Success comes to first student govt. Halloween dance From ghostly goblins to Raggedy Ann and Andy, on October 30, 175 students attended the Halloween dance. Student Government sponsored the dance and sold discount tickets a week before the dance to get everyone excited about going. This also helped in fund rais- ing for Student Government. One of the exciting events of the eve- ning happened to be the Lip Sync contest. One group of eleven seniors performed The Monster Mash and won first prize. The event I liked most was the Lip Sync contest. That was good enough rea- son for me to go, said junior Tracy God- frey. The video screen let people watch the latest videos and dance along with the mu- sic at the same time. The best part of the dance was seeing everyone dressed up and really in the Hal- loween spirit, said junior Michelle Martin. If you missed the Halloween dance, you really missed a lot of fun! Fun and excitennent mean weekend hunting for many students in the fall season Mot every student thought about hunt- ing as the in thing to do over the week- end. I think that hunting is very enjoyable and relaxing, and I also think that more people should take part in this American heritage, said junior Andy Bell. Bell is just one of the many students who went deer hunting. Michelle Culver agreed to go deer hunting with her dad. She had to be very still and quiet so not to scare them off. Michelle and her father didn ' t have much luck, but John Kellam did as he went rabbit hunting. I went rabbit hunting this fall because I find it very relaxing and fun, said junior John Kellam. Many students found excitement and en- tertainment in hunting during the fall. I FINALLY GOT HIM Said senior Robert Brumley as he stands by his prize possession after a long day of hunting.

r . ' to school Parents in school but without books pick up report cards • Am I in the right place? Where am I going? These phrases happened to be used several times on Back to School rSight. The evening of October 9, started with an introductory pro- grann, which lasted about ten minutes. After the introduction, parents started off to their students first class. The office controlled the time schedule via P.A. for the convenience of the parents. Each class lasted ten minutes and had a regular passing time of five minutes. The event lasted two hours. I just explained what we do in class and what we ' re trying to achieve. said Mrs. Shirley Carmony, head of the English Depart- ment. This event happened to be rewarding in a sense that the parents realized what had been expected of their kids and the teachers could explain the class to the parents and gain their support.

winter blahs? Not a chance at NCCHS with all the busy activities jaST A LITTLE BIT LONGER . . Adam Griner struggles to stay awake as he stud- ies for his final exams. Photo by David Toller. Christmas at NCCHS proves to be a sharing experience for all Christmas was a time for sharing, singing, eating, etc. Of course, all of these things took place at NCCHS. This year brought in some new activities for everyone to experience. Everyone went to the ail-new Hills and Ball Stores to shop for their Christmas gifts. The two new stores opened in the late fall and provided New Castle with a few more nice shopping places. And speaking of shopping, it seemed as though everyone had their minds on teddy bears this Christmas. All through the halls, one could see the popular holiday bears in the form of sweatshirts, pins, or stuffed animals. The Christmas convocation brought some cheer when it took place Decem- ber 17 in Bundy Auditorium. The band played many Christmas songs while the different choir groups sang harmonizing tunes in honor of the holiday season. For the finale, both the band and choir worked together by playing and singing The Messiah. The Senior Citizen ' s Buffet sponsored by the Youth Advisory Council turned out to be an excellent way to share good tidings with the community. The students and senior citizens dined together in the candlelit cafeterias. Once again. Social Studies teacher, Jerry Koger held the Christmas party given for the Head Start children. Students in Kogers ' Sociology classes adopted a child for the evening and bought him her a gift. Everyone agreed that a lot of joy came from this event. Christmas is a happy time and students and staff celebrate it in style. Each new year brings in different activities for the holidays. Finals give some students satisfaction; others fury The concept of testing 90 hours of learning in one class hour seems cruel and inhumane. But, come the middle of January, students sit and stare blankly at one-fourth of their semester grade — FINALS. The streets become deserted and the phone lines free as students fill their bed-tops with books and notes, cramming four months of information into their minds. Why? Senior Tracy Morrison says, It ' s like one more chance to prove to yourself that you ' ve learned something. However, others inevitably feel finals give teachers just one more chance to prove how seldom students did pay attention during class. PURE EXCITEMENT . . .
