7elfare Groups Initiate Drive
To Collect Clothing For Winter
4>

I

With the belief that students can
"do something more constructive
than wave flags" during our coun-
try's hour of need, a group of stu-
.dents on campus has already organ-
ized to aid the local Salvation Army,
Red Cross and Friends Service Com-
mittee in their winter civilian cloth-
ing drive.
At a time when the government
must devote all its energies to the
armed forces, and with Christmas
rapidly approaching, this group is
playing its part in national defense,
by distributing all available warm
clothing to needy civilians.
Warm Clothes Needed
Yestrday, in an intrview With
The Daily, Brigadier Ellis, local di-
rector of the Salvation Army, ek-
plained the large demand for warm
overcoats and underclothing right
now.
"In the past two months over 220
people have "applied and received
overcoats from us," he disclosed.
"However, in the past week or so
requests have. been coming in so
heavily that we have been forced to
turn down many because of lack of
supply. We shall certainly need an-
other 250 to see us through the win-
ter." Brigadier Ellis pointed out as
many as four and five people come
in every day asking for clothing.

Collectors of Hopwoodia should be
happy this month, for literary speci-
mens are indeed abundant.
John Ciardi, whose meritous work
has already placed him twice in the
Hopwood column this year, scores
again..
The spring issueofLouis Adam-
ic's "Common Ground" carried
"Booston: North End." Massachu-
setts furnished material for another
poem, "Long Wharf: Boston," print-
ed in the winter number of the same
publication.
In "New Republic's" special De-
cember literary supplement for writ-
ers under 30, appears Ciardi's "Ode
for School Convocation."
But that's not all: "Tom Boggs
has just brought out an anthology
called 'New Poets,' in which I have
about 300 lines of poetry," Ciardi
writes.
Chad Walsh, also a frequenter of
this column, has written a poem,
"Death in the Country," for the com-
ing issue of "The Lyric."
Mary E. Cooley, hostess of The
Hopwood Room, predicts that today's
Christmas tea attendance will be the
largest of the year.

WHAT A DIFFERENCE
the right lamps make
It's so easy to make your
home brighter, pleasanter, i
more inviting. A 150-wata
bulb in the kitchen ceiling
fixture, a 3-Lite floor lamp in
the living room, five 40-wvatt
bulbs in the dining room
candelabra fixture (shaded),
two shaded 60-watt bulbs in
the bedroom ceiling fixture.

It's really not much of a problem -
deciding how to go home for the
Holidays. Just follow the crowd-
your crowd - and you're sure to find
yourself aboard a Greyhound Super-
Coach. Or if you'd rather sit down
and figure the matter out carefully,
logically, practically, you'll end up
the same place - for the big saving
on Greyhound's low round-trip fares
is a pretty effective mind-maker-
,iner! Merrv, Christmas ~- - Hnn'u'
