Where We're At STQDENT LIF F IN CONTROL: Bonzai! In order to be the first person back at school in the spring Walk-a-thon, James Zito must use ingenu- ity to find a short-cut. In Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew, the play with- in the play of Kiss Me, Kate, Lucentio (Jeff Larson) and Gremio (John Flatley) are in awe of Kate’s rages. 4 Student Life Finally, the long-awaited dis- missal bell signals the end of another round of classes. For most students and faculty, however, the day at school is far from over. Sweaters and ties, blazers, and skirts give way to sweats and shorts, hats and hel- mets, theatre T-shirts and jeans. Nearly any day of the week, the parking lot is well popu- lated from dawn to dusk. Most stu- dent population demonstrate that there is life after two o'clock. This involvement and dedication by so many individuals leads to success in all activities for the entire school. “Off Broadway” drama productions, not only performed by the students, but also under Mr. Alan Ksen’s direction, cos- tumed and choreographed, are always smash hits. Other events such as the potentially purse- draining fashion show, proms, ye Junior class marshalls, Mark Coogan and Daniel Ison prepare to lead the seniors to graduation ceremonies. In the girls’ line are Kim Aguiar, Wen- and school dances also get en- thusiastic support. There are, however, other aspects of student life which do not receive quite so much prin- ter's ink. As members of the Feehan community, we are well aware of our good fortune and do not hesitate to share with others. Thanksgiving baskets, overflow- ing with holiday goodies are pre- pared and distributed to needy families. Mercy missions in Hon- duras, the American Red Cross, the Oxfam collection for third world hunger have all benefitted by our contributions. In our local communities, we have even campaigned for possi- ble political big-wigs! A large por- tion of our students give of them- selves each day in their after- school and weekend jobs. We cover all the bases and sup- port one another in all that we do. Ours is a school which has chosen to live student life to the fullest. WE’RE IN CONTROL! dy Anderson, Julie Batista; in the boys’ line are Roger Alix, Christopher Alvarez, James Bibeault, Anthony Anzivino and Michael Amirault.

Good Bye Caf . Cloudy skies, spring dressed in freez- ing weather, and winter-like darkness hinted at a very adventurous evening. Fathers and daughters entered the Venus DeMilo in Swansea, Mass. and checked in their coats. Dressing up seemed so appropriate, for the Venus DeMilo had an aura of true class. Both daughters and fathers noticed quite a change in atmosphere from the school cafeteria with its folding tables and chairs. High heels and shiny dress shoes sank into plush carpeting, and marble pillars replaced the linoleum tile of the cafeteria. Entering the banquet hall, Dad re- ceived the customary souvenir glass as did his daughter, and moved on to join friends at crowded tables. A multicourse dinner of boneless chicken was served instead of the punch, pretzels and chip snacks of past Father- Daughter dances. Heads turned when one unfortunate waiter sent lettuce and . Hello Venus tomatoes flying from salad bowls, hitting a couple of girls’ dresses. Well, maybe he was a little overworked! In leaving the banquet room, many who attended the dance noticed the snow billowing down out the front win- dow of the lobby. People began to worry about making it home in the fast-coming snowstorm. The wise left early, but others couldn’t bear to miss the after dinner dancing. It was common to see many dads and daughters out on the dance floor, still moving to the music of “The Seasons.” Throughout the evening, lines wound around the lobby for those waiting to have their pictures taken to capture the evening as a memory. As the night came to a close, fathers could only look forward to creeping home through the heavy falling snow- flakes at slow speeds for many hours through a frightening storm. Joyously dancing the snowy night away is Greta Meszoely and her father. 7 ‘ . x. 7 “ , a. Enjoyment of the evening is expressed by Allison Wegerdt, Lisa Klowan, Trearty Bartley , Gloria Du- buc, Nicole La Chance, and their fathers. 6 Father-Daughter Dance
