The Show Must Go On!!! We know you ' ve got it! Now flaunt it! The choir-sponsored Talent Show certain- ly did provide a stage for the many and varied kinds of talent that abound at Guil- ford. The show livened up a dull Thursday night in early November and soon the standing-room-only Sternberger Audito- rium was rocking to many different musi- cal rhythms. Livia Wade sang two folk ballads; her lovely fluting soprano and own guitar accompaniment perfectly comple- mented each other. Andy Falley sang and played some more contemporary songs from Crosby, Stills, and Nash and the Grateful Dead. Chris Deelsnyder and company were showcased near the finale of the show, and had the old joint rocking with their clearly professional rock and roll. Our guests, the Greensboro College Choir, added some harmonic gospel to the melange of musical offerings. Other entertainment was provided by that charismatic star of stage, screen and AJ department, John Grice, this year ' s Master of ceremonies. His threat of bad jokes between acts prompted a few laughs and many groans from the heckling, but good-natured crowd. The judges ' task was evidently not an easy one. With such diversity of talent, nearly anyone could have carried away the winning place. The prize was eventually won by Cindi Sparks, who signed and danced to I Hear Your Hand. Cindi ' s performance was clearly a crowd-pleaser; she received a standing ovation, and many a person was moved by the fact that she could not hear the audience ' s roaring ap- preciation. 6UXLF0RD COUEGE TALENT SEARCH Steve Williams plays for the crowd his harmoni and guitar solo.

A Formal Celebration Gathering in tiie lialls of the Hilton, stude off of the dance floor. ' Twas the season of Christmas, and the Binford girls once again treated the cam- pus with their annual Christmas Formal. This year the big event was held at the Hilton in downtown Greensboro on Fri- day, December 6, 1985. Everyone came to the dance decked out in holiday splendor. The music was terrif- ic, and the small dance floor was packed and overflowing during nearly every dance. Many students extended their holiday celebration to a series of private parties upstairs. The hotel wisely and generously reserved the sixth floor of the building for the Guilfordian festivities. All in all the evening was a great success; the Hilton suffered little and a wonderful time was had by all. President Rogers lets himself go on the danccfloor. Dressed up in classy clothes and smiles. Sam Jones. Nicole Gaymon. and Martha Barnctt enjoy the dance.
