December 31 Rates Later Closing Hour
One thirty closing hours News Year's Eve! Many students are partially, at least, consoled regarding the shortened Christmas vacation after hearing that announcement.
To justify the later closing WSGA and MSC in particular criterion of all parties. With its reputation of being a "country club," anyway, the Hill will cause no little comment with its elaborate plans.
In the atmosphere of a night club, with balloons, confetti, horns, dancing on Hoch's waxed floor, and entertainment by professional performers, students will welcome in the new year. For four hours, 9 p.m., Dec. 31, to 1 a.m., Jan. 1, the mythical "country club" will be a reality.
All this comes off just three weeks from tonight. Just three more weeks of '42! Time to be making resolutions.

Sailors March, Sing Though Away From Home and Friends
Singing in the rain-or snow-the sailors here vocalize in all kinds of weather. They sound happy as they march along rhythmically to the song.
The sailors are happy even though they are miles, maybe hundreds of miles away from home and friends. They are under strict discipline, apart from family and friends, in a new geographical location, and with the reputation of a uniform. Yet they are singing.
The first day of the snow, a group of three sailors met. One said, "How do you like this Michigan weather?" The second inquired, "Does the Minnesota snow suit you?" and the third replied, "Why, this a good old Indiana snow."
Men from every part of the country are here in the machinists mates school. Nearly everything in Lawrence is new to them. They have to adjust themselves even more than freshmen do. Yet they can sing.

PLAYING GRANADA — FRIDAY-SATURDAY
MOVIETONE NEWS VOLUME 25, NO 27, IS EXCLUSIVELY DEVOTED TO TRAGIC EVENTS AT PEARL HARBOR ON DECEMBER 7TH, 1941. THESE SCENES ARE PROBABLY THE GREATEST ACTUALITY EVER PHOTOGRAPHED AND REPRESENT ONE OF THE MOST DRAMATIC MOMENTS IN OUR COUNTRY'S HISTORY. WE ARE ABLE TO PRESENT THIS PICTORIC FILM IN ITS STARTLING ENTIRETY BECAUSE OF THE FORESIGHT OF OUR GREAT MOVIETONE NEWS ORGANIZATION. REALIZING THAT OUR HAWAIIAN POSSESSIONS WOULD BE OF EXTREME IMPORTANCE IN THE THEN THREATENING GLOBAL WAR. OUR NEWSREEL STAFFED HAWAII WITH ITS MOST COMPETENT CAMERAMEN AND OUR REPRESENTATIVE WAS THE ONLY OPERATIVE IN THAT AREA ON THE FATEFUL DAY OF THE JAP SNEAK PUNCH. SO AGAIN MOVIETONE IS ABLE TO BRING EXCLUSIVELY TO ALL ACCOUNTS ANOTHER WORLD IMPORTANT NEWSREEL SCOOP. THIS IN ALL PROBABILITY IS THE GREATEST IN THE HISTORY OF SCREEN JOURNALISM.

Let Us Make This a GOOD Christmas
We must preserve our Christmas spirit, so it may shine out for all the world to see. So let us make this, of all Christmoses, a GOOD Christmas.
Our chain of joyous, untroubled Christmoses is broken. All that Christmas means to us is in peril . . . and we must dedicate ourselves wholly to the task of saving it.
