DECEMBER tound us saying good- bye to football tor another year and greeting basketball. Capping the season was the fall Sports Banquet giving recognition to the outstanding players. December also marked elec- tions for Associated Students, As- sociated Men Students, and Asso- ciated Women Students. Activity dominated campus as the Christmas season approached. Assemblies, caroling and lust iolly laughing and talking prevailed with Phoenix College students. Christmas vacation brought peace and quiet to all. But we had to come back another year in time tor semester exams. FOR THE CHRISTMAS ASSEMBLY, songs of tradition which gloried in the scent of pine and crisp air were the vogue, while the Bible's Nativity Story and the popular Littlest Angel completed the program. i R, A-VW' 3 QF' X X X PM i'A Y a f - it ,V A .- iff.

PROMOTION OF PHOENIX COLLEGE to the public and prospective students is the choir's work, and it handled that iob extremely well. During December A Cappella Choir began to buzz with the excitement of coming Christmas concerts. Valley clubs, resorts, and business establishments all put their bids in early for possible performance dates. One of these engagements was the 3lst annual Valley Bank Concert. Besides appearing in Phoenix College's Christ- mas Assembly, the choir also put in a half-hour TV appearance. Officers John Bradshaw, Gary Patrick, Margie Wright, Barbara Sanford, and Nancy Greene kept the organization on its toes. lAnd with 104 members, that means a lot of toeslj Mr. Hakes is well-known and admired throughout the country as one of its foremost musical directors. From a small group of madrigal singers, he developed his choir into an extension of valley cultural activity and the second a cappella choir to be organized in the state. He encouraged many talented individuals who have gone on to Ioin professional chorals. Choir members learn more than music theory and appreciation, they gain the invaluable experience of working with others and mixing business with pleasure.
