It Looked a Lot Like Christmas in Woodrow the Week Before Christmas spirit was evident at Woodrow this year in everything from caroling in the halls to Seasons Greetings cups in the cafeteria. Rooms were decorated, trees went up around the school and a general spirit of the season prevailed. Before school was dismissed for a two-week vacation, students and faculty witnessed the choir's traditional Christmas program, directed by the new choral music teacher, Mrs. Marcal Lee Bircher. Mr. Garmon and Mis Mallewick don't appear hesitant over Chrisfmos goodies prepored by the homemoking deportment. Newspaper-staffers, Holly Harrington, Karen Matney, and Jack Sehwen resort to hanging candy cones on the room Chrisfmos tree. 30 STUDENT LIFE
