At W. c. the Christmas spirit

entertained with Christmas
dances.
During the day boys arrived
from the nearby colleges te

to the dances and Christmas

Early in the evening groups of
young folks gathered in a dormi-

of the weekend activities.
AQUACARANA
The Dolphin Seal Water Pag-
cant, the "Aquacabana," was
presented by that club both Fri

College pool. The theme tended
towards nightclub life, carried

formation, swimming to music.

program.
During the pageant, I noticed
several familiar faces. Whining
