W ith . the liltin g notes of Christ­mas

And Mi gosh, remember how' you
felt last year when Uncle Fred
sent you the picture album, when
he was in Japan, and you hadn't
given him a thing. You feel as if
the problems of gift-giving are
bearing you down, and yet the
electric current of the age-old
Christmas spirit buoys up your
feelings and you decide to go right
back to the dorm and make out
your list all over again. Then
you remember that registration is

Large Audience Enjoys
Beal-Adel Piano M u sic a l
An unusually large and very ap
Preciative audience enjoyed the
duo-piano music ale pre sented by
Mrs. Catharine Adel and Miss
Barbara Beal Sunday afternoon in
the auditorium of Ashurst Music
Hall.
Following a beautifully played
program of music by Mozart. Mit-tler,
and Clementi-Timmo, the two
Piano artists were called back for
encore musir The audience was
or»e of the largest to attend a re
cital in the music hall.
The event was sponsored by Del

Heavy Christmas Activities
Precede 2-Week Holiday
Next Drama Well
Underway-Holy
“The Caine Mutiny Court M a r­tia
l” is progressing in fine shape
according to Ralph J. Holly, d ir­ector.
Mr. Holly reports that the
cast are doing well with their parts
and show promise of a good per­formance.
The play holds deep psycholog­ical
impact in the character of Lt.
Com. Philip Queeg, a m a jo r role
played by Tom Baker. The young
Lieutenant, Pete Pearsall, who re­lieved
his captain of the sh ip s
command, did so because he felt
the captain was mentally incom­petent
at the time of the crisis.
It might be said that the two
factions represented by the attor­neys
signify not only the in divid­uals
involved, but also the “ re­g
ular" navy men versus the "90-
day wonders, ” y o u n g officers
hurriedly trained for duty during
the war. -
Interesting also is the attitude
of the victorious attorney at the
end of the play. “ I won the case,
but I hate myself for d u ing it. ”
Tw>> psychiatrists witness at the
trial, adding to the psychoioR-ical
element.

56 Scheduling
Now Going On
For Juniors
W ith the newly inauguriated sy­stem
of student registration a
w^ek old, juniors of ASC began
their registration last Monday and
continuing through this Friday, for
next semester’s da ise s. The sen­iors
registered last week, from the
6th through the 10th.
Sophomores from the 4th to the
Tth of January, next year, reserv­ed
for them to iron out their class
schedules and the 9th to the 17th
is set aside for the registration of
the large freshman class.
The main reason behind the
scheduling changes is to help the
students fee] more secure du ring
registration.
By using the new method, stu­dent
conflicts may be solved be­fore
the begin nine of next semes­ter,
and activities can be started
on time without the usuaL hustle
and bustle of the past.
New tim e spreads for classes
wil run from 7: 40 a. m. until 4
p jn . C l a s s s c h e d u l e s for
the semester are available, along
with other information of times
and classes, a t the Registrar’s O f ­fice.
Here again are reminders con­cerning
the new registration pro­cedure:
1. Freshmen should see counsel­ors
assigned last fa ll. Any fresh­man
not having a counselor, or
who has forgotten the identity of
his counselor should contact the
office of the Dean of the College.
2. Students with interdepartmen­tal
conflict or transfer students
should also see Dean Walkup.
3. Students planning a profes­sional
semester this spring shduld
see D r. Virgil Gillenwater before
scheduling other courses.
Professors will wmrk with a stu­dent
only during the week assign­ed
for that student's class.
It seeros that students on this
campus ritill think first of the spir­itual
side of Christmas a rad the
joyful spirit that reigns during the
approaching holiday season. When
asked to elaborate on the very
pertinent phrase, “ What C hrist­mas
means to me, " these were
the replies received.
Dee Strickland The time of
friendship because people's minds
turn to their friends more than
at any other time. It ’s what they
said a t Christ’s birth—“ Peace on
earth, good will toward men. ”
T e r r e ll Cab rales—A time w'hen
you are supposed to get together
with your family.
Tottie Duzenberry I think you
appreciate home more at Christ­mas
time. Tt is a time to be
thankful. It has become commer­cialized,
but I think th a t when
you get right down to it most peo­ple
remember what the celebrat­ing
is for—Christ’s birthday.
Angel Martinez- The season of
the year that is t h e . *eason of
peace— and hope.
Thomas Goodman A time of re­membering
and commemorating
the birth erf the Lord Jesus Christ.
It is a time for recalling and the

Mary Alice Alenius —Means get­ting
together with your fam ily and
having Christian fellowship.
Charles McCoy -Its a time dur­ing
the year when the spreading
of good cheer and the relations
between friends and loved ones be­come
stronger. D uring this period
of strengthening of friendship you
alsft evaluate your relationship
with God.
Wanda Clements—A time when j
there is u feeling of goodwill which
we should have all year around.
Lars Garrison - A time of rebirth

A time of joy and thanksgiving.!
Rod Beardslee — T n i s year j
Christmas means being home for
the first time in five years.
Miss Virginia Alwin—This year!
I will mostly feel homesick. I t w ill;
be the first time Pve been away j
from home, or from Michigan for
Christmas.
Nancy Pangelinan--To me it J
means receiving Holy Communion i
celebrating the birth of Christ. I
Christmas is the world’s greatest
g ift; we should consider it to be j
significant the world over.
Bernie Truter When I think of
Christmas. 1 think of the birth |
| of Christ. Although commercializ- j Iation has seemed to take over, T *
think that most people still think j
j of the Nativity at Christmas-time.
I Denise G alla her—A time for fa- j
* m ily reunions and reconciliations.
Charlyn Laughead—Christmas is i
the tim e for commemorating the j
birthday of Jesus. It is the time [
of opening the door to the Christ
that dwells within us, thus receiv­ing
the lovp that came down Jo
us at Christmas. It is the season
for joyfulness in all we do, and
a time of giving of ourselves to
others.
Lonnelle Niles—Christmas to me
means the gathering of family and
friends to celebrate the birth of
our Saviour, Jesus Christ. ]t is a 1
time for giving more than receiv-ness.
and rejoicing more than sor­row.
.
Carole Homan— To me Christ­mas
is the time o»f year when the
members of a family get together
to exchange not only gifts, but
Wwe and friendship. The time of
year when you think more of thq
Father, the Son, and the Holy-
Ghost.
