University Chest Drive Hits Bingo
"We're over the top again this year," said Dr. F. C. Allen, chairman of the University division of the Community Chest campaign, "but we're not through yet."
He requested that all faculty members do not neglect to contribute because the quota has been reached, for the contributions from downtown Lawrence have fallen below the desired goal.
Although several drive captains had not yet reported, yesterday's total of $1,763.44 exceeded the quota of $1,709.95 by $52.27. Ten per cent was added to last year's total of $1,-554.50 to allow for U.S.O. activities. "It is because of the U.S.O. that we are trying to exceed our quota as much as possible," Doctor Allen explained.
Doctor Allen was enthusiastic in his praise of the spirit in which the money was given. "The contributions were made in the most intelligent spirit I have ever seen," Dr. Allen commented. "Even employees of the buildings and grounds department responded in a manner that surpassed our highest expectations."
Contributions will still be taken in Doctor Allen's office, 105 Robinson gymnasium.

The financial reports for each month are always posted in each
