Looking back, every senior can remember the feeling of joy and anticipation they experienced as they met their big sisters back in 1965. Following the Mercy tradition, the seniors “capped” their little sisters as a symbol of welcome to the school. This year, the proce- dure changed, but the thought remains. The seniors presented their little sisters with blue daisies at a get-acquainted party. While enjoying snacks and entertainment in the gym, the freshmen asked questions about high school life, and the seniors were more than willing to provide the answers. The big and little sisters assembled in December to celebrate Christmas together. Gifts were exchanged and the girls joined in to sing carols. The climax of the party was a surprise visit from Santa Claus, played by Mr. Fitzpatrick. The jolly old fellow was pulled in on his sleigh by elves and helpers. Both freshmen and seniors presented little Christmas skits.
