TEAMS PARADE IN HALL

The 100000 mile post has been
passed in the campaign for S2s0Oo0
to rebuild Brownell Hall.
Yes, it was passed with $3.50 to
spare, for the total subscriptions to
date are $l02,59 1t was the team
captained by Joseph Barker WHICH
dragged the ball over the goal and
made the touchdown. Barker stood
up heroically and announced the re-
suit of the days work Of his team as
$4,000. This gave him the champion
ship for the day, an honor which he
ran away with Thursday. Nor was
he content with this, for he promised
to bring in another $1,000 Saturday.
John T. Yates and M. A. Hall were
appointed to carry the championship
banner to the Barker table. and as it
had already occupied that position,
there was nothing to do but to marsh
around the entire hall with the BAN
ner. In spirit of fun others joined
the procession, until half hundred
OF the team workers were parading
around the Fontenelle banquet room
behind the championship banner.
Bouquet to Mrs. Potter.
To Mrs. Phil Potter's team went
the bouquet, which is the symbol Of
the championship among the women's
teams for the day. Joe Barker car
ried the bouquet to her.
In these latter days OF the campaign
suggestions are being thrown out for
memorials in the new building. Any
one who wishes to give enough
money to fit out chapel, gym
nasium, library wing, school build
ing, music wing, dining room, resi-
dencc hall, inhrmary suite or swim
ming pool, will be welcome, and will
probably have chance to get his or
her name indelibly inscribed in bronze
on the walls OF such room.
Harry Turkey was asked to make
the "pep" talk of the day, but he
pleaded sore throat and hoarse
voice, and escaped.
