Organization

made on the proposed new Knights OF
Columbus building in Bismarck this
summer, J. NJ. Roherty, Grand Knight
OF the local council, said today. ~
Mr.. Roherty has dispatched a let
ter to every member Of the organiza-
tion asking the members opinion up
on several proposed sites. The local
council expects to have big inltia-
ton during the latter part Of May OF
the first part of June at which time
a definite decision will be made.
The organization now owns the
Stevens property at Thayer and
Third streets. 1t also has options
upon several other sites. Either the
site now owned or one of the sites
on which options are held will be
chosen.

swimming pool will be included in the
basement, and if the basement is
built the swimming pool may also be

nit the building OF tile basement.
