The Christmas season was, in the opinion of many of the students, the loveliest of all times as far as celebration and festival go. Beginning with the The boar's head carriers - Heidi Howell, Mandy Maultsby, Donna Ashe, and Donlyn Litchford - practice carrying the boar's head trays before the Ceremony begins.

Lisa Dodson, Karen Snitzer, Professor Yolanda Yoder, Professor Darlene Fulk, Adelaide Davis, Winnie Bryce, Lidia Figiel, and Professor ,Jane Hadley read the traditional Christmas scripture readings. The burning of the Yule Log was a brief yet still enjoyable celebration in which c it Qi Ninn' 'ii 1- -2, . . ' QL . . 4? I ' hi. y nf 3' I' A 'Y .gkl-I iajss' .L 'B . D .X v 313' 'I I .
