French Night Scrapbook On a Saturday night in October, our cafeteria was transformed into Le Cafe Saint Marks. The Occasion was the per- forming arts annual ethnic night. This year's audiences were entertained right and left by can-can girls, French mimes, and singing peasants. Performances started even before the meal. Mime troupe did a repertoire of their street mimes, then, as people entered they were welcomed by the music of the orchestra. Throughout the evening, the madrigals sang, Larry Mason sang, and members of the orchestra played flute solos. The highlight of the evening came when Orchesis performed an authentic French can-can. Altogether it was an enjoyable evening for all. Providing that long hours of tedious hard rehearsal really do pay off, the Drama club put on a fantastic show this year. Titled Scrapbook, the show was a musical review through the decades. It boasted songs from such shows as Annie, Grease, Hair, and many others. Highlights ofthe show were Cady Huffman, singing and dancing in the song The Music and the Mirror, and the whole cast's rousing rendition of Let the Sun Shine. Squeezing a whole show into three weeks of rehearsal wasn't easy, but as one reviewer put it, lf this is any indication of what the San Marcos' drama department has to offer, we're in for a great year. 3

'Twas The Night . . . This year's Noel in White did not begin at 9:00 on a Saturday night as many people might think. On the con- trary, it began many months before with extensive planning and organiz- ing. First on the list was a theme. Sug- gestions ranged from DEVO Christmas to Christmas at Crandma's. ln the end they decided upon the traditional Christmas song, 't1Twas the night before Christmas to use as a basis for starting plans. Then came the many days of finding a place to hold hold the dance, finding out if a person had the talent to make paper snowflakes, or it- they were better in the kitchen baking cookies. Finally it wound down to the date of Saturday, December 15th. At 2:30 a large group of teenagers appeared at the student center of City College, decked with a pile of Christ- mas ornaments and bulbs, ready to set up for the dance. Then the time came, and at 9:00 the doors opened. A multi- tude of happy couples filtered into the room, ready to enjoy themselves and dance to the music of the band Sec- ond Wind. The spirit of the evening peaked as they announced that the 1979 Snow King and Queen were Mark Battistone and Jenny Howard. 1. Couples dance to a slow song at Noel in White. 2.
