W DECEMBER Christmas influences ideas for programs, projects, parties December brought joy, confusion, and disappointment to Sahuaro's students. Jumping to an excitingly disheartened basketball season, the team opened to win their first two contests, only to end December with a record of three wins and three loses. Class of '72' spread spirit through the halls, giv- ing candy canes to all who wanted one for a slight charge of twenty cents per cane. The seniors also took ad- vantage of the Christmas spirit and sold balloons at the home basketball games. The balloons gave enjoyment to those who bought them and tested the patience of those who had to sit be- hind them. Confusion broke out on the campus because of the Student Coun- cil Convention which Sahuaro hosted. High schools throughout Arizona sent student council officers to represent them. Season's greetings were spread through the audience at the Orchestra and Choirs Christmas Concert. Class parties were common scenes as the day before Christmas holidays created an- ticipation. Wandering students made the halls too noisy for regular class. STUDENT LIFE 37

JANUARY Banquet replaces promg faculty show a Sahuaro first Encouraged by the Sahuaro Improve- ment Committee, the faculty gave Sahuaro's first faculty show on January 13. The faculty presented musical and comical skits to help raise money for a trophy case for Sahuaro. Later in the month, the junior class replaced the Jr.-Sr. prom with a Jr.-Sr. dinner-dance combination. A buffet dinner was held, after which the Juniors saluted the Seniors through a short awards pro- gram. The rest of January was lacking in student activities in order for both faculty and students to prepare for the semester exams at the end of the month. Despite the worries of exams, students somehow found time to start new fads. Some students brought yo- yos, reminding many of their elemen- tary school days. STU DE NT LIFE 39
