Christmas Activities, Fun And Spirited Tis th season to be jolly . That phrase went well around school during the Christmas season. In the main hall, there were two beautifully decorated trees. The media center played car- oles to create a warm, relaxed atmo- sphere. and some classes had deco- rated their doors in cheery fashions. Many students were festive in their own way. some kissed under mistletoe bought from the pep club, others wore red and green, and still others wore bells on their shoes to be seen as well as heard. Towards the end of the week, be- fore vacation time, the student body was treated to a fun and spirited Christmas assembly. Featuring a unique version of The Twelve Days of Christmas including ten macho men dressed as Las Seelies, some scream- ing freshman, lunch workers, and a principal in a hawk's nest. At the end. Santa, that cheery old elf, came and presented faculty members with gifts and surprises. All in all. the Christmas spirit was felt everywhere. The weather even coop- erated with a little snow for the effect of a white Christmas. Las SceHes imitators parody high march, splits, kicks Flying reindeer pause for a brief rest. 26 Christmas• Time

Assemblies Afford Escape From Everyday Routine All assemblies presented this year were planned and arranged by the studentbody officers. Several Na- tional School Assemblies which trav- el around to all schools in the valley visited Alta. Other assemblies, like the BYU Young Ambassadors and the Alt Engan ski movie were invited and arranged by the officers. The class assemblies were written and put on by members of that class. The Junior Assembly, emceed by Brad Sanders, was about the Bananamy Awards. The Bananamy Awards presented bananas to the best television shows of the year. Shawn Whitaker starred as a space cadet with his mechanical friend pub on the Sophomore class assembly. The highlight of the assembly was when Darin Brian, Chuck Cutler, Wendy Edrl, and Brian Kichevar presented d riddle of od- vertisements from television. The senior Assembly featured the traditional Senior movie starring Sen- ior class members in the film. Remember the assembly at the first of the school year where the bank in the fieldhouse charmed us with the song Just the Way You Are and their disco doncing? The Opera Assembly was enjoy- able (for all who went). The opera singers sang jovial songs from op- eras. Space cadet and friend pub narrate Sophomore Assembly I I 28 Assemblies
