Promotin Patriotism The word got around and patriotism was in. We took each red-white- 8 and-blue event with not only acceptance, but also with pride. For the first time we recited the pledge weekly, but by the end of the first semester, it became a daily ritual. Even before Student Council Congress President Cheryl Loe had a chance to request of everyone to rise for the pledge, classes were already standing. This showed an awareness of patriotism within everyone, Moreover, an entire week was designated as the I Love America Week, sponsored by Student Congress, as contests and dress-up days were con- ducted. Also, an hour-long assembly was presented at the conclusion of the week, during which talks by such distinguished guests as a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, a Vietnam war veteran, and an Astros baseball player were given. These spirit-full activities not only remind' ed us of our freedom, but also established a permanent sense of appreciation for our country within us. For once we were alert about it, we could promote patriotism among the society around us. The theme of the week hangs prominently in the commons. Cheryl Loe hands winner jim Williams his prize cookie for being one of the most spirited during the week. opening
