"Many students are shocked to hear Jesse Stuart, one of the
nation's leading poets and a native of Tennessee, tell of children in
the American Southern Mountains who walk to school, barefoot in
the snow," said Dave Manning, Circle K president.
The Behrend Campus Circle K, to aid children through Save the
Children Federation's Donated Clothing Program in just such areas
as Jesse Stuart described, is readying headquarters for its local Do
nated Clothing Collection Project. Collections will be made on Feb
ruary 1, 1964, from 9 a.m. through 5 p.m.
On behalf of the Circle K, and their participation in this human
itarian project. Manning urged residents to bundle up all good. wear
able clothing no longer needed, such as sweaters, low-heeled shoes,
pants, dungarees, mittens, blankets, coats, dresses, skirts, and under
wear. Nnot only children's clothing, but adult and infant apparel for
winter and summer is badly needed. It costs nothing . . . it does so
much.
Clothing should be brought to Erie Hall at the Behrend Campus
or, to arrange having donations picked up by Circle K members, call
TW 9-7472.

Carnival
Or Forgotten?
Because of the unseasonable
persistance of the "January
Thaw." or whatever it is that
is causing the snow to melt, the
SGA found it difficult to schedule
any Winter Carnival events. There
was no ice to skate on, and no
snow to ski on, Saturday, Jan-
uary 25, the proposed day of the
Carnival.
However. the 1964 Winter
Carnival dance, Snowbound, was
held Saturday, the 25th, even
with the obvious absence of any
snow. The highlight of the night
