Christmas Brings Holiday Spirit to the Campus Christmas, 1965, found the campus and buildings of General Beadle State College trimmed with Christmas and all its glitter. The annual Christmas Dinner Dance was held on Wednesday night, December 15, in the Memorial Gym- nasium. The F 8a M Catering Service furnished the din- ner and the Melotones provided the music. Lowry, Zimmermann and Higbie Halls each had room decorating contests which helped add to the Christmas spirit. Huge, light-trimmed Christmas trees adorned the lounges of the Trojan Center and Zimmermann and Lowry Halls. The evergreen tree beside Kennedy Hall was also bright and sparkling with lights. The beauty of Christmas, 1965, will be remembered for years to come. ATkLEFT: Mel. Schroder is assisted by a city maintenance Of er os he trams the large evergreen west of Kennedy Hall. 156
