French Boy Adopted
By Beta Sigma Rho
The Penn State chapter of Beta Sigma Rho has adopted a nine
year-old French-Jewish child through the Foster Parents' Plan for
War 'Children, Inc.
Through the organization, the fraternity will contribute $l5
each month to, the care of ClaUde Fartich, the youngest child of
Mahlouf and Raymonde El Sair Faruch. The boy was born Dec. 2,
1942, near Marseille in the south
of France. Shortly after his birth,
the boy's father was seized by
the Gestapo and' was•dep - orted to
Germany, where he died March,
1943, in Autzwich.
Food and Mining
Claude now lives with
mother, brother, and sister• in a
small flat in a partially bomb
wrecked building where there is
little food and no conveniences.
Claude came into the Foster
Parents' plan in December and
food and clothing go to him regu
larly. He also has medical care
and attends school. A small cash
grant given -to his mother helps
with his home needs.
Correspondence Too
Martin Kahn, a member of Beta
Sigma Rho, says that the adop
tion arrangements were made
after he had heard about the Fos
ter Parents', plan on a radio sho'w.
"I thought that it would be a
good idea to adopt a war child,"
Kahn explained, "so I brought it
up at a house meeting, and it
was approved." The fraternity
then wrote to the New York head
quarters 6f the group, and the ar
rangements were completed.
Correspondence with the child
will:be translated and sent to him
through the organization's head
quarters, and letters from him
will be translated and forwarded
in the same manner.

Dancing was not permitted on campus until 1890.
Since there were few co-eds in Penn State, there were
only 3 dances a year to which girls were invited.
The • girls of 1890 'would have considered themselves •
-much more luckier if their date could have invited them,
to come • down to Vic's. Here is - an old-fashioned ; treat,
popular in 1890 and 1952: Vic's lemon blend, .only 10c. •
