is most jolly. Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky. That dost not bite so nigh As benefits forgot; Though thou the waters warp, Thy sting is not so sharp As friends remember ' d not. Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly; Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly; Then, heigh-ho, the holly! This life is most jolly. — William Shakespeare Christmas ' 82 105 I I

Stars Bring Smiles of On December 16, the O.P. Corps held their third annual Christmas party for the children of the Toberman Settle- ment pre-school. Anthony Scovotto, dressed as Santa Claus, distributed bags filled with toys to each child. Punch, candy, and home-baked cookies were served. Profits from the Christmas dance, which was sponsored by the O.P. Corps, were used to buy the toys for thirty-eight children. The party and gifts brought great delight to the children and is one of many activities organized by the O.P. Corps. « 1. The party goes on as they anxiously await the arrival of Santa Claus. 2. Leave me alone, I don ' t want to have a good time. 3. Are we going to leave Santa some milk and cookies, too? 4. Time to get the party roll- ing! 5. Who spiked the juice? 6. Our turn! 7. Don ' t worry, Santa will be here soon. 106 Toberman Party
