This year the organisation has I attempted to avoid any form of raising money which is solely char 1 liable. For this reason the Band Ball was staged, with Herb Flck's famous Missouri Quadrangle or chestra occupying the spotlight.

Support is Appreciated The Band Ball executive commit tee expressed its appreciation for the loyal manner in which the stu dent body, campus organizations, and Lincoln business men respond ed to the project Three weeks yet remain before the game at West Point, and the executive committee is confident that the sum needed can be raised in the intervening time..
