Assemblies adap Freedom of assembly is a right guaranteed to students as citizens of Chatard and the United States. Students took advantage of this freedom as assemblies were held throughout the year to commemorate special Trojan occasions. Pep assemblies prepared the students for an up- coming game with resounding chants and cheers. Cul- tural assemblies permitted the students to hear about organizations of the outside world such as junior Achievement. The Glee Club and band presented a UUE' O CHREMS.

Spirit of Christmas prevails over all . inagi vm.: The winning door is decked by Anne Mascari and Terry Lyons. The familiar words, Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Menv assumed special meaning in the Christmas of 1969. At Chatard, the theme was expressed once more in the traditional window mural, where the letters of the word, Peace' contained symbols of the Nativity scene. The lobby doors were also decorated with the seasonal red and green of holly, berries, and bows. Another well-remembered feature of Christmas at Chatard were the classroom door decorations. Finished with the usual flurry before judging, cre- ations ranged from caricatures to mosaics. When all was done, senior homeroom 302 claimed first place with a design made from gold macaroni figures on blue foil. On Friday, December 19, the ideal send-off for the holiday was the Christmas assembly. The chorus sang numbers such as the Drummer Boy, with the student body free to join in on old favorites. . f an 4 .aw-K+ w'ggir' , r ' ' VFR i A - . .4 J 2, ,J-F' ...lil .Alb N 94 'AW xg, C 5 If Y 4 4 The true meaning of Christmas is captured in the classic manger scene depicting the birth of Christ. 52
