Plans for honoring the returning
Vandals, Idaho's football team, with
a community banquet, and for finan-
clally supporting the annual poultry
show scheduled for December II to
IA inclusive, headed the matters un-
der discussion at the Wednesday lun-
cheon Of the Moscow chamber of COM
merce.
President Lamphere suggested the
banquet as fitting conclusion to
Idaho's successful football season,
and as token of appreciation from
the citizens Of Moscow to the men on
the Vandal squad who have done so
much to impress Idah's name and
reputation upon the whole Pacific
northwest.
Dean M. F. Angel offered the sug-
gestion that the banquet be made
community affair, and that as many
of the twonspeople and faculty of the
university as are interested be invited
to attend This would not only hon
or the team with banquet but would
give every Moscow citizen an oppor-
tunity to personally congratulate the
men on their admirable showing.
Accordingly, upon motion, Presi-
dent Lamphere appointed a commit
IOO " uIdhO ok dI dHSSIuGuIS, luCluQ-
ing the sale of tickets, for the ban
quet. The members of the commit
tee are J. S. Heckathorn, R. S. But
terfield, G. P. Mix, Jerry Gelwick, and
w. S. Snoddy.
Prof. r. T. Parkhurst, head of the
poultry department at the university,
reported that the expected financial
support from the state agricultural
board for the annual poultry show
would not be forthcoming.
Upon motion of Dean Thomson, a
committee was appointed to raise the
5000, estimated necessary to finance
the show. This committee consists
of o. S. Fletcher, Homer E. Estes, and
E. A. Curver.
Poultry Show Benefits Moscow
Prof. Parkhurst, in an interesting
talk, outlined the phases of the poul-
try show which would directly benefit
Moscow. Besides attracting the at
tention of Spokane business houses
interested, many of whom have al
ready donated awards for the show, |
it would bring to Moscow a consid- |
cradle number of farmers from the |
surrounding country, who have here !
tofore carried their products and |
bought their supplies elsewhere |
Many new methods for handling and |
feeding poultry which have been dis
covered by that department of the
university, will be demonstrated to
those attending the show. Not only
will this provide more efficient poul-
try methods for the farmers, but it
will Indirectly prove beneficial to
Moscow business.
Dean M. F. Angel announced the
showing of the second picture of the
Yale historical series of photopIays
at the Kenworthy next Friday and
Saturday.

tions to be discussed, was consider .
