Senior least T)ay: Unqualified Success The Senior Feast Day, one of the most important e- vents of the Senior year, opens with the presenta- tion of decorations by Notre Mhre. The Juniors play a large part in effect- ing the Feast Day by tak- ing the Seniors out to lunch, this year to Lea's Pizzeria, and preparing entertainment for them, usually including a pro- gram in the auditorium. In the jungle (the Senior Lounge), the Senior Feast Day was the occasion of several un- successful endeavors toward levitation. Boris and Natasha came to life in the audi- torium, thanks to Bettie Jo Kirsch and Mary Dennihan, who portrayed the famous cartoon characters in the Junior skit on the Senior Feast Day. Wide awake after their slumber party the night before, the Seniors pose on their Feast Day waiting for the Junior program to begin.

Zke More We Qet Zoget her The Freshman-Sophomore Feast Day gives the underclassmen a chance to forget about school and have fun. Both classes prepare programs for the other and contribute toward the enjoy- ment of their Feast Day. Kathy Dolan and Jane Boggs portray a boy and girl in an embarassing situation at the drive-in movie as part of the Freshman-Sophomore Feast Day. Assuming the role of Seniors on their Feast Day, the Juniors are allowed all the Senior privileges. Among these are wearing the Senior rings and class colors, going out to lunch and using the front door and Senior Lounge. After lunch, a program is staged for the Seniors-for- a-day. Discharging her duty to show her Junior a good time, Senior Louise McNelly pins a decoration on Barbara Orchard. Madame Know-It-All, one of the main features of the Junior Feast Day, enthralls the Juniors and Seniors with her predictions at a seance in the bomb shelter. Trying to get rid of some extra pizza is Miss Rogers, at the Pizza House, the setting for lunch on the Junior Feast Day.
