C25 THE MAIQLEQIQQUQH DIAIQV 565 U I IDDQCQITIIDQP DECEMBER 1-Back to school. Enough said! DECEMBER 2-Mrs. Geritz's talk today was supplemented by a mar- velous talk by Mr. Eicham, the composer of the suite 1ava,', which is to be played at the Symphony this week. Wait until I make my first million . . . 1,11 have a yacht and sail all over the world too and listen to strange drums in the distant forests of the East! DE'CEMBER 10-Christmas vacation is rapidly approaching and we're all so busy on the Christmas Festival that itls a wonder we do anything else. This year we know it's going to be more colorful than ever. Heaven knows when I'll have time for you, dear Diary! DECEMBER 17-Tonight was the Christmas Festival, and it was a success. As usual the Junior High presented the Nativity, and the Senior High presented an imitation of an ancient medieval holiday. There was the yule log, the nobility, the peasant . . . everything was represented. Tumblers and dancers . . . even a puppet show and what a marvelous saint's play! Will any of us ever forget that deep base voice which be- longed to janet I-Iaskins, strangely become St. George . . . and the dragon that she so masterfully slew? Music and feasting and dancing . . . what memories for my last Christmas Festival at Marlborough! After supper we left for the three weeks of vacation. I shall send my children to Marl- borough. Then I can come back to the Festival, the happiest time of year! My sainted grandaunt! I almost forgot the most important hour of the day! We Seniors came very early to school to decorate the tree in the patio, and when Miss Blake came out to join us, we presented her with the Herzog von Marlborough, the dearest police puppy that we could find! And then we breakfasted in state! C421

J Cl l'l U Cl Pl, JANUARY 5-School opened again this morning after the busiest vaca- tion I've ever spent. Most of us looked as if we were coming back to school to rest up . . . even the teachers. During our vacation the staH of the Serendipity met and discussed plans for the annual. Goodness, there are things to be done in this New Year! JANUARY 8-Today at a meeting of the Student Body we discussed the new Honor Policy, which had been formulated by the Student Coun- cil and adopted by the school. It is one of the real steps in advance, I think . . . a splendid chance to develop the finest spirit at Marlborough. JANUARY 19-I bounced in on a meeting of the Assembly Committee today by mistake, and since no one seemed to object, I stayed to see the fireworks. The members are: Janet Haskins, chairman, Jaqueline Smith, Barbara Albertson, Tip Tweedy, Laura Lois January, Wanda Pike, Fran- ces Herron, Dickie Doheny, Mary Grigsby, and the faculty advisers, Miss Freese, Miss De Wolf, and Mr. Chase. I found that the function of the committee is to encourage the Monday assemblies by various organizations and to arrange a schedule for the programs. I was extremely interested in the variety of entertainment planned. JANUARY 23-The junior class has presented us all with song books! They are bound in loose leaf folders-a heavenly shade of green, and they contain all the old favorites and many of the new. It seems a very fitting contribution from the Junior class in view of the fact that they are the winners of the Song Contest. II441
