George Phillips, Of State College Y.
M. C. A., has recently received a num-
Der of requests from families in var
ious parts of the state for houses in
Brookings in order hat they can move
here to take advantage of Brook
excellent school and college
facilities. Mr.. Phillips is an untiring
worker for not only the college and the
Y. M. C. A. but for ~Brookings, too. His
office has become a clearing house for
information and he has been of no
little help to new people coming to
Brookings, as well as local people. 1t
is a covetous thought but his services
coupled with a city Y. NJ. c. A. would
be of great service to Brookings.
