neyed to Mt. Pleasant to take crack
at the Normalites. After winning
the first set, Fry lost to Calkins,
whose speedy serve proved to be a
deciding factor. Porter lost his sim

bles Fry and Porter proved to be a
woodworking combination against
Calkins and Beddows, winning the
match for Alma in three sets.
The results indicate that Alma
should place high in NJ. l. A. A.

is insignificant because Calkins is

BIDS SOUGHT ON
THE GYMNASIUM
CONSTRUCTION WORK ON NEW
ALMA COLLEGE STRUCTURE
TO START IN JUNE.

The Building Committee of the
Board of Trustees of Alma College
is asking for bids on the proposed
concrete gymnasium for the institu-
ton, which is to be constructed dur
ing the coming summer, and which
it is hoped will be ready for use by
the time that basket ball work starts
Immediately following the football
season.
Plans and specifications for the
proposed structure are at the office
Of President Crooks at the College
where they may be viewed Friday
and Saturday by those who may de-
sire to make bids for the construction
of the new building to be erected on
the college campus.
Due to the decline in prices of ma
terials and TO other reasons, it is
believed that the proposed gymnss-
ium, without the natatorium, can now
be bllt for approximately $4,000,
this being a good reduction over
what the structure would have cost
year dBO. II 10 ulluti SlOOu lilell
the plan of the college is to add the
natatorium at later period, possi-
bly, in two or three years as funds
may become available for its con-
struction.
A considerable amount of money
has been paid in on the gymnasium
auditorium pledges from the endow-
ment campaign which is available
for the payment of such of the work
as this fund will cover, and the col
lege has plans for financing the bal
ance until the other payments on the
pledges become due and are paid.
1t is understood that the college
hopes to have the contract for the
structure awarded at an early date
and that ground for the new build
ing can be broken Commencement
