The annual drive for funds by the Phillips Brooks House Association will officially begin tonight at 6.15 when the collectors will dine at the Phillips Brooks House. The intensive campaign will continue until Friday when it is hoped the quota of $4000 for the college and $1000 for the graduate schools will be completed.
The speakers at the dinner will first speak of the work done by the association, after which R. H. Field '26, treasurer, will explain the drive for funds and outline the system. Mr. W. J. Bingham '16, former track coach, and prominent in Phillips Brooks House activities while he was in college. Mr. Arthur Beane '12, former graduate secretary of the association and present treasurer of the Graduate Advisory Committee, and Mr. W. I. Tibbets '17, present graduate secretary, will be the speakers before the technical aspect of the drive is explained.
It is hoped that all of the 81 collectors will be in attendance at the dinner. The three sub-chairmen already named have been placed in charge of separate districts. S. W. Bridges Jr. '26 will be responsible for the Mt. Auburn district, Davidson Sommers '26, of the Yard district. E. W. Marshall '26 of the Freshman Dormitory district, and the collectors will be assigned to smaller divisions within these districts.
Not only these sub-chairmen, but the men in charge of the graduate schools drive, will be present at the dinner tonight. Since it will be impossible to reach all members of the University personally, students living at home are urged to send their contributions to the Phillips Brooks House or the Crimson Building. Office hours will be kept by the committee in the Crimson Building tonight from 9 to 10.30 o'clock, and at the same hour tomorrow night and Friday.
