FEW MEN AGAIN ANSWER
THE PRESIDENTS CALL
Tot the second consecutive Satur
day afternoon, President Sparks matt
handicapped In his efforts to clean up
the athletic field back of the baseball
bleachers by lack of a sufficient number
of students to assist Ott the first oc
casion. Once men turned out, anti last
Saturday the number was incteased to
twelve. Nest Battalion while Doctor
Smelts will not be present In person,
he is hoping that morn men will turn
out to finish the work.
AS ham been stated bonne, the object
of the work Is first of ill, to inevent
lire by cleaning up all the 1 übblsh and
dead leaves that are so plentiful. A
secondary object will be to plant grass
seed in order to beautify that section of
the campus However, the college Is
not able to pay for this troth, and as
the athletic field belongs to the students
It to hoped that they will attend to Its
care
It wan unfortunate that no many
athletic attractions were hero last
Saturday, for no doubt the track moot
and the baseball game drew bomo stu
dents who would othernino have
helped In the work. Doctor Sparks de

No gavel nenint unite have been sent
