Modern Dance portrays the moods of Christmas. Bama and Steve sing Walkin' in a Winter Wonderland 0b1'f.!'l'M8.!'.' Secular and Sacred Gahrls music department presented our annual Christmas program on December 13. The secular part of the program featured the vocal groups, and soloists Barbara Gorman, Bama Keys, Tom Bickal, and Pat Cloud. The songleaders enacted 'The Twelve Days of Christmas--Hawaiian Stylew to the accompaniment of the Drill Team. The second part of the program, which emphasized the sacred aspect of Christmas, centered around Turner's cantata, The Savior Has Come to Earthf narrated by Steve Shaffer and sung by the vocal groups with solos by Linda Arrellanes, Carol Becker, Kathy DeHaan, Linda Doyle, Barbara Gorman, Lindy Jackson, Robert Leal, Clayton Thompson, and Sue'Williams. Modern Dance students performed in both parts of the show. Since Miss DeLo was unable to be present during the weeks of rehearsal, Mrs. Frederickson, her right-hand-man,', deserves much of the credit for the success of the program. Gahr's band gets into the spirit of Christmas. Pat Cloud performs banjo solo.

Ibe Crucible The nights of December 8 and 9 climaxed six weeks of rehearsals and preparations by the drama depart- ment for their production of The Crucible by Arthur Miller. Financially and theatrically a success, this allegorical drama of the early witchcraft trials in New England drew the largest audiences of any of Gahras productions. Much of this enthusiasm was evoked by the skill with which Karen Wray and Bob Lopez handled the leads. Each of the 20 cast members have good reason to be proud of the presentation. Passionate and bitter conflicts were to blame for the tension felt between John and Elzzabeth Proctor. Ibe East 1?
