S. homes this month have gone forth Christmas boxes and bundles to countless far-flung civilian Jacks. Toms, Ikes, Petes.

Thanks to the generous bequest of John W. Sterling Y'64 and the helpful co-operation of his trustees, we have been enabled to begin the first of the new buildings to supply dormitory needs for Freshmen.
