SOCIALLY SPEAKING
Bocky Vallette, Kansan Society Editor
Last minute Christmas shopping, wrapping gifts, and addressing cards will constitute the hard work of this weekend. And, if you're living in an organized house, there will be the Christmas tree to decorate, unless it's already up. When 50 persons try to decide whether to put an angel, a star, or a bell on the top branch of the tree, it presents a real problem. The Kappa's solved their dilemma by having a Christmas tree trimming party Wednesday, and making their guests do the work!
Bishop to Speak Sunday
The Rev, Paul Schulte, bishop of the Leavenworth diocese, will speak at a breakfast meeting of the University Catholic club, following 10 am. mass, Sunday.

French Students to Lunch For Conversational Practice

Charlie McCarthy is an honorary member of the Kansas chapter of Delta Upsilon. He was initiated during a mock ceremony held in Kansas City in 1938 when he and Edgar Bergen were there for a show.
When things are not so "snafu" for Mortimer Snerd, he hopes to become a fraternity brother of Charlie and Edgar Bergen, who is also a member of Delta Upsilon.
The fraternity was founded in 1834 at Williams college to combat the secret societies that were flourishing at that time. Since then 69 active chapters have been founded in the United States and Canada.
The Kansas chapter was organized in 1920 from the Kansa club, a local social organization. A few years later the Pi Upsilon fraternity was absorbed into the new D.U. chapter. The present chapter house, 1025 West Hills street, was built in 1933.
With guests, arriving in carriages, knights in shining armors, candle light, and a wine cellar, the fraternity carries out the Old English theme in its annual Manor party
Mrs. C. R. Warden is the housemother.
Chapter officers include Keith Bunnel,* president; Willard Reeder, vice-president; Donald Cochran, secretary; and Keeneth Higdon, treasurer.
Other actives are Jack Hines, Lloyd Houston, Bentley Nelson, Robert Buechel, Robert Unger, Lawrence Guy, Alvin Steinhauer, and Rex Paulson.

Overland Greyhound service, without the wartime taboos, is back. Now, more seats, more schedules, faster speeds to all America are yours again. Watch for further great bus improvements. They're coming fast—and Greyhound will lead—as always.
After years of asking you not to travel, it is heartwarming for Overland Greyhound to speed the reunions of fighting men—to freely carry all Americans to all places in America for the first peacetime holidays. There will be crowds of course—there always have been at Christmas time—so go early and come back late if you can. But go anyway!
Crowd in closer little fellow-your daddy's home!
