CHALLENGE TO SANTA HELPERS (Continued From Page 1) the Times and the Christmas I Clearing House, and this year they r will repeat their generosity and make ten more families happy and grateful. The thirty or more young men of the fraternity expect to divide up three to a family and see that each family on their list is properly visited by Santa Claus. Perhaps you’re looking for someone who won’t have a Santa Claus without you? Every day the Times publishes anew list of needy families for you to choose from. When you have selected the family you’d like to make happy with a basket and , your personal cheer, call the Times Santa Claus, Main 3500, and ask for the family you’ve chosen by number. The name and address of your choice will be given you, and then you can play Santa Claus to somebody who can’t afford to think about Christmas as anything but another day of a weary month. Perhaps you’ll make one of these families yours this Christmas? 68.
