Christmas Parties Give Students Merry Send-off for Vacation
Taking top honors for being the most "packed full" two days of the school year, this last weekend before Christmas vacation offers a variety of entertainment for University students. Buffet suppers and formal dances take the social spotlight this week to give students a merry sendoff for the short but much-welcomed Christmas vacation.

Fergus and Brown Are Bridge Winners After Second Round
Winners of the first and second rounds of the annual bridge tournament, sponsored by Student Union Activities, were announced last night by Barbara Prier, chairman of the tournament. Jean Fergus and Nancy Brown were high score winners after the second round which was played Tuesday night in the lounge of the Memorial Union building.
A duplicate bridge plan is being used in the tournament this year. Each player's hand is working out in advance, according to the plan, and each couple plays at every board.
Other high score winners in the tournament so far are Nancy McCleary and Armilda Lincoln, second; Ann Starr and Jeanne Harris, third; Virginia Rader and Keith Bunnel, fourth; and Leta Mae and Sarah Marks, fifth.
An average of scores obtained in the second round and in the first round, which was played two weeks ago determined the winners. Nine tables will participate in the playoff round, Miss Prier said. Tentative date for the finals has been set for Jan. 9.
Those who will make up the tables in the play-off round, besides the 10 high winners are Jane Eby and Ann Cowan, Margaret Fessler and Barbara Barnium, Eileen Frieson and Barbara Sherrard, and Lila Jean Doughman and Patricia Arnuel. The official scoreboard for both of the preliminary rounds of play will be posted on the bulletin board outside the Union Activities office in the sub-basement of the Memorial building, Miss Priar said.
