Holiday Cheer Grows as Vacation Nears Sleep became a luxury as Scots attempted to arrange crowded schedules to accomodate school- work, holiday jobs, and the numerous celebrations of December. At the French Club’s progressive dinner, the 50 participants feasted on authentic European dishes while absorbing the comments of a Frenchman about student revolts and dating customs of his country. Spanish Club members ended their four- course dinner with dessert at Miss Martha Marks’ apartment. Both Highlander and Bagpipe staff members met at Gail Obenchain’s home for their annual Christmas party. After dinner, the guests gathered around the Christmas tree as Santa Claus Bobby Crotty distributed the gifts they exchanged. December was the busiest month of the season for Scot basketballers, who won eight of their 12 games. Exhibiting desire and ability, they took first place in the Highland Park Tournament, tied for third place in the Austin Tournament, and ad- vanced fo the quarter finals of the Dr. Pepper Tournament. Programs given by the Scot choirs contributed to the holiday mood. The Lads and Lassies sang one night before the fountain at Northpark Mall and performed for the opening of One Main Place. The Highlandaires presented a group of old Eng- lish carols to the student body. Braving the possible misfortunes of Friday the 13th, Hi-Lites and their dates danced to the music of the Rogues at the semi-formal Christmas Ball. Highlander Band members followed their dance, “An Old-Fashioned Christmas,” with breakfast Scott Worthen’s home. Afier all the activities leading up 7 ured ten days of relaxation, Scots fought crowds to complete last-minute shopping. PAUSING IN THE exchange of surprise gifts, Diane Cory, Cindy Morgan, and Highlander sponsor Miss Diane Cook look on anxiously as grinning Brenda Neel opens her present at the publications Christmas party.
