Christmas Enlightens Days Christmas week began with excitement brewing in the air. Students searched their minds to think of a creative door design. Doors reflected the cur- rent pastimes with decorations of toga parties and idol Steve Martin. Mrs. Martha Roark's home room won the contest with a Sesame Street design. Foreign Language students gathered in the cafeteria and caroled Christmas songs. The German, French, and Spanish students sang in their respective languages and finally harmon- ized together in English. The Christmas assembly cli- maxed the short week. The fac- ulty choir sang an arrangement of Christmas carols, while choir members performed various Christmas melodies. Student Council representatives did a production of Charles Schulz's A Charlie Brown Christmas. School finally ended at 2:30 on Wednesday afternoon. Stu- dents had various activities planned for the holiday. Many spread about the nation on ski trips, and others enjoyed family holidays at home. Some of the foreign songs included France's Un Flam- beau Jeanette Isabelle and Germany's Stille Nacht and O Tannenbaum. (A) Recently popular comedian Steve Martin poses for a door decoration.
