It was almost like eating in the roadside cafes of Paris . . . Rome . . . Grads provid- ed good service and entertainment to Mult- nomah students in the dining hall. Of course they prefered tips for their service. tThe ulterior motive was SS for the grad class retreatl. Christmas carolers, wrapped in their warm fuzzies, sang at individual tables. Then of course there was the kazoo band that played special requests. The best of all was Jolly Santa Greenman with his empty bag of goodies and a quick trip through the cafeteria.

The first week the girls had a heart brother for whom they could do things for like leave an anonymous note in their box, or even some goodies. The second week the guys had a hand at it. Wow!

Names of the secret pals were disclosed at an ice cream social in the dining hall on the last night. M' W5 Preview Weekend. An untold number of high school students C plus even some older types!

Q 11x 'hr-L V 1 1 1 W3 Christmas Vespers. The choir, chorale, and various vocal and instrumental ensembles all shared a part in the Christmas Vespers presentation. The two main divisions in the program were en- titled Christ's Birth in Bethlehem and Christ's Impact on Humanity . The at- mosphere was informal as visitors brought pillows and sat together on the floor of the gym. The audience was invited to join in on several familiar carols. Especially en- joyable was the choir's presentation of the calypso Mary's Boy-Child featuring soloist Teresa Higer. M Grads Went Christmas Caroling. There's nothing like singing in the gloom! It was pretty wet out, and while playing follow the car to the next rest home, Les Winslow had to drive Mary Lyn Hil1strom's car out of a monstrous mud hole. Slush! Even though only a few grads went there were many elderly faces that were brightened. ll Close of Fall Semester. A door opens as a room full of students spill out onto the sidewalk, some screaming - some running - one even jumped up and clicked his heels. One would have thought they had just won a basketball game. No? Would you believe just finishing their last exam of the semester?! December 18 - an afternoon of pants tgirlsl and dragging heavy suitcases to overloaded cars while exhausted students pray for alertness on the highway. PTL! The projects are completed, the exams are written - we don't know how we did, but there's nothing we can do about it now! Merry Christmas!! bl M55 Y
