(jfr p rn - f . , . r7 r Jju jhristine Jebevec AnTostal, the annual week-long celebration of the end of a harsh South Bend winter, gives Notre Dame students a chance to relieve their spring fe- ver. Unfortunately, though, spring did not show its face on AnTostal 1995 until late into the week, forcing many outdoor ac- tivities planned to take place out on the quads to take place indoors away from the rain. Once Friday came, the clouds finally disappeared long enough for students to escape their usual, day- to-day routine and enjoy the sunny afternoon tie- dying T-shirts, making cot- ton candy, playing laser ring a J !2) tag and boxing in a color- ful, padded arena. A steel-drum band sent sounds throughout cam- pus, while brave students with a sense of humor were asked to model their back- sides for a sketching con- test. Once again, a few well-known faces on cam- pus (such as cheerleaders and athletes) sacrificed an afternoon to sit in the dunk tank, waiting for a lucky shot to send them into the freezing water. The Blue and Gold game finished off AnTostal week, and, suddenly the spring fling was over. The time enjoying the sun and fun, must now be spent in the library preparing for the arrival of finals. Although no clowns were present, students concocted such treats as cotton candy, usually only available at Circus dinner. photo by Jeff Roth photo hy Jeff Roth

The thunder and ice storm left the campus feeling very unlike April. Every tree branch was covered with a layer of ice and the Dome appeared to fade into a white winter sky. The Statue of Jesus with outstretched arms, which faces the Dome, was knocked from its pedestal by a fallen tree branch. photo by Jeff Roth St. Edward ' s Hall ' s creation boasted a volcano, plastic flamingo, torches, and working grill. The sailors offered hotdogs to opponents and even the lifeguards. 6 Jn Keuieai
