December Toys For Tots Drive Arouses Pre-Christmas Aura p .. W X 5,1 'A I x No one was prepared for the feverish, last-minute activity that came with December. Studying became the least of a student's worries as he or she struggled with that ever-longer Christmas list, planned for the holiday ahead, and cheered the beginning of a new basketball and wrestling season. Even the teachers seemed to forget schoolwork, as they abandoned lesson plans, and with them, any hope for or- ganization. Those few who stubbornly held on to schedules drowned in a sea of assemblies and rallies, and a tidal wave of Christmas spirit. School couldn't be entirely forgotten, though. There were still those term papers due before vacation and the rush of tests given to get them out of the way. It was impossible to keep the Christmas spirit from invading Grant. Student Council saw a good thing and took advantage of it by organizing the Toys for Tots drive. The feeling of good will was evident as the students decorated the halls and doorways of Grant with an enthusiasm that hadn't been seen since last vacation.
