Civic Improvement League Cleanup
Man Around Next Week.

The annual cleanup of the city,
in which the Civic Improvement
league is always one of the prime
factors, will be held next week, and
residents of the city are urged to be
ready when for the cleanup man
when he arrives.
The Civic League asks that all
ashes, scraps, cans, etc, be out in
the alley where it can be reached
handily by the cleanup man, so that
it may be removed and a further
step towards a cleaner Alma made.
This method of cleaning up the re-
fuse ard rubbish that has accumu-
lated during the winter, is one of
the very helpful measures that the
Civic League has for aiding Alma
people in cleaning up their yards
each year, and they should be in
terested enough in the matter TO CO.
operate to the fullest extent in MAX
ing Alma a cleaner, healthier city
in which to live.

BUILDING OPEN
TO THE PUBLIC
Auditorium Large Enough TO
House Conventions, Mass
Meetings and Institutes

The memorial auditorium and
gymnasium to be erected on the AL
ma College campus will serve many
community and county needs. The
College authorities have announced
that the auditorium will be open for
public meetings of a civic or patriotic
nature. The structure is therefore
admirably adapted for institutes,
county conventions, and mass meet
nigs at which large numbers of peo-
pie are expected to gather.
The gymnasium is sixty feet wide
by ninety feet long with a floor
area fifty by seventy arranged for
basket ball, indoor baseball and all
drills or exercises requiring free
space. The modern requirement,
space for spectators Of athletic con-
tests, has been met by the planning
of balconies or raised steps giving
space and view to about three hun
dred and fifty persons. A stage is
provided at the end so that the gym
nasium may be used for auditorium
purposes when desired and with the
central floor and balconies would
seat about nine hundred persons.
Roof trusses provide the means for
suspending gymnasium apparatus
and for supporting it above when
the room is used for assemblies.
This room will be brilliantly
lighted by clere story windows and
large skylight. The windows pro-
vide superior means of natural cross
ventilation. All interior wall sur
faces will be of impervious brick.
The same conditions Of light, venti-
lation and impervious walls prevail
in the natatorioum.
The bath departments are so To-
Gated as to give access to the
gymnasium while the women are US
ing the natatorium or the reverse,
thus using either department by
either sex and both at one time.
Heat will bel supplied from the cen
trail power plant. A dressing room
for visiting teams is shown adjacent
to the baths, as well as an office and
examination room for the physical
director.
The estimated cost of construction
is 100000 Of which approximate
ly $45,OOO0O would be required for
the auditorium, $4,000 for the ma
tatorium and S15,OOOOO each for the
bath and locker divisions.

What part will this community
play in the plan TO establish the
Greater Alma College? 1t is pos
sible that here and there men will
be found who, so far as they are
concerned, will deny the college its
chance to render an increased service
simply because it is located in the
city of Alma. Against such view
only time and tolerance can prevail.
Men and women in distant parts
Of the state are bending every effort
TO make the Greater Alma possible.
What will the home-folks do? The
pending campaign brings to them
the necessity not only of passing
judgment upon the worth Of the
work the college is doing but of re-
cording their interests in that work.

NEW CAR RUMOR
 FALSE SAYS FORD

"We do not contemplate making any changes in our present car models, '' stated w. A. Ryan, General Sales Manager of the Ford Motor Company, Detroit, in denial of the many rumors circulating throughout the country to the effect that Ford intended to change the design of the present car.
 The statement was addressed to the Ford branches in the United States, and reads as follows: Several branches have reported persistent rumors in their territory to the eff feet that a change in body design is contemplated the first of the year, even going so far as to say some of our assembly plants are already receiving shipments of new body ma terial.
 "'We have never considered it good business judgment to make any guar antees covering a definite period on matters of this nature, but you may advise your dealers that these al legged rumors are false, as we do not contemplate any changes in our pres ent car models"
 It was also pointed out that many minor changes had been made in the car during the past year, such as in stalling a slightly different gasoline tank, and changing the size of the steering wheel from twelve to four teen inch, and that these changes will continue to go thru from time to time as they are recommended by Ford's engineers.
