XJl14 ihhll-f ii: X our dramatists are busy in Caswell Hall, which is filled with rising young actresses. ln that hall of fame three unobtrusive Freshmen garbed as wise men Csuch ironyl chat with Santa Claus Karr. Simple Simon Ca Seniorll carries on a whispered conversation with her foil, a rising Iunior. Morris-dancer Murphy tries unsuccessfully to quiet Tawney , whose friendly but fero- cious bark frightens our handsome Duke Montague. Dancers and English peasants drape themselves happily over empty desks while in the Music Studio Miss Dickinson runs the chorus through Silent Night.

Everyone everywherel And then at last the night of nightsl A golden sun sets on an expectant vicinity. Eager guests and twinkling stars arrive at the same time to view our Christmas Festival. At last! In our moonlit patio we are greeted by the odor of a shimmering Christ- mas tree, decorated so bright and early in the morning by the Seniors.

Murrow McCurnin CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL ECEMBER always brings with it an eager anticipation of the oncoming vacation, an exciting 'lMerrie Christmas feeling, and an important preoccupied air of something to do. Even the thought of this last feeling sends thrills up one's spine. Why, just to know that on that night of nights one will be a gay Morris Dancer or a flame-coped Christmas Caroler is enough to turn even a Violet pink with pride, and then white again with the worry as to whether one whirls and dips or dips and whirlsl Do you wonder that this night of all nights at Marlborough and the preparations for it are looked forward to with more anticipation than anything else except perhaps Christmas morning?
