drama is being produced and
sponsored by Delta Psi Omega

Geri Cobb and Mitzi Albertson
and they will lend color to the
production.

English Council Sets
Date for Clothing Drive
Fashionable clothing is not important to the German
refugees attending the Teacher’s Training School in Coburg,
Germany. They will be grateful for any clean used apparel
PCC students can donate during the English Council Clothing
Drive which begins Monday, Nov. -
26.
A letter written by a 14-year-
old girl expressed her gratitude
for the clothing sent her by PCC.
“Before we received your
gift,” she wrote, “my sister and
I had one set of clothes between
us and when I went to school
she had to stay in bed; when
she went to school, I had to stay
in bed.”
Members of the English Coun¬
cil are in charge of collecting,
packing and shipping the clothing.
The packages will be sent in time
to be given to the students as
Christmas presents.
In order to pay the postage
for these packages, lollipops
will be sold on campus Decem¬
ber 17 and 18 by English Coun¬
cil members.
Cartons will be available in the
various English classrooms for
the purpose of holding students’
donations.
