That seems to be the main trend of thought in the modern day. Every stress is put on the "get your presents now", and the "bright lights and bells" idea. Of course, that's what makes Christmas fun and we shouldn't be denied that privilege. But try reading the story of Christ's birth just once during the holidays and you'll get the true spirit and meaning of Christmas. Let's make the joy of the holiday come to us by giving in good spirit and receiving with gratefulness. Merry Christinas, everyone, from the staff of Signpost, and may the New Year he a very happy and prosperous one! congratulations, cellar theatre Theater Workshop, in an outstanding display of talent in both acting and directing, presented its first play of the season the first week in December. The play, "The Velvet Glove." directed by John Kelly, was the story of freedom done in a little bit of different light. Done in a hilarious comedy style, it involved the attempts of Mother Hil-debrand (Colleen Miller and Sandra Islaub) with inspiration from Go:l or vice -versa to counteract 1he injustice of a tyrannical bishop in a convent school. Mother was helped in her efforts by a kindly old Monsignor (Allen Cook and Mark Wood) and the school's faculty head, Sister Monica (Venice Maxwell and Janet Wa'dron). The Bishop was played by Ron Ingalls. The act of injustice was perpetrated on a lay professor in the college (Therald Todd) as he was accused of being a communist. Adding romance to the production was Mother's secretary, who, on the side, was the young professor's fiance (Marilyn Brown and Ruth Roelink). Adding to the story were a local newspaper editor (Max Montgomery), a timid and giggly younger nun (LaRita Ho.Hey and Marilyn Johns), and another nun (RaNae Morby). j The play was done in the basement of the Bertha Eccles Hall. It was another triumph in Cellar Theater productions. Thatcher Allred, director of the play, for a tryout appointment. Tryouts will be conducted entirely on an individual basis for this play, states Mr. Allred, rather than by general tryouts. because of shortage of time prior to the Christmas season.

Under the direction of advisor, Harold Bateman, the group sounded of its plans for the remainder ofthe school year. Included in these plans are assemblies to be presented for the student-body. Famous and supposedly informed speakers will be secured for club meetings. The McCarthy clash came two weeks ago as two groups volunteered to head a panel discussion on both sides of the controversy. Heading the Con side was Howard Larsen and the Pro side Allen Cook, who was quick to mention that he didn't necessarily agree with his own views. In an early November meeting, the club elected officers for this year. Elected president was Howard Larsen, Vice-president Jack Faulkner, and Secretary Carol Jean Shaum.
