At Yale, UN Plans
Carolling Sunday
About 20 years ago, Phi Beta
Kappa at Yale took up the busi
ness of finding and comniline
Christmas carols. Since then, they
have formed a carol society which
has published literally hundreds of
carols and which sponsors its
chcrjT in ucral In nn annual
Christmas concert. To this etoud
is due the general interest all over
the country in carol programs.
or tne third year, the Univer
sity Singers, under the direction of
Dr. Arthur E. Westbrook. are
presenting a program of Christ
mas carols. It will be given in the
-Union on Sunday afternoon, Dec.
b, at two and again at four
o'clock.
KFOR Airs Uni
Book Nook Show
This Afternoon
KFOR's Book Nook program,
sponsored by the university li
brary, will have an airing today at
4:45.
The new staff, composed of Bet
ty Rhodes, commentator; Richard
Proud, announcer; and Bobbette
Burke, will be in charge.
They plan to give a series of il
lustrated talks this year, and are
carrying out that intention today
with a review of books suggested
for Christmas gifts. Included
among others will be "Balcony
Empire," by Reynolds and Elea
nor Parkard, and "We Took to the
Woods," by Louise Dickinson Rich.
Qualities of American gasoline
that are affected by adverse con

The navy display contains mate

drills was the formation of a
squad composed of one head war
den, two alternate wardens, and a
night warden. The house president
was recommended as head warden,
the house mother as one of the
assistant wardens, and the house
manager and committee to fill tha
other warden positions.
Force of Four.
A force of four wardens was
deemed advisable in order that at
least one warden should be in the
house at all times since the drills
after the initial Dec. 14 practice
will be unannounced.
Blanks were distributed to the
various house representatives at
the meeting to be filled out with
the names of the four wardens and
returned by tonight to Mr. W. C.
Harper, assistant dean of student
affairs and member of the uni
versity emergency defense com
mittee. Thruout the drill, radios are to
be left on as frequent announce
ments as to the . progress of the
drill are to be broadcast over every
station. The radios will also prob-
ame duplicate the siren and the
all-clear signals.
Telephones are not to be used
for personal calls during the en
tire time so that the lines may be
left free for official communica
tion. If, however, the telephone
rings during a blackout, it should
be answered since the call may be
from a senior warden in the dis
trict requesting a light out, or
special volunteers.
Flashlight Warning.
If flashlights are used during
a blackout, they must be used
with caution not to point the
beam of light directly out a win
dow or at a surface which would
reflect the light out into the
street. Shine the beam on the floor
or on walls with no windows.
The safest place to be during'
a raid is in a room with two walls
between you and the outside, and
not in a direct line with glass win
dows or doors. Most of the acci
dents in England are caused by
glass blowouts instead of direct
bomb hits. This principle holds
true not only at home, but wher
ever you are.
