Mr.. Hamilton a salary and at the lat
ter's request consented to use his name
and picture as vice president on the
school literature.

vote his whole time to the business
as he was also engaged as renta
agent for Mr.. Sefgmuller of another

INAUGURAL STANDS
Committee Expects to Make
Awards for Concessions
by This Evening.
$4,000 TO KEEP ORDER

Congress having adopted the joint
resolution permitting the use of public
| spaces for the erection of stands during
the inaugural period. officials of the
inaugural committee today began con-
sideration of bids for the concessions
along Pennsylvania avenue. Chairman
Robert n. Harper said the award of the
concessions probably would be made
late this afternoon. Mr.. Harper and
John B. Colpoys. chairman of the COM
mittee on reviewing stands and prfvi-
leges, spent about two hours this
morning going over the bids
The award of these concessions could
not be made until Congress granted the
right to build the stands public
spaces. Although officials of the in
augural committee were confident that
this permission would be granted, they
did not feel justified in entering into
any contracts until the joint resolution
was adopted.
Chairman Harper said he would make
a determined effort to make the awards
this afternoon, for he realizes that little
time remains to build the stands and
that the purchasers of the concessions
will need every minute between now
and March to get their work done on
time
