GREEK RELIEF COMMITTEE Last October ninth Mr. Williani Pappas was invited to speak to the student body about the trip he had just made to his native village of Levidion in northern Greece. What he said about the hardships and suffering there gave Mr. joseph Pivernetz the idea of having the Lick students adopt Levidion and send food, clothing, soap, and other necessities to the people of the town. The students went right to work on the project, led by the Economics class, which was organized to lead the drive. Lee Bell was appointed as head of the main committee, to work directly under Mr. Pivernetz, The hrst drive netted Levidion four hundred sixty-five pounds of clothing. The next drive, for soap, brought in a total of fifty-eight pounds. The drive for macaroni was the most successful because of the prize offered. Money to pay for the heavy postage to Greece was a serious problem. Mr. Pivernetz saved the day by inaugurating a system of fines to be paid in his classes by those unfortunates who were caught violating the rules. These hnes and voluntary contributions by the students netted one hundred and fifty-eight dollars. Nearly all of the money taken in has had to be spent on the postage, so that there is now approximately twenty dollars left. The Tiger staff would like to commend Mr. Pivernetz, Lee Bell, johnny Andronico, Gene Meyer, Clara Morando, Bob Max, Emil Lassus, Claudine Pope, Don Frediani, Ted Wedel, and Jeanne Zumwalt, who all worked so hard to make the drives successful.
