ZttthbalU A&AemhUf Audience
The RJC annual Christmas assembly program was held in Coffman
Hall this morning., A one-act play, "The Lighting of the Christmas Tree"
was staged under the direction of Miss Flora McGhee, and Mr. Sidney
Suddendorf directed the Chorus in several numbers.
The cast for this Scandinavian
play included Olga, the mistress
of Lofdala, a Swedish country
place, played by Delores Kreinbring; Liljer Krona, Olga's husband,
Harris Hornseth; Ruster, the old
flute player, portrayed by Evan
Evanhoff; Oswald and Sigrid, the
children, by Jim Brough and Gloria
Frutiger. Lois Peterson played
Halla, the cook, and George Howell gave us Torstein, the man servant.
Richard Maass was stage manager,  and  Barbara  Bach  was  in I
charge of backstage lighting.
The audience of J. C. students'
and faculty members, watched Olga
turn away an unwelcome guest,
Ruster, during the Christmas season—thereby destroying the Christmas spirit in her own home. No
sooner had Ruster gone than everything went wrong in the home, and

Busy, indeed,, and versatile, too,
are many of the general secretarial
students who are taking time out
at the end of a busy school day to
earn part of their school expenses.
The nature of the jobs and the
number, of the hours available for
work varies, depending on fhe student's interest and how the school
schedule fits into the individual picture. It is almost general that each
student is in her respective place
for work at a little after four
o'clock each day. A report of
their assignments is mighty interesting and commendable, as it does
prove that these students are ambitious as well as .versatile.

Music! Dancing! .Frivolity! Fun!
This atmosphere prevailed at the
Valencia Ballroom last Thursday
night when the Junior College
Christmas formal was held. A
large crowd attended and all enjoyed the dance music furnished by
Henry Burton and his orchestra.
Faculty chaperones were Mr. and
Mrs. L. E. Rudberg and Mr. and
Mrs. G. Paul. A number of the
other faculty members also attended.
The stage at the Valencia was
appropriately decorated with red.
tinfoil and green wreaths, and a
Christmas tree. Red and green
streamers hung from the ceiling,
and red and green lights were
used. Gay formals blended in to
make a colorful Yuletide scene.
The members of the Social Committee who were in charge of planning the dance were Kay Olson,
Nancy Kendall, Mary Klug, Jackie
Aird, Barbara Schnobrich, Richard
Allen, Harris Hornseth, Jim Lundquist, Jim Sullivan, Beatrice Lawler,
and Bob Ingalls. The Varsity Club
took care of the advance ticket
sales and awarded two free tickets
to the dance and a $3.50 corsage
to the winner.

Once again the season of "Peace on Earth and Good-
Toward All Men" is approaching.
Greetings, presents, and other evidences of goodwill will soon burden our firesides. These are evidences
of-a desire on the part of all to spread the spirit of the
Prince of Peace.
The College staff extends to all the Season^ Greetings and the w'uh that you may have your share of all that
the season signifies. Our wish is, of course, for a Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Year, but more important is
the wish that, in our educational, community, home, and
church activities, a greater effort be made to extend the
spirit of Christmas throughout the year. If this were done,
many of our problems would be solved or disappear.
Let us make a New Year's resolution to this end.
