in the programs the Student Union has offered the past two DIZQCl fraternity
uays.

Union officials goes great credit for seeking such a program.
To school of music directors and those who partook in the

the wants of those who attended the creation of something
a bit mystic in the beautiful settings of the Christmas spirit.

side" during the Revolutionary
war but who later remained in
America, while his mother was a

school board saw him, very young

they held a hasty meeting to vote
on whether they should send him
home.
"They finally decided to let the
big huskies in the school scare me
out," he laughed, "but I nly had
one serious discipline problem.
That time I shook a big muscular

if he got up he could throw me!"
His career moved rapidly ahead.
