Annex Halls Hold Xmas Parties for Settlement Kids

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Annex dormitories will follow Phillips Brooks House in holding Christmas parties for settlement house children, Betty Heaton '51, Community Service head, announced yesterday.

Fifty children from the Cambridge Welfare Agency will be invited to the affairs which are scheduled for the week of Decefber 12. House committees and Community Service representatives will handle arrangements for the parties under Miss Heaton's supervision.

The Board of Hall presidents adopted the plan following a suggestion by the Community Service Council that parties for children should replace the traditional dormitory get-togethers, with girls giving presents to children instead of to each other.

Barnard Hall has already put in a bid for 15 children in the five and six-year-old group. One dorm even wants the affair co-educational, with little girls--and little boys.
