the Santa Claus suit home to its owner in Oklahoma City, but it didn't get there. Someone stole the suit! However, a small boy found it discarded in a near-by alley, and his mother, having read of the incident in the newspaper, notified Don in time for him to enjoy the New Year. During the early spring months several Lyceum numbers were given. On February 22 Rev. Claude A. Beesley gave an interesting "travelogue through New Mexico." His subject was "The American Nile." Rev. Beesley is Rector of the Church of the Good Shepherd at Wichita Falls, Texas. In March the Little Symphony of Oklahoma City gave a very profitable concert. One of the most captivating, although new, features of the year was the World Student Service Fund Drive. This project is for the purpose of contributing to the receducation of the youth of the war-torn countries. Elton Wood was selected to direct the Drive and was assisted by Jim Hamilton from the Student Council. A well-planned program was arranged and amid much enthusiasm the project went over with a great success. With the coming of peace to the world, the Council sought in choosing a gift for the College to pay tribute to the war heroes and at the same time to point to greater days ahead. Therefore, two gifts have been selected-a memorial plaque honoring the five B.P.C. men who paid the supreme price, and a sound-silent movie projector and screen which will be used exclusively for visual education purposes. The bronze plaque is 18"x24" and will bear the names and pictures . of: Reginald Carter, Robert Hicks, Marvin Stockett, Robert Corley, and Carl Newsome. The work of the Student Council has been very successful, and its high type of leadership is appreciated by everyone.
