The approaching Christmas season was heralded by the hanging of the greens, giving the entire campus a festive air. Cardinal Key again decorated the chapel, providing a holiday atmosphere for all chapel-goers. Handel's The Messiah” was again pre- sented under the direction of Professor Oscar Lyders at the City Auditorium by a chorus of 170 voices, six soloists, two of whom were Midlanders Doris and Bob Eckert, and a string quartet. The two campus dormitories, Beegle Hall and Men's Memorial Hall, opened their doors to the visiting public, the former in traditional observance of the event and the latter for the first time. Several campus organizations held Christ- mas parties in the weeks before the holi- days. Climaxing all these affairs was the all-college Christmas Party in the Gym- nasium under sponsorship of the Student Council on the eve of the students' and faculty's departure for a two-week vacation.
