Christmas Caroling Prevented This Year By Cold Weather
Although the Christmas season is here, below zero weather stepped in and has prevented many organized houses from doing their annual Christmas caroling.
Miss Maude Elliott's University High School Spanish classes went caroling last night. They sang carols in Spanish to some of the Oread teachers and to several Mexican families in Lawrence.
Sunday night, the cooperative houses, Harmon, Jay Coed, Kaw Koette, and John Moore, went caroling. Tuesday night, the Delta Gamma's serenaded some of the organized houses. Of those houses that usually go, the Gamma Phi's, the Kappa's, Watkins hall, and the Alpha Chi Omega's did not go this year because of the cold weather. Some may go tonight.
