CHRISTMAS SPIRIT is a contagious commodity. Probably the chief reason for the spread of that happy feeling at RCC this year was the great number of happy teachers that inhabited the campus. One of them was Fleming Smith, long- time business department instructor, who ran away with the title of Teacher with the Merriest Twinkle. There was good cheer throughout the campus immediately preceding the annual Christ- mas recess, with a well-attended Christmas As- sembly, and the usual Wassail celebration, which warmed the cockles of many a cold heart. SPIRITED PAIR - Randy Snook and Jill Godwin were two of the participants in the annual Christmas play at Open House. HAPPY GATHERING - Among all these familiar faces Santa Claus can still be identified because of his beard and the great big buckle. Some other faces in the crowd: Bob Harold, Maureen Whitaker, Marsha Smith, Caren Vassily, Jill Godwin, Randy Snook, and Mike Rudolph as Santa Claus.

Christmas Was a Warm Event YULE SINGERS - Christmas with no music would be no Christmas at all and the Vocalaires guaranteed the presence of the Christmas Spirit with a medley of the traditional tunes of the season at the Christmas Assembly. Dr. Edwin Sayre directs the Vocalaires. The group has gained a high reputation for musical excellence. CHRISTMAS IN Riverside is disappointing for the bulk of its citizenry, most of whom come from the East. There is no snow here, for instance, and everyone knows that with no snow there can hardly be a White Christmas. And there ' s no cold weather either, to speak of, so the hot rum serves quite a different purpose than it does in the frozen East where it is necessary(?) for warmth and good health. The one-horse-open-sleigh which jingles and jangles has been replaced by the many-horsepowered-Honda. And, according to California ' s many critics, the only thing that jingles at Christmas time is the change in the busi- nessman ' s money belt. BUT REAL Californians — especially the new gen- eration of students such as those at RCC — know better. They know that the associations between cold, clamy weather and Christmas are largely re- lated to the comparative old age (chronological and otherwise) of the eastern region of the U.S. In the East its cold at Christmas, therefore eastern- ers expect snow, and if they don ' t get it, they fret and wonder why Christmas just seems to be different in California. Different than it was back East, yes. Different than it was when Christ was born in Bethlehem. At Riverside City College Christ ' s birth is celebrated with religious music and true charity. Too bad about the snow.
