$25,000 CONTRIBUTED TO LOAN

Team Six Leads in University Canvass with Total of $6,550

Saturday's subscriptions to Liberty Bonds in the University were about the same as for the day before, but less than that collected during the first days of the campaign. The Committee had hoped that the last day of Liberty Bond Week would bring in a large amount. According to the figures on hand a little over $2,000 was collected. The total for the six days' campaign is approximately $25,000, of which amount $1,350 came from Team 6 yesterday, which now leads the competition with a collection of $6,550. The total amounts subscribed to through the teams which have handed in their reports are as follows: Team 1  $2550 Team 2  4050 Team 4  1600 Team 6  6550 Team 7  3850 Team 8  4560

Besides collecting this appreciable sum, the teams have done much by their canvassing to advertise the loan and to increase its publicity. It has also led indirectly to many subscriptions through Cambridge and other banks which would not otherwise have been encouraged.

The subscriptions reported include in Team 2 $700 from the 1919 Red Book fund, and $250 from the Junior Class fund; in Team 3, $250 from the Junior Class fund, and in Team 1 $200 from the Senior Class fund.
