ONE HOUSE SANTA DIDN'T MISS: Gordon Henry, 1507 Ottawa Dr., took no chances that the genial gentleman with the bushy white whiskers might miss his house. Flood lamps picked Santa out as he rode up in his sleigh, apparently already about empty, pulled by two reindeer, presumably Vixen and Dixon. The unusual exhibit can be seen by passersby from Pontiac Rd.

Santa In The Rain: Mr. Claus was unable to get his reindeer and sleigh into the yard of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene H. Hannah of 2110 Shadford Rd., so he came on foot and protected himself from the unseasonable rain with an umbrella. At night he turns jitterbug and dances to popular tunes.

Each afternoon at 4:30 Tucky, a semi-cocker spaniel, awaits the arrival of The Ann Arbor News carrier, Peter Staelens, 13, at the home of her mistress, Mrs. D. G. Quirk of 1370 Lathers Rd., on the western outskirts of Ypsilanti so that she herself, Tucky, can deliver The News to the front door. Peter, a student in the eighth grade at the Central school, has many papers to deliver so the daily assist from Tucky is highly appreciated. Peter lives near the Quirk home at 15 Warner Rd.
