Santa’s Creation The first Santa Claus picture was printed in the 1863 H arper’s Weekly and a book of Christmas poems.

It was interesting also that Santa’s designer, Nast, also went on to be­ come famous as the designer of the Republican elephant and the Demo­ cratic donkey.

NO. 90 The ObserverFRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19,1993 THE INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER SERVING NOTRE DAME AND SAINT MARY'S Ferry sinks, at least 1 ,000 dead PETIT GOAVE, Haiti (AP} - A packed ferry carrying up to 1,500 people .sank in stormy seas off Haiti, and only 285 people were known to have survived, the Red Cross said Thursday. Survivors told how they clung to floating objects, in one case a bag of charcoal, to stay alive. "The sea was full of people," said one survivor, 29-year-old Madeleine Julien, from her hospital bed in this coastal town. "I kept bumping into drowned people." The ferry Neptune went down late Tuesday off Petit Goave, 60 miles west of the capital. But communications are so crude outside the capital it took a group of about 60 survivors a day to first report the accident. U.S. aircraft and vessels dispatched Thursday to help in search-and-rescue efforts reported "lots of debris and lots of bodies," said Coast Guard spokesman, Cmdr. Larry Mizell, liaison in Port-au­ Prince. The Coast Guard said it had found more than 100 bodies floating off Petit Goave. Bodies were earlier reported washing up on the beaches of Miragoane, 18 miles to the west of Petit Goave. Mizell said there was "no correlation between this and the boat people," referring to the tens of thousands of Haitians who have fled their homeland by sea since the army ousted elected President Jean-Bertrand Aristide in 1991.

    Barbie® Presents Unique Angela Merkel Barbie® Doll

    Barbie® Presents Unique Angela Merkel Barbie® Doll The German chancellor honoured by Mattel at International Toy Fair in Nuremberg On Thursday 5th of February, Barbie will unveil a one of a kind Angela Merkel Barbie doll in honour and recognition of Germany's first female chancellor at the 60th International Toy Fair in Nuremberg, Germany. Barbie has chosen to honour and recognise the Chancellor Merkel as a very modern role model for girls. Chancellor Merkel has successfully led her country while also having major impact with her work in Europe, where she recently received the Charlemagne Prize in recognition of her relentless work to reform the European Union. "Angela Merkel is an incredible role model and with this unique Angela Merkel Barbie Doll we want to honour and recognize her impact and influence on women all over the world to whom she has been a tremendous inspiration." said Richard Dickson, GM and Senior Vice President of Barbie. "For 50 years Barbie has inspired girls to believe they can be anything, and Chancellor Merkel certainly brings that message to life for girls worldwide." With Forbes Magazine naming her "the most powerful woman in the world at present time" for three years in a row, Angela Merkel represents what lies at the core of the Barbie brand. As Ruth Handler, Barbie's creator, explained; "My whole philosophy of Barbie was that through the doll, the little girl could be anything she wanted to be. Barbie always represented the fact that a woman has choices." The Angela Merkel Barbie doll will be exhibited at the International Toy Fair in Mattel's showroom from the 5th-10th February, beginning a year of celebrations to mark Barbie's five decades as a Fashion Icon and Princess of Pop culture.
