Miniature har- monicas were distributed at the door. Seasonal cider and doughnuts were served to refresh the enthusiastic dan- cers and performers.

At our very first L'Sweetheart Dancef' Jim DeMarinis, President of the First Friday Club, crowned Freshman Marybeth Baish as Baraga's Sweetheartf The other class sweethearts - Senior Marigail Jandron, Soph- omore Joyce Jandron, and Junior Mary Court- ney - were presented 'with corsages. Cupids, hearts, and four big giant hearts where the can- didates carried out their voting campaigns adorned the auditorium and completed the Sweetheart', theme - even to honoring Our Blessed Mother as Everybody,s Sweetheart with a special shrine on the stage. CHRISTMAS DANCE - Ranking next to the Prom is the annual, semi-formal Senior Christmas Dance, and, judging from all comments overheard the next day, ours was most successful. Maybe its success was due partly to the fact that our class broke two tradi- tions in putting on the dance: we obtained permission from Father McKevitt to decorate the auditorium in- stead of the gym and also to extend invitations to the students of the other high schools in Marquette. Dancing to the music of the '4Rhythmaires, boys and girls revolved around a Giant Christmas Tree dec- orated with colored lights, white snow, and bright sil- ver tinsel. During intermission everyone gathered 'round the piano to sing the old traditional Christmas Carols while enjoying steaming hot Wassail Bowl and Christmas cookies featured at the refreshment table.
