Wi? FEMDLW THE ACTIVITIES BEAT WENT CN THROUGH WINTER, LIVENING THE 0LD YEAR AND KINDLING THE NEW Despite harsh weather making transportation difficult, a selection of winter functions attracted students, and numerous in-school activities compensated for impractical evening events. The holiday season was spiked with a plethora of goings-on. Kicking off the festivities was the junior class dance, Here Comes Santa Claus in a Winter Wonderland' Held on December 8, the dance featured sounds by B 8. S Disco and a jolly Snta CLeonard Dykesj lending an ear to Christmas wishes. The National Honor Society Faculty Tea on December 19 gave teachers a v serene lunch hour break with soothing orchestral entertainment. The week before Christmas caught all in a flurry of school activities. Candy canes, bows, and cards were sold and delivered. On the last school day before vacation the afternoon was scheduled full with the Faculty vs. Boys' Varsity basketball game fifth hour and a disco dance in the gym or the Thespian Club production of Dickens' A Christmas Carol sixth hour. These happenings gave students a jovial start to their week of vacation. Steppin' to the beat of the Christmas dance are Joe Miller and Carmel Minoque. lnventive shooting techniques were attempted by those lined up for a half-court try at a free case of pop. 2 i S . S .

Homeroom door decorations add to a festive school On Thursday, January 25, the fire alarm rudely interrupted fifth hour classes. Anticipating a mere drill, students were disconcerted by thick smoke cloudlng the upstairs hallways. The minor fire of presumed electrical origin damaged only custodial equipment in a closet by an upstairs lavatory. Fire fighters ascertained that no flame persisted, and students were permitted to desert the chilly parking lots for Stage Band entertainment in the gym. Classes resumed late in sixth hour, and, while fumes did remain, the ordeal had been but a flash in thecan. . WN
