An active campaign along the lines
allotted to each committee is now
on and the officials are hopeful of
getting things in shape for house
warming around the first OF next
month. This will mean some ener-
getic hustlIng to secure rooms, but
the gentlemen appointed to look up
suitable location have already been
fortunate in finding rooms that will
be just the thing, provided the nego-
tiations now under way with owner
prove satisfactory and they have
every indication of doing so.
The intention is to have in au-
dition to reading and game rooms,
a gym" and baths. The develop
ment of the athletic department will
of course depend largely upon the
extent Of the financial support the
Association VIII receive from the
business men of the city, but in veiw
of it's Importance to the young men
of the town, it is believed the move
ment will meet with the hearty sup
port of the majority of Rapid Cityans
