| OCRText | Christmas spirits dimmed A star on a mountain, flicker- ing in the frosty winter air, looks beautiful sending feelings of warmth, good spirit, and closeness through you. It’s rea- son for being there is not so pleasant. In November, 1979, Fifty-two Americans were taken hostage by Iranian students in Iran. As weeks led to months and our people were still being held in captivity, Christmas of 1979 was upon us. As is the tradition in El Paso, the star was lit. But.after i p 24 Student Life ending the season, it remained lit in honor and rememberance of these brave men and wom- en. The star, star of hope; peace, and love, would be alight until their safe return. Through fourteen months it stayed lit; another Christmas came and went. For a short while in the New Year the pic- ture for the hostages was hope- ful. For the students and faculty at SHS, it returned to normalcy at school. There were many events to participate in. There was a blood drive sponsored by Student Council; Christmas gram sales, and a door decorat- ing contest. There was a Christ- mas Choir, along with the Span- ish club visiting an orphanage and a small program for a nurs- ing home by the FHA-HERO. Even with all this excitement, SHS was still wondering when our people would be freed. On January 20, 1981 after 444 days of personal and national an- guish, the American hostages were allowed to go free. |
