!. N. {, A, PLAN
FOR LE.W|ST0WN
STATE SECRETARY PUEHLER OF
BILLINGS coNFERS WITH
THE COMMITTEE.
UNDERTAKING IS A PRETTY BIG ONE

Plans are we'll under way for a
Y. M. {. 4. i'll Lewistown, and after
several preliminary meetings in the
interest OF such plans, it is safe to
state that organization is confidently
expected within the next few months
1t will be- remembered that at re-
cent luncheon of the Chamber OF Com
merce the proposal OF a civic club was
discussed, conceived along Y. M. c. A.
lines At that time a committee Of
IL was appointed to make thorough
investigation Of the feasibility of such
plan. as well as to ascertain com
munity sentiment regarding it. It was
at lengthe decided that Y. NJ. G. A.
and not a civic club would be the
more practical organization for Lew
istOwn and plans were formed. The
committee chose from its number two
subcommittee for finance and build
ing site, and meetings were called
from time to time to report progress.
At an invitation from the committee,
Charles Puehler of Billings. state sec
retary of the Y. nj. G. A. came to Lew
istown to give advice as how to pro-
ceed, and met with the committee
members yesterday afternoon. Re
ports from the finance and building
site committees were heard, and Sec
retary Puehler gave a detailed outline
as to the mode of procedure neces-
sary to secure Y NJ. c. A. for this
city.
committee of five will be appoint
ed to take the matter up at the pres
ent point and carry it through to com
pletion. That the plan will be sue
cessfully carried through there can be
very little doubt. The right men are
back of the movement and the need
for Y. NJ. G. A. here is so obvious
that support will probably come un-
solicited. Secretary Puehler expects
to leave for Billings this morning, but
will personally aid the local move
ment as it progresses.
