Registration Means A New Beginning Most will agree that August 30 is really too early for registration, but that was what it was this year. One of the absolutes seems to be that school must open on the day after Labor Day. no matter how early that holiday arrives. There is no over- time for teachers who come forlpreliminary prep- arations nor for those who register incoming students and sell books. But there it was, a Saturday, and the school swarming with girls and parents registering. buying books and greeting old friends. But in spite of it being only August 30. there was a certain ex- citement in looking forward to another year. Sister Lacey is new at Clifton. She chats with Tracey Heidt, seventh grader, on registration day. Peggy VanVyven arranges schedule with the. help of Sister Ann Smith.

Homecoming Tea The old and the new join together in the true Sacred Heart tradition at the annual Home- coming Tea. Some long for the past while others anticipate their future at the academy. It is a time for making new friends - students as well as teachers - and also for renewing 01d friendships. Just what is it that makes this reunion on August 15 such a unique event? It has been said that it is like a family reunion; like coming home after a long vacation. People are inter- ested to hear what you have been doing and to exchange news of the holidays. A Special treat awaited us this year; the yearbooks were here! This is the earliest they have arrived. BELOW: Nancy Spencer. Celeste Blase and Roz Florez admire the Citadel.

Boarding School Comes T 0 A Close The Italians say that partings are like little deaths. And things won't be quite the same when the boarding school is no more. This last year fcund Peggy Sauniet and Sara Schurn the lone survivets of a long and happy tradition. They roamed in what once was a cloistered part of the house above the treasury. They spent recreation time in Mater's parlor where they had access to TV which forms background sound ef- fects for many students in moments of lighter studies. Sara spent weekends at home. and Peggy spent most weekends with friends. Sara will commute next year and Peggy will be in college. There will be a real void at Clifton. Something of family Spirit will have ended. Sara Schurn does household chores in the laun- dry; no rush now to get the machine. Sara exercises domestic talent in preparing Peggy Saunier has an incredible ability to watch breakfast. TV and perform manual tasks.
