The annual bundle days re ceived more response than pre viously. Students all joined the tremendous worthwhile cause that will give many un der privileged boys and girls a merrier Christmas. Each year, the American students who work with the SCF provide clothing for many children who can't oth erwise be properly clothed The clothing which is collect ed is distributed free through the welfare or sold at a small cost to the families which are too proud to accept free cloth ing. Besides supplying the chil dren with clothing, the SCF gives thousands of pounds of clothing for free distribution to disaster victims at home and in 13 countries overseas, This was a tremendous year for Crater. Our quota of 500 pounds for SCF was reached We also were glad to be able to donate 588 pounds to our local Salvation Army. The competition between classes encouraged the stu dents and stimulated the spir it of giving. The sophomores flooded the dean's office with 670 pounds. The seniors were a step ahead of the juniors with 175 pounds. The juniors came through with 173 pounds. The freshmen class I collected 70 pounds for a to-j tal of 1,088 pounds.
