In the Church of the Holy Nativity in Bethle­ hem, a statue of the Christ Child is car­ ried in procession to the spot in the church which is supposed to be the ac­ tual place of Christ's birth. The Gospel of St. Luke is then sung; when the Deacon comes to the words "she laid Him in a manger," the statue is placed in a rock-hewn crib. Formerly in Paris and other French cities, families proceeded from the church to a huge family gathering where as generous a meal as fuhds would allow was served and family mat­ ters discussed.

The senators were reminded of the notoriety surrounding campus club ad­ ministrations and Vice President Bill Graham mentioned that there are a num­ ber of irregularities in the finances of several campus clubs.
