There wii ! be grmes and refreshments at : both establishments, so there ;s no excuse for "all dressed up and no place to go"!! Both places of business are going all out to assure you of a good time. Weather need not i be a factor to consider, because your destination is within walking distance! Dress warmly-- and then have a fine time! Fraternity Son Plays Host It was a proud mom and dad that journeyed to Champaign, recently to visit with their freshman son at the University. Mary and Louis Tomasello drove down for Dad's day and were thrilled with Jim As yor may recall, Jim elected to work for a year, because he was tired of being a school boy. As so many of the youngsters are learning in time--nothing wii take the place of a good education! First b:t of entertainment was the football game which ended in defeat for Illinois to Michigan. A ham dinner for the visitors was served at the fraternity house--in this case. Jim is pledged to Pi Kappa Phi. Later in the evening, the Tomasellos enjoyed the movie, "Love for Love" in the auditorium. The couple remained over night at a local hotel. Sunday noon, a banquet dinner was served to all with association meetings for each following. Then came a special program given by the pledge class. Mary and Louis were introduced to Jim's "special date", Kathleen. Jim is studying mechanical engineering and is a "most happv fella" to be pouring over books and studies once more!. Speaking of the Tomasellos, let us extend belated birthday greetings to Miss Louellen who was 17 on Monday. Nov. 9. Incidentally, after a long siege of illness. Mary is beginning to gain weight and is starting to look more like her old self. Let's hope there will be nothing but good health foi her in the future!

READ THE WANT ADS D.D.A. Little did we think the regular activities of the D.D.A. would get under way so early in the season. John Fiedler started it a coup'e of week"* ngo bv be;r»g the first one of the year. In case you are not familiar with the D.D.A., it is an unofficial organization we have here in Sunnvside Estates.
