-SANTA SAVER COUPON-
Continued from page 2.
Before they return home for the
semester break, however, the students will
be presented gifts from a Southeast
Sertoma Club Santa Claus.
The young men and women at Villa
Marie are all mentally retarded, some of
whom have secondary physical and
emotional handicaps, explained Sister
Patricia. She said they come from as far
away as Lexington, Edgar and Stanton, and
will return to their homes after Thursday's
Christmas luncheon and play.
Meanwhile, 27 children at the Cedars
Home for Children, 6601 Pioneer Blvd., are
busy decorating their dormitories in pre
paration for the holidays.
A toboggan will be awarded to the stu
dent with the most original decoration,
said Anna Kuklish, superintendent of
Cedars. Kuklish said Cedars' youth, whose
parents are either deceased or too ill or
feeble to care for them, will be well taken
care of this year.
"We receive many gifts from the
Lincoln community," said Kuklish. "The
nurses at Lincoln General Hospital send
mittens, scarves and hats.
"KFOR radio will be sending us a color
TV or a record player and La Sertoma,
which has sponsored Cedars for all of our
30 years, will also donate a TV for our bed
ridden children."
Additionally, said Kuklish, Don Ander
son Studios annually sends a personalized
gift-wrapped present for each of the child
ren. At the Nebraska Center for Children
and Youth, 2320 N. 58th St., the 66 resi
dents housed in the center's eight cottages
are preparing to host a series of mini
Christmases. The idea, said Doug Fleischer, cottage
life supervisor, is to try and keep the
Christmas spirit as intimate as possible.
"Not only at Christmas, but all year
round, we try and give the kids what they
don't have-a family. We want each of the
cottages to come up with their own decor
ations and have their own Christmas part
ies," Fleischer said.
The center's residents include boys and
girls, blacks and whites and are aged 10
through 19. They come from throughout
the state and are sent to the center by
courts who have ruled that their families
are unable to provide proper parental
supervision.
This year, Fleischer said KFOR's "Oper
ation Santa Claus" will donate between
$300 and $400 to the center.
Additionally, state funds allow the
center staff to spend $15 on each resident
for a gift of his or her choice.

Santa Claus hired to fit suit
By Barb Richardson
The man who sports a white beard, has
white hair to match, wears a red suit with
black boots and who is usually found
sitting in big chairs at department stores is
familiar to everyone. The man, who brings
Christmas joy into the hearts of both
young and old, is unmistakably Santa
Gaus.
Each year at this time department stores
across the nation hire men and women to
portray the role of the jolly old man.
While each department store has their
own method of selecting a Santa, a local
store personnel manager, Elda Reinhardt,
looked for three things in the applicants
she interviewed. "First, I looked for a man
who could fit the large suit we had from
pervious years. I also tried to determine if
the applicants really enjoyed children," she
said. Reinhardt added that the applicants
had to be healthy because they would
come in contact with so many children.
"Age makes no difference in selecting a
Santa," Reinhardt said. "It's all in the
make-up," she added. "We put rosey
cheeks on our Santa and color in his eye
brows with white shoe polish to mtoke him
look more realistic," she said. Reinhardt
added that their Santa does not have to be
stuffed and he adequately fills the large
suit from last year.
