Description: PROTEST WITH HOLIDAY FLAVOR--John Martin, a non-student, wears Santa Claus outfit as he hands out balloons to pickets and others outside UCLA Job Placement Center. Fewer than 30 students showed up to protest as the Dow Chemical Co. resumed interviewing prospective employes[sic]. Monday's small turnout was in contrast to Nov. 7 when a group took over a wing of the center for three hours.
