BROOKS HOUSE WILL OPEN DRIVE TONIGHT

College Expected to Subscribe $4000 Toward Total Fund--Drive Will Be Closed on Friday Night

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Four thousand dollars is the quota which has been set for the undergraduate body in the annual financial drive for the Phillips Brooks House Association. The campaign, which will be very short and intensive, ending Friday night, will be launched at a dinner at 6.15 o'clock this evening at the Phillips Brooks House. All collectors for the fund have been invited to attend.

The undergraduate quota will be solicited by 85 collectors, each of whom will be assigned a certain district to cover. The three sub-chairmen, Lawrence Coolidge '27, L. H. Duggan '27, and R. A. Magowan '27, will be in charge of the Mt. Auburn Freshmen and Yard Districts, respectively.

Graduate School Quota

The quota for the Graduate Schools has been set at $1500. R. L. Olson 3 Gr. will be in charge of the drive in all the graduate schools in Cambridge excepting the Law School. R. K. Stevens 3L will run the Law School campaign, T. G. Klumpp 3M, the Medical School, and N. G. Newman 4DM the Dental School. The campaign in the graduate schools will be run over a longer period of time and largely by personal letters.

Dinner to Be Short

At the dinner this evening there will be a few short talks outlining the technical and general aspects of the drive. The dinner will be very short. Arrangements have been made so that it will be over in time for those present desiring to do so to attend the moving pictures at the Union at 7.30 o'clock. M. A. Cheek '26, president of the Phillips Brooks House Association, will preside at the dinner. Short talks will be given by W. J. Bingham '16, a former president of the association and former track coach, and by W. I. Tibbets '17, graduate secretary. F. V. Field, '27, treasurer, will explain the details of the drive to the collectors.
