COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS TREE LIGHTING PLANNED FOR FRIDAY NIGHT

Christmas comes to Gitmo this Friday evening at 6:30 p.m. with the lighting of the community Christmas tree in the yard of the Naval Station library at the downtown stoplight intersection. Community singing of Christmas 1> carols, vocal duet of "Birthday of a King" by Patricia Allen and Barbara Magor, and selections by the Protestant Junior Choir direc- ted by Mrs. Ellie O'Neal will take place. Rear Admiral Ghormley will officially light the tree one-half hour sunset ceremonies. The 35-foot tall community trees at Windward and Leeward will be the only outdoor lighting authorized this year in Guantanamo due to the present Navy-wide energy restric- tions (see outdoor lighting story below). Immediately following the tree lighting ceremonies, the regularly scheduled movie at the Naval Sta- tion Lyceum will be pre-empted to provide special Christmas movies for the children: The Night before COMMUNITY CHRIS TMAS TREE - Workers prepare to erect the community Christmas (animated), The Cricket Christmas tree in downtown Gitmo.

During movie intermission, Santa 0 Claus will pay a brief visit to the NavSta Lyceum to talk to the children and hand out some Christ- mas candy. A tree lighting ceremony for Lee- ward Point NAS is being scheduled, but details were not yet available. Thursday's Gazette will have parti- culars on the NAS tree lighting.

BAN ON OUTSIDE LI HTIN IS NAVY-WIDE

When the community Christmas tree begins glowing Friday evening, it will represent an improvement over last year, when no outside lighting was permitted aboard the base. While the Department of Defense has again banned outside lighting for government quarters this year due to the continuing world-wide energy crisis, community trees will be allowed at DOD installations around the world.
