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.
