. occupied much Of the time of the
board of trade at the weekly luncheon
Yesterday A. w. Hoover from the
entertainment committee, stated that
formal notice had been received that
SO delegates would attend and that
there would probably be more than
that number He further said that
tickets for the banquet had been print
ed and that he would give every mem
/ Ter an opportunity to buy one and also
take a few extra to sell. The price
of the tickets had been fixed at 81, al
though it was probable that the cost
of the banquet would be $3.50 per plate
There would be at least SO guests who
would not pay and it was therefore de
sirable to make as large a sale as pos
sble to offset the free list
