Seasons change The Jack-o-lanterns glow, and the leaves rustle The Autumn season brings the fashion changes from cotton shirts to sweaters, the weather temperatures drop, and the leaves to turn brilliant reds and oranges. Fall marks the end of games in the sun to sitting patiently for assignments; a dreary thought for some. For others, its a new slate to improve grades and find new loves. The band always plays a special part in fall rememberances, by participating in various competitions and parades which seemed to appear at the time when the leaves were in a rain- bow of colors. But as the fall comes to an end and we slip into winter’s frosty grip, we all can say that fall is a new beginning for all of us. Tradition after tradition, year after year, this barn stands to hold the memones of seniors past, as the names change, so do the seasons. I wonder if hes thinking about me too? Christy Schlag rests after march ing the Veteran’s Day parade. 72 Fall Halloween
