Christmas Yuletide at Paxton High is a time for decorations, parties, and gleeful anticipation of the coming vacation. This year the Christmas scene was dominated by two trees in the lobby, and special decorations, on Christmas themes, prepared for the lobby walls by the art classes. The day before vacation the Student Council showed a movie thriller, “Murders in the Rue Morgue”. The traditional Christmas Dance, was held on Dec. 16. “The Enchantment of Christmas” was just that—a beautiful, enchanting dance. Lynn Robbins and Hans Holmgren were crowned Christmas King and Queen, attended by Carol Meuser and Steve Coplea, juniors; Jane Wilson and Terry Lee, sophomores; and Sandy Stewart and Jim Wess-lund, freshmen. Truly the Christmas spirit reigned at Paxton High.

18 Variety Show On April 13, the curtain flew open to the wild sounds of the Stage Band. Stylized town houses and matching gaslights, in psyche-delic colors, became the background for the P.C.H.S. Variety Show “Gaslight”. The performance moved from a take-off on Bill Cosby’s “Tonsils” to an African-style modern dance performed under black lights, through an operatic version of “Jack and Jill”, to a smoothly choreographed “Mood Indigo”. Fan- tastic lighting effects accompanied the various skits: a barber shop quartet; the Smothers Sisters; Up on the Farm, a jazz dance; arrangements by the Stage Band; and a jazzed-up version of “Sentimental Journey”, sung by the Madrigals. The show closed with the entire cast and directors, Mr. Jerry Hart and Miss Susan Weller, singing and swaying as they presented “ ... on the ‘Gaslight Side’ of the Street”. Above: Jack and Jill quartet sin;? about the perilous adventures of the two children who went up the hill. Right: The entire cast of Gaslight sways to the finale.
