MH with Apologies To Schultz The Collegiate PUBLISHED WEEKLY ATLANTIC CHRISTIAN COLLEGE, DECEMBER 15, 1966 NUMBER TEN SANTA CLAUS! There is little that can be compared to the joy that children feel when they see the Jolly Ole Elf. The man underneath can be Bob Jones or Cecil Willis, but when he is dressed as Santa the spirit of Christmas he expresses it always the same. This spirit was never felt more than at the Christmas party for the Deaf School Children which was held in the classroom building on Saturday. (Photo by Dwight Wagner) Christmas Vespers To Be Held Sunday Good Try, But No Use Recess Remains Same Deaf School Given Party Dwight Wagner, SGA president, reported to the Executive Board on Monday night that he felt the Christmas party for the Deaf School children was very suc cessful. He quoted the director of the school as saying that this would probably be the best part of Christmas for many of these children. Mr. Willis was the star of the show in his red suit and white beard. It was also reported to the Board that the amendment to change the Executive Board meetings from every week to twice monthly had been passed by the student body. A motion by Steve Swinson, Junior class president, to have the Executive Board give $130 to buy gifts for the custodial help of the college did not pass. How ever, it was moved that the Board send suitable greetings to these personnel. Dwight Wagner presented the idea of having a high school “college-bowl.” The bowl would be sponsored by the Student Gov ernment Association and would be set up similar to the college bowl on T.V. He expressed the feeling that this would also be beneficial to the college in that it would bring large numbers of high school students to the cam pus, thus possibly stimulating in terest in these students towards applying at ACC. It would also make the college better known among the surrounding high schools. Barry Havens reported that he and Clay Brown, day student sen ator, will be meeting with the See DEAF Page 4 SGA Dance The Student Government Asso ciation will sponsor a Christmas Dance on Friday, December 16. The dance will be held in the Classroom BuildiBg lobby and will last from 8 p.m. to 12. T^e dress is semi-formal, admission is free, and refreshments will be served. “Guitar” Kimber and the Untouchables will provide the music. During the past few years a Christmas Vespers service has been held on campus on the Sun day preceding the Christmas re cess. Again this year this ser vice will be held in Howard Chapel at 4:00 p.m. A very in spiring and beautiful service has been planned. The service will be opened with an introit by the College Chorus. This will be followed by the singing of a carol by the congregation as the chorus pro cesses into the chapel. Following an invocation and prayer the Atlantic Christian College Vo cal Ensemble will sing “To Us Is Born Immanuel” by Michael Praetorius. The remainder of the first part of the service will consist of various pieces of Christmas music presented by the college chorus and the vocal ensemble. Among the pieces that the chorus will present will be “He Is Born,” a French carol arranged by Roger Wagner; “Mexican Christmas proces sion,” arranged by Paul Chris tiansen; and “Rejoice and be Merry,” arranged by Marlowe Johnson. The Vocal Ensemble will also add a few of the more familiar carols to the program. The final part of the service will be the singing of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Cantata of Christmas by the college chorus under the direction of James V. Cobb. Members from the Cham ber Orchestra from East Caro lina College and members of the Atlantic Christian College Brass Ensemble will provide the ac companiment for the Cantata. Mr. Charles Rakow wll play the organ accompaniment. Soloist will be Bill Griffin and Mrs. Jean Brown. The various groups participat ing in this service have been working for several weeks so that this service may be a meaningful experience for all who attend. And it is hoped that all students, faculty and admin istration will make every effort to be in attendance. S&S Production Deserves Merit By JEW BUSSELL Stage and Script’s production of T. S.

The purchase prize was award ed to Arnold for hLs acrylic pamting entitled, “X-cetra.” The painting is in the colorist and hard-edge style which is current ly in_ great favor among artists and is approximately 69” x 69” square.

In addition to this year’s prize, Arnold has won prizes in North See ARNOLD Page 4 tended by two days was pre sented to the council in the form of a petition signed by 622 individuals, most of whom are recognized as members of the student body. In making its decision, the council polled all available department chairmen and a large number of faculty members. Several factors haye come to light as a result of the investigation. Atlantic Christian College is a fully accredited institution. The rule of thumb with the accredit ing associations is that a bare minimum of 45 class sessions, exclusive of any examination pe riod, be maintained each se mester. It is generally accepted among most educators that a standard semester shall be com posed of 48 class sessions, ex clusive of the examination pe riod. Atlantic Christian College is operating its fall semester on the bare minimum. Should two additional days be granted for the Christmas ecess, it would then become necessary to make up the time following the holiday period. This would make it nec essary to hold classes on the Reading Day requested by the Student Government Association and also to hold classes for the entire day and evening on one Saturday. It appears that too many faculty members and student organizations have pre vious commitments to make it feasible to hold classes on Sat urday.
