Grinnell. Feb. 13.-Herrick chapel
was crowded yesterday morning with
collegians, citizens and the members
of Gordon Granger post of the Grand
Army, as body of specially invited
guests, for the celebration of the Lin
coin centenary. The exercises began
with the rendering of the FESTIVAL
March," composed by Prof. E. b
Scheve, of the college. to celebrate the
completion Of the Iowa College endoW-
lnent campaign, but especially fitted
for this occasion, Lincoln, the Second
Founder of the Republic" was by
Frederick B. Sanborn, of Concord,
Mass. Mr. Sanborn was a contemporary
and personal acquaintance and friend
of Lincoln, and of the celebrated men
of the east who were most intimately
connected with the vital interests Of
the country at that time.
In the evening the women of the w.
r. c. with their husbands, were the
invited guests of the members of Cor
don Granger post at the post rooms,
where bountiful supper had been pre-
pared by the veterans. and this was
followed by an excellent program of a
literary character, the leading feature
of which was an admirable address by
Rev. j. W. Suckow, financial agent Of
Iowa College.
The state university basketball team
played the return game with Iowa COL
lege here last evening, and received a
setback to the tune of 20 to IA, the de-
feat being very much more decisive
than the one administered to them on
their own grounds week or more ago,
when the score was 10 to Is. The play
was rough, as it was in the previous
game, but there were no serious in
juries inflicted or received. Grinnell
and Iowa College friends are justly OK
ultant over this double victory over the
strongest opponents in the state, and
the excellent prospect of the state
championship.
Dean Edward l. Bosworth. of ODER
lin, will be in Grinnell tomorrow, and
will speak at the chapel at $3.50 in the
afternoon He will also have charge
of the vesper services at the chapel
in the evening.
