If two years can set a tradition, perhaps that's what the Senior Christmas Dance has done. This holi- day event has become the most elaborately decorated, romantic formal dance of the year. Before the dance Pep Club members of- fered a unique way of asking for one's Christmas Dance date-singing telegrams. Because the Commons was scheduled for several activites, decorating could not begin until the morning of December 8. For nine hours, the studentbody and class of- ficers worked to create a scene of winter and holiday festivities.
