Christmas and Carols

Community Christmas Cele-
bration for Newark is the happy
announcement of the week.
Good ladies of the town, deter
mined to renew the spirit of
those older days, have set their
minds on a Community Christ
mas Tree. Council at it's meet
ing Monday evening heard their
request and voted generously
for the wiring and lighting of
the Magic Tree. The Knoll, resi-
dence of President Hullihen, is
the happy selection for the dis
play.
The word that should inspire
us all is Community" 1t will
be in true keeping with the
spirit and heart of the season.
and be a Community Tree. Not
a celebration of a denomination,
of a club, of a party, set or sec
ton, but something which each
and every man, woman and
child may enjoy to the full.
And with this announcement
came, too, the news of Choral
Society for Newark. A happy
coincidence and full of possibili-
ties. "a singing army WINS is
more than a passing remark: 1t
is recognized psychological
fact. Tipperary, Marsellaise,
Keep the Home Fires Burning,
had much more to do with the
morale than practical peace
days are wont to admit. The
same effect has been noted in
Community Singing organiza-
tions. One of the country's great
Americanization teachers says,
"a singing community is happy
and contented, without greed or
Crouch
So it is of happy omen that
these announcements come at
the approaching Xmas season
May the efforts of those direct,
ing be crowned with results, de-
served. And that they may sc
be, we bespeak the thought ano
energies of all.

CRIDIRON TIE
Faculty and Seniors Battle to
IT Draw

Last Saturdays football game be-
tween the Faculty team of the Uni
versity of Delaware and the Seniors
was brilliant event and proved one
of the most interesting games that
was played on Frazer Field this sea-
son. The "Profs" had it all planned
out how they would wallop the stu
dents but the Seniors sprung the un-
expected and played just as good as
their older and more experienced op-
ponents.
The Faculty kicked off and after
getting possession of the ball threat
ened the goal line of the Upperclass-
men when dutch" CARL intercepted
forward pass and dashed s5 yards
for touchdown. Foulk kicked the
goal and brought the total up to 7.
From then until the last period the
ball see-sawed from one end of the
field to the other, but in the final
minutes of play the Faculty started
drive up the field and through
straight football drove "Tex" Davis
over for a touchdown and Coach
Derby knotted the score by kicking
the goal.
The game was fast throughout and
the crowd was we'll pleased The work
of CARL, Shipley and DAILY stood out.
