Time to Playl After a long, cold winter and a spring filled with controversial policy changes and desperate student protests, AnTostal 1984 gave students just what they needed; a week of festivities to close out the school year in style. Everything was perfect, including the weather, and the traditional week-long celebration got into full swing with several events on Thirsty Thursday. St. Mary ' s hosted the traditional Thursday picnic, featuring the now-famous jail game, as well as the Mr. Campus Contest, which had become one of the week ' s most popular events after being renewed the previous year. There was one big change made, however. The annual Beer Gardens, a long-time favorite of students from both Notre Dame and St. Mary ' s was moved from the St. Mary ' s campus to Senior Bar to accomodate more students at the senior hang-out. KNOW ANY GOOD LAUNDRY HINTS? Coated from head to toe, Tamara Bower and Margaret Brennan face the Sunny Saturday mud pits smiling all the way. Have they found Notre Dame ' s answer to facials ' Actually they have found one of the university ' s most favorite An Tostal events 18 AnTostal

Laurine Mcgna prepares for battle with a snowball during a winter skirmish- FROZEN SUMMER. Bicycles wait in a winter wonderland for a warmer tim - ' M:4 Winter Cheer Winter at Notre Dame is much more than falling snow and plummetting temperatures. From the end of the first semester through part of the second, students trudge through the snow and bundle up forthe brisk Indiana winter. Also during these times, the Notre Dame community remains active with its special events and celebrations. The first few days of snow are enjoyed as students take each other on in snowball fights. Every year winter is christened with the North vs. South quad snowball fight. Students wrap up in winter gear and charge toward Dillon to awaken the echoes with flying snowballs and lots of shouting. Christmas is a special time under the Golden Dome. With the Glee Club touring the dorms and library and the campus-wide decorations, the spirit of Christmas is alive. The annual Merry Christmas on Zahm and Cavanaugh Halls lights up the North Quad and reminds us all that the celebration of the birth of Christ is near. Upon returning from our Christmas breaks, the campus is awakened with the long lost chatter of students and the activities of welcome back week. There are tubing trips to Bendix Woods for those who wish to endure the cold, class activities, parties, and the beginning of the new semester. This year winter at Notre Dame was an exciting time despite the often chilling temperatures. Whether you kept warm inside or took an invigorating walk across campus, you knew that winter would not last forever. For many, the snow-covered campus and crystal clear days and nights are fond memories of this place in the north called Notre Dame. — Kim Roerig WINTER WEAR. Sharon Broghammer.
