At Cowan Hall, an enjoyable and impressive musical program was presented by the Modern Dance Club and A Cappella Choir. This included a candlelight procession by the choir, and the decoration of a Christ- mas tree by the dancers. At the close of the program, the students braved the bitter cold for a period of caroling throughout Westerville.
