28 X ACTIVITIES Panthers Celebrate Yuleticle Season Paschalites seemed to paint the school in shades of red and green as Christmas cheer infected students and teachers. A traditional Christmas tree stood in the front foyer, which was also the site of the annual Santa Claus contest, sponsored by the LC. Elves, too, popu- lated the halls, as LC, SC, and PANTHER staff repre- sentatives dressed as Santa's helpers. To inform stu- dents of Jewish customs, Hanukkah celebrants deco- rated one of the trophy cases. Music played a part in the celebration, with a local band, Shepherd, perform- ing in an assembly during second period. PANTHER staffers tried to equal this by caroling to all who were unfortunate enough to be within earshot. As stu- dents were dismissed for their two week holiday, many were heard to exclaim as they drove out of sight, Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! I hope you like your new barber shop. Julia Duffy awards Greg Wil' son, a winner in the Santa Claus contest, his prize. I'm sure Santa will appreciate your little donation. An elfin Kelly Landman sells annuals to Gina Justiss, Sharon Pieper, and Linda Luian. Who said it's easy to walk and sing at the same time? Annual Staffers Pat McGee, Susan McLeland, Jayme Rasmusen, and Alice Griffith carol in the halls. I i .

The most original of lthese, iudged in a contest during homeroom, was lSteve McClellan, as Darth Vader. The scariest cos- tume, worn by Jody Dean, was Frankenstein. Hallow- een gave Panthers a chance at second childhood - a . moment to fulfill faded fantasies. l Count Dracula solicits members to the Paschal Blood Bank.

Wicked weather paralyzed Fort Worth on three con- secutive Wednesdays in mid-January, causing school to be closed five days and the opening to be delayed two mornings. Students used this time to frolic in the snow. Snowmen sprouted overnight and snowball fights broke out both at school and during the impromptu holidays. Fort Worth drivers, unaccus- tomed to icy streets, usually stayed at home, but a cou- rageous few braved the weather in an attempt to go about the business of everyday life. fi fm. rx ' During the second snow ofthe season, Brooks Smith and Regina Knight engage in a snowball fight.
