PICTURE OF CHRISTMAS Gathering around the Christ- mas tree in the rotunda, students participated in the annual Christmas party, sponsored by the Social Committee. A high- light of the evening was the opportunity to go caroling at San Francisco General Hospital and a nearby rest home. Both students and patients en- joyed this time of singing. The students also spent time caroling with the student nurses of the hospitals. Returning to the school, a time of fun and refreshments concluded the evening.

LIVING FOR HIM Each semester, students, faculty and staff, set aside a week for spiritual emphasis. Special services in the morning and evening hours are highlighted by the messages given by the guest speaker. The speaker this semester was the Bev. Donald Bubna from the San Diego Christian and Missionary Alliance Church. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1 Time was also given to effectual prayer. Students participated in group prayer meetings with their re- spective counselors, in district prayer meetings, and in mission prayer bands. Students were also given the opportunity to seek personal guidance from pastor Bubna or any of the faculty or staff. l l REV. DONALD L. BUBNA A challenge from the lips of G0fl's servant.

Let's see, now, is this hill steep enough? I just though it would be nice! f Harry Ecklundj Oh hey can you see? WINTER WONDER LAN D Now according to the theory of theology . . fMr. jones and Mr. Civenj I give! Who forgot the buns? Grass Valley, California, was the scene of the Simpson snow retreat held between semesters. Many families in Crass Valley opened their homes to approximately forty students, faculty and staff members, who participated in activities such as sledding, snowball fights, a Weiner roast and hayride. On Sunday, the students provided special music for the Crass Valley Congregational Church. While the students were away, history was made in San Francisco, for it snowed almost 1-2 inches for the first time in approximately 25 years. Thus, the students at school enjoyed making a snowman and playing in the snow.
