FOR NEW GYMNASIUM

lcge Students to Raise Money for
New Structure

Lyman Waters, a student of the
State College, appeared before the
chamber of commerce Tuesday to
present the plans of the student body
for raising funds for the construction
of the much needed gymnasium. 1t

this would raise $4,000 per year to-
ward the building fund Anticipat,
ing that the state legislature would
be willing to appropriate like
amount annually toward the building
fund, 100000, or enough to build
the gymnasium, would be realized in
two years, when attention could be
turned to other needed buildings.
1t is proposed to inaugurate the
plan next fall, il it meets with APP
proval, and in order to make posi-
bic the construction of the gymnasi.-
UNI as early as possible the sale of

GO OVER PROPOSED ROAD

A party of interested citizens this
week made an inspection trip over
the proposed new road to Moscow
Idaho, leading through the college
farm on Maple drive due east to the
Idaho line. The party reports that
the road is even now in good condi-
ton for travel and could be improved
easily, there being no rock work at
any point on the proposed highway
A five per cent grade could be easily
established and the route would be
less than mile longer than the pres
ent short road following the DIV.
tracks. A preliminary survey IS
promised by the county engineer

NEW Low LEVEL
IN WHEAT MARKET
Red Wheat Quoted at $1.15 in Local
Market Monday, Lowest Price in
Three Years

A new low level for wheat was es-
tablished in the local markets Mon
day of this week, when Red Russian
wheat dropped to $1.15 per bushel,
with club and fortyfold two or three
cents higher. Tuesday showed an
e'ght-cent advance, most of which
was lost in the slump of Wednesday,
however. The quotations are purely
nominal, none of the dealers being
anxious to buy and the farmers sit
ting tight, with no desire to sell.
1t is estimated that As per cent
OF the Pullman crop is sold, 40 per
cent at prices over 50, averaging
$2.15, and five per cent at prices
ranging from $1.25 to $190. The
situation, according to persons who
are in direct touch with the condi-
tions, is a critical one, and it is be-
lieyed that the crest of the wave of
depression has not yet been reached
The fluctuation in the price of
wheat on the local market is indicat-
ed by the following figures on Red
Russian wheat, club and fortyfold
being quoted at from two to five
cents above the basic price for red
wheat.

BOOST FOR COMPLETION
OF EASTERN HIGHWAY
Palouse Chamber of Commerce Takes
Initiative in Campaign--Asks
Pullman Chamber to Help

The Palouse chamber of COM
merce has taken the initiative in
the campaign designed to insure the
early completion of the Eastern di-
vision of the Inland Empire high
way, from Rosalia to Pullman,
through Garfield and Palouse. and
has asked the Pullman chamber of
commerce to cooperate with the Pa
louise organization in the matter. A
letter was this week received by the
Pullman chamber from J. p. Duke.
| of Palouse, who stated that he has
already been before the commission
ers of Whitman county and has re-
ceived from them promise of active
aid to the end that the road be COM
pleted at the earliest possible date.
Approximately 2 miles of the high
way has been neither graded nor sur
faced.
Mr.. Duke submitted a letter re-
ceived by him from Frank w. Gull
bert of Spokane, president of the
Eastern Washington Highway asso-
citation, extracts from which are
given below:
In reply to your letter of the 18th
instant, | beg to say that | have al
ready done some work for an appro-
priation on the eastern division of
the Inland Empire highway and feel
that you should have reasonable
amount of money appropriated there
on. If the federal funds are in the
same proportion as heretofore,
would like to see the road handled
in just the manner you speak Of, the
state doing the grading and the coun-
ty following up with the surfacing.
"My suggestion would be for you
to go to your county commissioners
and have them Immediately set aside
the necessary funds for surfacing
after they have determined the
amount from Guy G. Harvey, dis
trict engineer of the highway depart
ment. Then have the state appro-
pirate one-half the amount neces-
sary for the grading of the 81 miles
which / assume would be about
100000, then match this with fed
eral money to the extent of the
states appropriation plus the appro-
priation by your county commission
ers. In other words, try for $751;
600 from your county, $4,000 from
the state and $150,000 of federal
aid, to match the joint appropr'a-
ton to the state and county. This
ought to put you in a bully rock

ing the motion also carrying clause
making the entertainments annual

campaigns.

that all drivers park parallel with

PULLMAN BANKS IN
PROSPEROUS CONDITION
Total Resources of Two Banks Elk.
coed Those of November II, Last
Year, by $35O,OOO

The report of the condition of the
First National and Pullman State
banks issued in response to the call
of the comptroller of the currency
issued November Is, show the two
local financial institutions to be in
a most flourishing condition, with
total resources exceeding those of
November II, 1919, by approximate
ly $3.50, 900. The report issued this
week shows total resources for the
First National bank on November 1 5,
1920, of 81, 646,910.O8, as against
81 ,539, 1924 A on November II, 1919.
On November II last year the Pull
man State bank had resources total
ing $714 ,4S7.29, while the report is
sued this week shows total resources
on November Is this year of 1885,
304.62
A satisfying feature of the reports
made this week is the gain in de-
posts since the last reports, made
September s. With many farmers
still holding their wheat a decline in
deposits would not have been sur
prising, but instead a healthy in
crease is noted. The combined de-
posits of the two banks on November
II were $1,7S8,269.52, or approx
mately $2S,500 more than two
months ago.
The full reports of the two local
banks are published elsewhere in
this issue of The Herald.

tickets for the game Thursday indi-
Gates that the attendance will exceed
that of the Notre Dame-Nebraska
contest early in the season, when l 1, =

Betting is light, most of it being
placed on the score, even money. Ne
braska has won five games. tied one
and lost two, the tie being with Kan
sas University, and the losses to
Notre Dame, 1871, and Pennsylvania
State, 900. The last Saturdays win
from Michigan Aggies, 80 to z,
