University Groups Play Host At Easter Egg Hunts
Easter came early Sunday. Thirty dozen eggs were hidden in conspicuous places on the side of Campanile Hill for small fingers to find and place in large brown sacks for safe keeping.
Fifty children from the Kansas Children's Receiving Home in Atchison shyly started down the hill, but soon became engrossed in the important business of finding eggs.
Earlier, the children were entertained at the Alpha Delta Pi house by the sercurity and the University Veterans Organization. Each child received several gifts of clothing and toys donated by Lawrence merchants.
Several members of the sorority were kept busy putting eggs where some of the smaller children would be sure to find them. Before the afternoon was over, each child found enough eggs to argue with his buddy about who had the most.
After the hunt the children were taken to the Military Science building for a picnic. Gifts for children who could not attend and 65 pounds of chocolates were sent back with the children.
Egg hunts were not confined to Campanile Hill. Twenty-five children hunted for dyed eggs at the park at Maine and Sixth Streets. Members of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity made certain that no hands were empty there. Ice cream and candied eggs were given out in enough quantities to make happy smiles—and tummy aches, probably.
The Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity held a hunt at the house where thirty-five dozen boiled eggs, candy eggs, chocolate, cokes, and cookies kept 40 youngsters happy between games in the vard.
In all, about 80 dozen eggs gave 155 youngsters a happy afternoon. Egg hunters didn't monopolize the fun, however. It was sometimes rather difficult to distinguish between guests and hosts.
