Word was out that all were to celebrate and celebrate they did! The students from Mrs. Ross's art classes began to celebrate by decorating the office's windows with typical Christmas scenes. Norman Rockwell would have been jealous, The celebration soon spread from the office, through the halls, and into some teachers' classrooms. The 12 Student Life German room was, as usual, filled with gingerbread houses. The student senate sold mistletoe and many engagements were started in the halls. All the students were looking forward for the vacation. The seniors were anxiously awaiting the arrival of the new year which would ring in their year of graduation. The holiday season went out as fast as it had come in, only with a different tune e Auld Lange Syne. -Kryket Mars

Living on the shores of Lake Michigan, one is delighted with the beauty of each individual sailboat. Iifelines Happy 150th Birthday Michigan C Ity! Unlike years past, the Michigan City Summer Festival Parade served as a giant birthday celebration. A record breaking crowd turned out to attend the party. Seen along with the parade route were banners, bands, Clowns, and floats. Fire engines from surrounding counties served as party horns with their sirens. The engines were also a way for adults and children alike to cool down from that day's intense heat. The Clowns were tossing candy to the Children as they always do, but the difference was that it was Michigan Cityls 1501h birthday. Many Rogers clubs and organizations made sure that this parade was a special one. Rogers people who worked on the parade were Mr. Jensenls construction classes, and Mrs. Ross' art classes who together constructed a beautiful float. Never caught with a low step, the Raider Band marched down Franklin Street playing tunes while trying to survive the heat of the near 100ll afternoon. The Summer Festival Parade turned otu to be a special one, because of all the special people that took part in it. Happy Birthday Michigan City! -Janelle Jones Sesquicentennial

Scrooge Delivers A New Tradition As the Christmas season came around, a new tradition began in the Rogers auditorium-a Christmas musical. Mr. Trueax has for years wanted to do a Christmas show, and two years ago, his dream came true. Then, last year, he decided to enlarge the Christmas show. Because of this, a 55 minute production, Scrooge, was presented. Playing the part Of Scrooge was Bob Nauyokas. Other parts were Bob Cratchitt tTim Hubbardt, Mrs. Cratchitt tGayle Rugglest, Mr. Fezziwig tByron HurU, Tom Jenkins tSCOtt Barnest, and Tiny Tim tBrian NietzeD. The play was directed by Ms. Heeg, and the entire production was played on the risers. Only having two weeks to practice, the musical came together well, and brought the Christmas spirit into Rogers. -Scott Barnes Christmas
