PAGE TWO Fraternities, Kiwanis Combine In Sponsoring Christmas Parties Fraternities will join with the local group of Kiwanis Interna tional in sponsoring Christmas parties for children of the town— if a tentative plan proposed by 'the Kiwanis club is approved by In terfraternity Council. A committee from the local club headed by Dr. Charles A. Morgan, has proposed a plan whereby the Kiwanis club with the cooperation of the local Wel fare club will organize groups of children and take them to the various fraternity houses where they will be entertained by the members. As yet this proposition has not been proposed to IFC and so no definite plans have been made. However, both Thomas J. Henson ’42 and Robert F. Wilson ’42, president and vice-president re spectively of IFC stated that they were sure that the fraternities would be anxious to cooperate with the club’s plan. IFC already has contributed to various Christ mas basket funds, Henson stated. Usually six or eight children were invited to share in the holiday festivities of the house and in some cases the children were pre sented with gifts from their hosts. * • mM±2STX * *• %> .
