Opelika, Ala, December 6.-(Spe-
ciaL)-The proposal made to move
the Alabama Polytechnic Institute
from Auburn to Montgomery is detrl-
mental to the success of the cam
paign for the college and extremely
unfortunate according to resolutions
adopted by the Rotary club of Ope-
lika.
The resolutions as adopted are as
follows;
BE it resolved by the Opelika
Rotary club:
That the proposal of the Mont
gomery Business Men to move Au-
burn to Montgomery is extremely un-
timely and unfortunate and against
the best interests of the Institution.
That the proposal coming at this
time Is detrimental to the success
of the drive for a Greater Auburn.
THAT the present location of the
institution Is better suited in every
way for the efficient and successful
accomplishment of its purpose to
serve the people of the state, than at
any other location
THAT the Opelika Rotary club is
strongly opposed to such proposed
movement, believing that it is
against the best interests of the In
stitution and that we invite these
business men Of Montgomery to lend
their energies toward building up the
present institution rather than en-
couraging propaganda which cannot
do otherwise than injure Auburn
