Student Life Students show Christmas spirit in many ways Students exhibited Yuletide enthusiasm through club projects and their own initiative. SCA leaders decorated a large evergreen with lights, bulbs, and tinsel. The tree stood in the main hall. Boxes filled with canned goods donated by the students enabled needy families to have a merrier Christmas season. Music Department presented the annual Christ- mas concert December 14 in the auditorium. The mixed chorus sang 12 songs, the band played eight numbers, and the two groups performed “Hark, the Herald Angels Sing” together. Tri-Hi-Y and the Hi-Y combined efforts to produce the play, “Arise, the Light Has Come!” December 19. Lighting effects and music added spice to the biblical production. Administration also showed Christmas cheer. A small, decorated tree brightened up the main office. Hanging decorations and strings of evergreen decorated the guidance office. A vacation from December 19 to January 5 topped off a joyous Christmas season. A Christmas snowstorm provided perfect tobogganing con- ditions and freezing temperatures made ponds safe for ice skaters. CHRISTMAS SPIRIT — Dru Curd and Charles Norris deco rate the SCA sponsored Christmas tree placed in the mail hall to be viewed by students and visitors. ENTHUSIASTIC FANS— Students show spirit at the first basketball pep rally held in the gym December 5. 18
