The Christmas Season On December 9, the season to be jolly was successfully opened at Webb with the annual Christ- mas dance. Since Christmas is also a time for giving, the spirit of sharing was also a very important part of Webb's Christmas activities. In the Boys' School the Lettermen sponsored a student-faculty volleyball game as part of a drive for food, clothing, toys, and money for needy families in Knoxville. The girls' classes enjoyed playing Santa to six welfare children and filling Christmas bags for servicemen in Vietnam. The Glee Club had a busy season, with an appearance on television in addition to their annual Christmas concert at Webb. The seventh grade girls' chorus also presented a program of Chrismas music, in support of the A.F.S. fund. The finishing touch to Webb's Christmas season came, however, with the week of term exams and ultimately the promise of vacation. Students actually study!

la-' r 7 AFS Carnival Breaks All Records The annual American Field Service Carnival raises money to bring a foreign exchange student to Webb each year. A crowd of several hundred attended the games, tests of skill, and entertainment offered at this year's carnival, which was held on the night of Saturday, February 3. The carnival was one of the most successful yet, for over S1340 was raised. The co-chairmen of the carnival were Mr. James Q. Webber and Mrs. Donald F. Paine, who, with many of the faculty and student body, devoted much of their time and energy to the carnival. Among the attractions this year were the seventh grade cake walk, the eighth grade casino, and the ninth grade pie throw. There were also the junior horror house, a discotheque, bingo, and the Psychedelic Psnack Pshopi' in the Boys' Building, and a dunking stool, putting green, and basketball throw in the gym. There was a show - after the carnival itself - in the gym, which included Mac s Novelty Hawaiians, a trio which donated their talents, and Faviola and the Dillards, a group of Webb Students. The American Field Service is a foreign exchange organization for high school students, which in 1967 brought more than 3000 students to the United States from sixty countries. This year's A.F.S. student was Lorenza Pampaloni from Florence, Italy, who is staying with Lindsay Young, an A.F.S.-er in her own right. Lindsay spent the summer of 1967 in France - in a chateau in the Loire valley. Vicki tries her skill in the eighth grade game room.
