TECHOIR prepares for the Halleluiah Chorus on the Monument Circle. 7 lt's Christnias at Tech again Christmas time came to Tech in the hearts of all. It seemed as though the entire campus changed during the two to three weeks moving up to Christmas. The season was started by the Music Department's annual presentation of Christmas in the Round, which features most of the major music groups at Tech. Keeping in stride with the merriment, the different organizations had their individual activities. lce skating was sponsored by the SAO, while the 300 program sponsored a roller skating party. During all this, the Sen- ior Council featured a dance on December l 3 in the Cafeteria. Key Club, with SAO assistance, completed a successful Toys-for-Tots drive on campus, adding more to the true feeling of the season. Other club activities took place in the Service Club, XYZ Club, and SAO. Then on the last Friday before vacation the Techoir embarked on a city-wide caroling spree, bringing a wonderful sound to many downtown business people and shoppers, followed by caroling to friends of Tech on the Monday after. However, the Tech Christmas was not over until the Techoir Christmas Special was seen on TV on December 24. lt's obvious that the Christmas spirit was at Tech.

Saluting JER:-:ATS comme ction Tech has a very special neighboring school. Some of its students take a few classes here at Tech. Which school does this? The James E. Roberts School, of course. The Roberts School was formed for the purpose of teaching handicapped children and giving them physical and occupational therapy. The school runs on the same schedule as all city public schools. Every child is trans- ported by bus to and from the school. There are three special buses assigned iust for the students in wheel chairs. These buses have a lift on the side that raises the chairs onto the base of the bus. The chairs are then tied down and the students have safety belts to hold them in. This year, Roberts School will be send- ing us six graduates. These seniors are enrolled in a senior roll room and all take at least one class here at Tech. Some of these classes include biology, house con- struction, child development, and classes in the Career Center. There are also other Roberts students attending here from freshmen to seniors.
